It's not about looks, but continuity. Man...I've spent WAAAY to many years showing cars for something like a shift knob to bother me.

next best thing to having the RR knob...

here's the new setup.... remember where you saw it first!

I've gone through...S2k Titanium knob, ARC Titanium knob & Circuithero knob, this is easily my favorite combo.

FD2 boot, Weighted Razo Black Leather/Red Stitch knob.

FD2 boot was from ICB - jdmland.com. I had the Euro CTR boot but sold it to a friend.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing. That should've been the color for the baseball Barry Bonds hit to break Hank Aaron's record

Nice knob. Does it thread right on or does it use set screws?

threads on with an included adaptor. it fits very well, i'm really picky about these things. Also sits nice and low just like circuithero...so it will seem as if you have a short shifter.

I have to agree with you on that one^^^^^^^^^^^^^^,

I don't think our stock shift knobs are that bad :dunno:. I do like that voodoo knob though.

Thre is nothing special about the Mugen Si knob at all.

The black Razo knob looks good on your car(blue rocket) But the vinyl boot needs to be black leather red stitches.

Sorry I'm not trying to make fun or poke at you just giving you my opinion

I personally love the soft feel of the FD2 boot, for some wierd reason, i've never liked real leather shift boots!
