I kinda like the stock knob but the previous owner must have worn a ring on his right hand because the top of it is all scratched. From what I can find by searching the OEM knob is about $112 US. Anyone know where I can get it cheaper? Or suggest any other knobs besides the ones below?

MOMO Competition



MOMO ALUMINUM SPHERE



MOMO Race

 

Personally I think an all metal shift knob would get pretty uncomfortable. Never used one though.

 

the stock knob does feel a little small at times.

is the momo race with leather or rubber?

 

I believe its leather. Ya its small but I kinda like the look and feel. Just wish it wasn't so expensive.

 

Other - Waiting for the Acurazine knob by Dan Martin.

 

So was I, but its not happening.

And I've seen Dan's knob Its perfect. Great color shape and weight.

I'll think I'll try and steal it next time I see him

 

is the price listing for acura? would the price change if you were to visit a honda dealership?

 

I like the stock knob the best, it looks good and not cold in the winter and hot in the summer. I have a metal knob on my bimmer, I need to wear glove even it is not sub zero(°C) outside.

 

Take pics after you install it

 

Comptetition
Race
Aluminum Sphere

 

Race seems like the best choice to me, and sphere isn't too bad, but it might not match the hue of the TSX's silver bits around the interior. The Competition knob is a little too blingy for an understated interior like the TSXs.

 

I think the stock knob > *

You can see them floating around for $40-45ish, check out Accord or RSX forums, they're often selling TSX knobs

 

You would think there be more floating around here though.

And I kinda want a new knob. The car needs something thats mine if you know what I mean.

 

I want one too, but my expernce with metal knobs is they make your had sweat in traffic/heat

 

That's what she said

 

Someone is looking to get

 

Spoon Ti?? hahhaa...JDM baby

I've drove with the competition and Race before, and persoally, i think the Race is actually more comfortable. The competition looks nice though, i love the shape. But MOMO is famous for its sphere shapped knob and it's actually real comfortable, so i voted RACE!!

 

How about the Mugen shift knob?


Wish I could see more angles of it though.

 

Nice, price?

 

$99 USD

That may match the TSX's interior nicely too.

 

what color interior is your new PWP?

 

The S2K (one of them anyway) has the same knob, only the shift pattern is painted black instead of red. I recall at some point seeing them on clearance for a relatively good price on one of the Honda parts web sites, maybe handa-accessories, assume such a price would be available again at some point if you're not in a hurry.

 

I had the Momo Race Airleather (the exact one you picture, with the all-leather ball). I liked it a lot, felt good in my hand, but it was light-weight and, with the short shifter kit installed, I wanted a heavier knob. I also actually missed the smaller stock knob a little. So, I went with THIS SKUNK2 KNOB and I love it. It's about twice the weight of the stock knob, or about four times the weight of the Momo. It has a 6spd pattern engraved on top, and it's a dark gunmetal stainless steel that is very stealth against the dark grey of the center console, shift boot, etc. (my interior is Ebony). It reminds me of what I think Dan's knob (shift knob, that is) would look like if it were gunmetal. It gets a little cold in the winter, but I drive with driving gloves year-round so it doesn't bother me. When I have used it in winter without gloves, it warms up pretty quickly and stays warm long after the car's been turned off.

The "Skunk2" etched on the knob looks MUCH more prominent in the picture than in person. In person, it's very subtle. And it's threaded exactly for our shifter shaft and comes with a matching locknut (so no adapters, etc.). I'll take a photo tonight and post it if anyone wants me to.

HERE"S an ebay link to it.

 

Please post pics

 

As I asked before in another thread... does a Momo knob fit on an Automatic TSX? I have no idea...

 

I have a 6MT. You should post a link of the exact Momo knob for the 5AT in question and if someone here has installed it or is at least familiar with it you might get some feed back.

 

Yes! Please post pics!

Also, I think the stock knob is a little to low for my tastes, if it were maybe a centimeter higher or so it would be better. With this skunk2 knob, is it possible to adjust the height of it? Is it possible to have it higher than the stock knob or even lower if 1 desired?

 

nah, Unless it fits a 8mm or M8 Thread, Momo knobs dont normally fit the TSX.

 

i have one of dan martin's knobs

i was thinking about selling it and getting a titanium one.

but i feel special having a one of a kind knob.

:troutslap <- long live the troutslap

 

Momo has an universal mounting system which includes different size inserts to fit just about any shift levers.

 

You can adjust the height of either the stock or Skunk2 knob. Simply loosen the lock nut, unscrew the knob a turn or two or however many give you the height you want (obviously leaving the knob still substantially threaded to the shifter shaft), and tighten the lock nut back to the bottom of the knob. Voila, taller knob.

I'll post pics shortly (wife's using the camera for birthday party). Bear in mind, in my pics the knob is very low. I didn't use the lock nut, the knob is secured by Loctite. I like 'em SHORT. The knob itself, however, is very similar in size to the stocker, maybe a little thicker and definitely heavier.

 

Here are a couple photos of the Skunk2 knob in my car:

 

That does look really good, Peter. The photo on the website doesn't do it justice. Looks to be a similar shape to the stocker, too.

 

I just bought a T1R knob. Really like it since it sits much lower than the stock knob.

This has the nice effect of also shortening the shift throws without a short shift kit.

The burnt titanium effect is also very cool. Yes it is cold in the winter, but warms up quick!

 

I have a extra OEM shift knob! if you are intersted in PM me!

 

For an Automatic? All I got was some small closed ended rubber caps, they didnt seem universal at all! I ended up returning it!

 

Peter that looks awesome.

 

Not sure about the fitment on the AT or if it can be modified to fit. I was referencing the MT.

 

personally i like this one
