Momo has no quality at all, waste of money IMO.

 

I like the look and sound of this 1 so I ordered it! For only 50 bucks! Not to shabby!

 

if only it didn't have Skunk2 engraved in it, but at least its tasteful

 

Yea that part of it sux ass! That was holding me back on buying it but hopefully itll be ok with it on there hehe. Kind of a dumb thing to have engraved on there. I wonder how many sales theyve lost out on as a result of the engravement on there. Probably quite a few

 

I have MOMO satin finish shift knob and love it. It is match with dash kits. Pic: http://www.neuspeed.com/products/product_details.asp?app=63|TX&type=16&ltype=ns_imp ort&p_id=1396 Check it out!

 

Yeah, I could have done without that, but (in my opinion, anyway) it doesn't really detract from the look. I really don't notice it at all, and neither does anyone who sits in the car with me. I like the look a lot more than the stock knob -- just odd that it's gold and the whole rest of the interior is silvers, greys, and blacks. (Well, I guess there is the tan interior...)

 

the skunk2 one looks nearly identical to the JDM DC5R Honda knob

 

do you have links to some pics?

this would be a cheap fix to some who feel the mt throws are a little too long...

 

The T1R is kind of like the Voodoo knob which sinks in deeper on the shift lever. It shortens the throw while increases shifting effort due to less leverage. The short shift kit for the TSX does not shorten the actual height. Instead, it lengthens the bottom to reduce the shift throw without changing the shifting effort.

 

Why do you say that?

<---- Has never seen or used a MOMO shift knob.

I'm leaning towards the skunk2 right now. Like the fact that it threads right on, the look and love that its heavier.

 

They all break?

 

Its interesting that he says they have no quality. Alot of those knobs are going for $80+ on ebay. I'm not doubting him, but I'd like to hear other opinions on this.

 

I had the momo competition before on my old MX-3.

I had a few other ones...but the momo competition was the best grip for me. It's pretty heavy.

Got damn hot in the summer though.

 

picked up one of the skunk2 units based on peter_bigblock's recommendation.

Thanks!

 

That looks great! I have the JDM Honda Euro R all silver knob in my 06. It was only around $60 on ebay from an importer. It looks very similar to yours with the red engraving on top, but is basically the same shape as the TSX OEM knob. I would post pics, but everyones cars are so clean inside! Mine is a mess as I work in it all day long...Maybe I will clean it up and post some pics.

 

I really like the Momo Race knob.....but which one is best?








This one is pretty sweet too!

 

Well, thanks to peter_bigblock, I went ahead and ordered the Skunk2 knob as well. I wanted a heavier knob and I just love the color. Looks like the next best thing to an OEM or S2K knob and definently cheaper.

Only problem is they're back ordered so it may be a few weeks.

Thanks Peter

 

is "dew" French for "two"?

 

 

The skunk2 is 2.4mm thinner than the stock but it's the heaviest of them all. However, I still like Dan's much better.

 

wow that Momo is a lot bigger. Thanks for the comparision pics!

 

Thanks Johnny!! Where did you get that pic? Do you have them all?

I agree that Dan's is the best, too bad. But I'm kinda gald I went with the skunk after seeing that pic. Now if the damn thing would just get here.

 

Yeah, I got them all. The skunk2 is heavy and cold. It feels much smaller when comparing with the Momo. The Momo feels the best in my hand due to the larger size and leather wrap.

Btw, the Momo might seem taller in the pic, but the actual mounting height is about the same as the other knobs. the bottom part is just the ring covering the set screws.

 

Your too much.

 

I think that we're truly blessed to be given such a great OEM knob. It's really beautiful, feels great and matches the interior perfectly.

 

Woo that Skunk2 10th annv version is nice....

I have RSX aftermarket one from Acura/Honda.


Come out come out ta-da=-

 

I luv the way Spoon and AJ's Burnt Titanium one but its $$$ and super light (no like).

 

I don't have all the knobs out there, just the three in the pic.

 

A cover for your knob? :gheylaugh:

 

Looks like he was holding the damn thing hostage. So what was the cover for, keeping it warm?

 

it's actually a pretty common practice, a lot of s2000 owners use knob covers b/c the original s2000 came w/ an all metal knob. doesn't make it any less :ghey: though

 

You want to protect that finish. You can't be polishing your knob all the time... people might look at you funny.

 

I knew you guys would like it, yup to keep it warm/winter and during summer it helps alittle.

 

Has anyone used these tubes before? I really like how the the black one looks but dont really know how the tube would feel instead of the ball

 

The knobs got to go...

You couldn't have done this 2 weeks ago?

So what are getting in place of them? Or you staying with the stock knob?

 

I only got it like a few days ago. I have this condition that I buy stuffs just to look at them and take pictures, then sell them. Everyone please take advantage of my illness.

I might just use the stocker for awhile.

 

Just let me know when you plan to buy and sell something alittle earlier next time.

 

Mugen shift knob pics:

Comparison shot of OEM & Mugen knob


It is also a little wider than the OEM knob, here is another comparison shot.


With the Mugen locking nut it sits at stock height but I think it feels higher, because it's a bigger knob. (Red arrow points at Mugen locking nut).


Here are some other shots of the Mugen knob installed.






It is also lighter than the OEM weighing in at approx: .25 grams

 

The lock nut does make it look kinda tall. Can you not use the lock nut and just crank it down or use the stock nut?
