I will buy. My only complaint with my blox is it sits a little higher than I hoped

Edit: The type R style

Sounds good but NOT like this:

The Skunk2 one is the closest to what I've been looking for.

Ideally just like the OEM Honda aluminum one, but shorter.





Please feel free to PM me once you have something like this ready.

Ordered a Moddiction knob, instead of many others... TWM, Blox, and another lesser known company on these boards: WC Latheworks. I have one of theirs on my STi, deeply countersunk, nice piece.

Looking forward to getting the Moddiction knob!

I can see what I can do about making one same design as oem just made of stainless steel and countersunk with 6 speed engraving and all. Should be doable.

^Just and FYI my newer design shift knobs now are completely height adjustable as they are opened wider to allow 2 nuts to be adjusted on the shifter lever and hidden inside the shift knob to completely adjust the height.
Wow that's a great idea!

Tried CR knob, ARC, J's racing, voodoo, most common knobs that s2k owners use.
I hated it (Round Counter Sunk), and went back to leather stock s2k knob.

Skunk2 knob is one of better knob that i liked compared to others.

^^ That's what I have right now and it sits too high for me. Weight I believe is around the same as the oem leathered knob.
