Finished the PC build, now back to the BRZ. Ordered a Racesend Sphereology Shift knob. Black Delrin, polished interior with engraving. They are 30% off so I couldn't miss out on it.

Probably going to update the side lip kit, but do it right this time. They need to be painted to prevent the fading mine have been subjected to. Thinking maybe an off-brand STi style side lips.

Delrin is an amazing material. I first learned about it with PC watercooling, Dangerden used it in some of their waterblocks and it was amazing.
I love Delrin in a shift knob as well, I have always wanted to get a super expensive shift knob to see what it was like! I have the Tomei duracon knob and I find it hard to beat. It's tempting to get one of these knobs just to have

I miss the joy of waiting/receiving car parts. For now, my only joy is hitting the oil change intervals and using the Fumoto valve.



Oil Change performed, 37K miles, Castrol Full Synthetic 0W-20. I have officially put 20K miles into the vehicle in exactly two years of ownership!

I can send you random mystery part/s for you to install out of my bin of stuff I no longer use.

I pretty much double that mileage and that is with about a 70% reduction in what I drove on a regular basis 3 years ago.
