Tomei Duracon. I would have to say it's been the best shift knob I have ever owned.

Love this Nismo one.

I have a Greddy knob like this one. I like it, other than how hot it gets, because it's nice and heavy and counters the "notchiness" of the B&M short shifter in my car.

I have the Tenzo-R Shift Knob, it costs just under $50



As you can see, it has 2 different weights that can be switched out or not used at all.

I prefer the heaviest knob to help prevent mis-shifts.In my opinion it is the best shift knob you can buy because of its versatility.
I have this same knob in my rx7, best one i've ever used. I bought it for around 30 bucks two years ago though, I was looking to get it now but its around 70ish+shipping wherever I look so I CS got the weighted high adjustable one from enjuku

This is the sweetest shift knob I've ever seen, imo. I want one.

I saw this one awhile ago, it was on here somewhere, it's pretty sweet too. Anyone know where to get this knob?

The Monsterknobs shift knob is the only one I now use for all my cars. Went through a few Nismo pieces, all of which were too expensive, too small, or just not comfortable enough. Bought a few aftermarket knobs all of which were too heavy (bad for the syncros/block rings in the transmission). again too small or were not direct fit replacements.

The Monsterknob on the other hand is direct thread on fit, perfect size at 2", never gets hot in direct sunlight or cold in the middle of winter, and more importantly is not weighted. Feels great especially with a short shifter. I'll post up a pic as soon as I figure out what I did to my friggin camera cable. But really, it is a simple gloss black, spherical shift knob.

Sadly enough I believe that shift knob in the pic above is from a C6 Corvette. GM fail.

like gumby said monsterknob looks just fine and its made with some special shiat that doesnt get hot or cold or you could get something made out of duracon like the tomei ones that everybody is drooling about
