Which shift knob?
I just bought my rx7. And am not too too fond of the shift knob. Certainly different than my previous shift knob. I am asking for suggestions. Money is no issue. Thank you greatly.

Get the rx8 shift knob from www.rx7.com (not sure who else sells it). It has the 5 speed gear pattern on the top. Really nice quality, but expensive which shouldn't be a problem since you said money is not an issue.

mazdaspeed is my favorite especially if you add the leather shift boot and brake cover..looks classy. It's a little larger than stock with a much better feel/grip and it says mazda speed vertically stamped into the black leather
|
I would go for any mazdaspeed shift knob.
|
I'm perfectly happy with my $7-from-ebay miata shift knob.
|
Am I the only one who doesnt find the Rx8 shiftknob appealing?
I have/like the Mazdaspeed carbonfiber shiftknob (the skinny stick one? lol) and ball shiftknobs. |
I was just guessing he wouldn't like the mazdaspeed leather shift knob since it is just like the stock one which he wants to get rid of.

I like the feel of the shift knob, it really does feel good in my hand, however, to me its not good when im trying to heel and toe or double clutch. ill check out mazdaspeed and rx8 shift knob. any more suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

i like the one i have, its a shifter out of a stock 2003 WRX, its made by momo, its covered in black leather and it dose have the 5 speed marking's on it.
the reason's why i like it. 1. i shift from the top so the round top of the knob fits better and feel's good. 2 it screw's right onto my stock s5 shifter, 3. the bottom of the shifter fits through the stock hole in the boot, just like the stock s5's. I dont have a pic of it, sorry. |
Where did you get the stock wrx shifter? ebay, or just found a junked shifter?
thank you greatly brandon |
also, more picture please. thanks

It's a lighted, rotary shaped knob that some of us purchased thru a group buy led by herblenny on the forum. I still think the knob is one of the best purchases I've made. Looks like it was meant for the FD. |
