Twist it like you are pist off at it. It unscrews like a typical bolt. The problem is they use lock tite when it was initially installed. So it takes alot of brute force to twist it.

yeah my s13's knob was a ***** to get off. try wrapping the shift knob in a rag and use a big set of pliers to help. otherwise you usually just end up putting a lot of unnecissary strain on your wrist.
