Default Need a new shiftknob - 05 STi

Hey guys!

I have the factory titanium shift knob on my 05 Sti, I guess it was an option but its so small and is either freezing cold or a thousand degrees after work, depending on the season.

I want something taller, easier to grip and won't be so damn temperamental. Anything out there that clears the reverse key? What all do you have for your STis?

They make a wide range of custom shift knobs that are beautifully made. That’s what I had on my 5-speed and have on my 6-speed.

Look for a shift knob made from Duracon. They usually do great with the temperature shifts. My favorite is the one that Cusco makes for the 6 speed STi

My favorite shift knob. I have a 2nd one for when it wears down. Only produced for JDM STIs. Notice the different perforation pattern, and color.

I got a knob from https://www.raceseng.com/ and I'll never look back. The core is pretty heavy so it feels like it's also smoothed out my shifts a bit.
