SSK performance Knob+stock shifter= not bad!

yuyue · 05-01-2008, 12:06 PM

received my performance knob this morning

, I just couldn't believe how small and heavy it is.

simply pulled the old one away and replaced with this new one
it feels much better than the stock even without short shifter

why a simple knob could improve this alot? BTW, I haven't driven any honda S2K, I don't know how short on S2K. so...at least my shifter is good for me right now

next step is looking for some short shifters which have a stainless pivot ball

I'm was thinking of doing the same thing. Any before and after pictures?

yuyue · 05-01-2008, 11:46 PM

I want to do the same thing since I will be replacing the car soon. Where did you get just the knob and for how much ?

Is this knob weighted (I assume yes because you noted how heavy it was)? How heavy compared to the stock knob? I like the idea of a shorter weighted knob, but don't like the looks of the M knob or the ZHP one.
