Shift knobs

[cmarsh90]

I ended up getting my dad the SOS rapidshift in satin finish for father's day. Installed in a snap, and it's awesome, reminds of my S2000.

Here are the pictures of the Gruppe M shift knob solution.

As I said, $1.08 in parts; it might work for some and others may want a much $hinier finish .........

Anyone know how to install the shift boot? Is it pretty straitforward?

Thanks,

It's no big deal. Chris has a detailed link at www.scienceofspeed.com. It took about 15 minutes total.

Anyone know if the 'other' SoS NSX-R type knob (the non titanium one) has the 6-speed pattern on it?

That 'non titanium' metal is aluminum. Perfectly appropriate metal for an NSX, in my opinion. Especially since the interior is devoid of much metal - it reminds one of the elegant metal from which an NSX is hewn.

I got one of these 'non titanium' ones - why pay the big bucks for titanium, to me that is just sophistry - and I love it. The feel is great, and as the SoS website says, it is the lowest riding shift knob available. It is so low, that it makes a shortened shifter unnecessary. (IMHO)

Thanks to this picture, and the fact that my console has been torn apart the last week due to an OEM Head Unit swap fiasco (http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18989).

I've also taken the plunge and violated the near-stock nature of my car.

My only concern is whether or not the NSX-R boot will clash with an otherwise stock interior, since nothing else in the interior of our cars has carbon fibre? Aaron, can you comment?

 

[AaronR]

It doesn't clash at all. In fact most people don't even notice it has changed (probably becuase it looks so stock) and fites the same as stock. Also 100% suggested

I'm using the spoon knob, looks like this (black one):

Sorry no pics of the knob on the car, but it works great. The knob is made from some weird plastic, so it doesn't heat up in the sun.
