Shift Knobs
Seems like too many people are obsessed with how a shift knob looks and prioritize that over what really matters. I don't give a damn about burnt titanium or any of that crap that raises the price 200%. As long as it's weighted to my liking and feels good I'm all for it.
I had a WC LatheWerks copoly sphere which I loved on my old WRX, so I ended up ordering one of the same for my S. It's amazing how much difference a fraction of an inch of height makes on the shifter in this car. The knob by itself was very notchy, but after I shimmed it up with the stock lock nut it's quite smooth. It's still a little light, though, so I'm kinda wishing I'd gone with the steel version of the knob, or the SoS Zanardi replica.

Anyone know of any other manufacturers that make taller than stock knobs?



When the time comes for me to get a new knob thatl be the one 
my ARC Ti, but it gets friggin hot when the sun hits it.
