Custom shifters!
 
I just finished modifying my shifter and was wondering what ideas people have come up with for their shifters. I've seen tons of different ones from screw driver handles to sockets. If you have one, post it up!

Heres mine:

my friend has always thought of making a "hand" shift knob. so it's as if you're holding hands with someone. :rofl: freakin' random.

Believe it or not, I HATED the stock shifter. I have big hands and could never really get a good grip on the stock one. This works a lot better.

Hypertek 09-09-09 01:38 PM

waiting for the red Mario Mushroom shift knob to surface along with the dildo shift knobs..

^ Thats pretty OG...

I was thinking about the closed end but cut the wrench off un-centered. When I put the closed end on it, I went to test shift to 3rd and knocked out all my center vents. >.<

It *was* a 1 1/4" wrench btw.

A mario mushroom would be sick, Oh how about a yoshi or some cool retro toy like that.

Wow. Uncomfortable and ugly while retaining a certain "ghetto" feel as well.

+1, it would probably be easier to handle/ grip with too.

EvilWankel 09-10-09 01:18 PM

Man, I cant imagine how hot that would get here in Las Vegas. I wouldnt even be able to touch it.

look at my manly hurst pistol grip (crafted from chuck norris's handl lol lol lol) works great with short shifter and solid motor mounts. gets a little hot tho

A wrench is pretty neat. I've seen dildos, upside down liquor bottles, NO knob, actual pool cue/8 ball.

I used to have a chrome ball my friend nicknamed the Death Star because it would set your hand on fire. My friend gave me his old WRX shift knob. It's a bit meatier than stock but still simple. I like it :)
