Purpose
To be the ultimate one and only performance luxury shift knob. Our famous shift knob is designed after the uber rare factory 98+ Spec JDM Leather Wrapped MR2 knob which was close to perfection after being more than 7-10+ years of development. However, due to that knob being released on the final send off year that the MR2 was offered, the knob is as rare as a unicorn. Fret not, we have reproduced and made the knob even better. Fortunately, these knobs looks and works great on many other vehicles.
Weighted
Our shift knob is TWICE as heavy (350grams) versus OEM version and people love it! Weighted shift knobs are commonly preferred in motorsports, tuning and luxury car world. Smoother, easier, quicker and more direct shifts and not to mention, a premium shifting feel is to be expected from using a heavier knob. Gone are the days of hollow, notchy, cheap feeling shifting experience.
OEM+ quality, materials, feel and refinement. Tough durability.
Our knobs are multi layered, it's first encased with thick soft premium leather, glued in and stitched together by heavy duty thick nylon threads. Leather reduces thermal shocks from freezing or burning hot weather and feels great to touch.
Next layer is our bespoke nylon molded plastic layer for our ergonomic shift knob shape and to help achieve the perfect precise optimized weight and the right amount of aesthetics. It further adds to thermal insulation and premium feel by being placed underneath leather.
Finally, to complete our perfect shift knob, a threaded weighted metal core for heavy duty use and tough durability. Metal is better than plastic or soft aluminum like other knobs out there which don't last or feel good. Gone are the days of plastic threads stripping or knobs breaking apart, as no cheap flimsy low grade plastic bits are used here.
Well why doesn't knobs like this come standard from MR2 factory or most performance tuner CNC shops you ask? High production time, delicate craftsmanship, complexity with operating necessary molds and high costs. Simply put, most don't have these capabilities and cant. Knobs of this caliber are usually only found on OEM high end performance luxury vehicles.
