There is a group buy on the 5 speed RX-8 shift **** in the group buy section of the forum.

Remember this know will only fit on the S5 and later shifters.

Do a search on the net.. A while ago while i was looking for a short shifter, i came across a websit with some dude who has a machine shop who actually made a round, aluminum shift know with a rotor engraved in the top and they were about the same price as a momo... It was pretty slick. but that aint my thing

Here is the link for the aluminum shift ***** with the rotor engraved.
http://mazdaracing.com/shifter.htm

I should add that some people dont endorse this company. Do a search if you are interested to know why.
