Default Shift Knobs

I bought the Team Voodoo titanium knob from Rick's and I loved it! I still do. I recently, however, purchased the Zanardi / Type S shift knob from Science of Speed. I must say that the Zanardi shift knob it is the best shift knob that I have ever had the pleasure of using. It is amazing to me that a knob could make such a profound difference in the feel of a car. Kudos to Science of Speed for a fabulous knob!

I am interested to hear what others have found as their "ultimate knob". Lets hear from you guys!

I've never used one of these, but I've been told they're fantastic. I want one.
Right now I'm using some countersunk round knob, similar to the Voodoo knob, that my friend gave me from like 5 years ago.

I also have the Black Voodoo knob, and I love it-- I just wish it was a little heavier.

If I'm going to spend like 150+ on my car, it won't be in knob form

Hey I will be selling some shortly that will be 1 lb a piece basically. Same size as voodoo but made of steel to give a really good weight. I've made some already but gotta produce more and then I guess I will have to pay the sponsor thing to sell em but I will have some really nice weighted ones for a really good price too

Yeah I have a similar one on my car now and the weight makes shifting feel so much better. I will be making a brushed look one clear powdercoated, a polished one with clear powdercoat, black powdercoated one, gun metal one and hopefully a burned look one. I will let you know when I have them and I'm legit to sell and all.

I just have a cheap Vision gunmetal shift knob in mine. Nothing fancy, but it looks good and works.

I still haven't found the perfect knob, but I do like what I'm currently running. It's an old school 5-speed Prelude knob. I'm still looking for something to sit slightly higher than where this knob sits. I was looking at the SOS knob, but after sitting all day in the California sun the old plastic Honda knob is a lot easier on my hand.

Now if only I could find a tall, weighted, and covered knob that fits a Honda I'd be set. I'm tired of the Nissan and Toyota guys having all the good options.
