Default FBM Weighted Shift Knobs

After we had completed the V160 conversion, I was in search of a shift knob but could not find any that I liked. The Toyota uses a different thread pitch then Honda ones, there for we were limited to mostly TRD ones.

We decided to make our own weighted shift knobs. These are just a hair under 1 lb. each. They are available in standard Honda thread pitch (10mm) or Toyota Thread pitch (12mm)

List Price $95/each

The round ones are 2" in diameter

lol LJ you know how many hours I spent looking on the net for an S2000 style shift knob that threaded on the supra shifter, nice work! You plan on adding a leather wrapped version like the AP2?

Neema, LOL I spend days looking for one. I could prob get someone to wrap it. Im just not sure how long it will last. You might tear the leather right off with your super shifting skills

Hahaha plus if its leather wrapped where you would etch the bad-ass full blown logo...I guess you are right. James is also interested in one of these and is jealous of all the S2000 parts you are making, I will continue to rub it in his face.

This is exactly what I need! Looking for a nice knob to go with my Nissan gearbox. Just need to check thread size.

Tell us more about the black color, paint? Anodized? Really nice.

LJ, you should cut a band in the billet around the shifter that's similar in shape to the OEM 02-03 style and just wrap that part with nice leather and stitching. Basically make it just like the OEM 03 style even with the gears etched in the top, but make it have more weight if you can and thread down deeper to make it sit shorter.
