will all shift knobs be engraved? personally i like it without any writing on it, like the original prototype pictures.
For the first generation TL, which is all auto, you can just take any manual honda shift knob and screw it on. For example my skunk2 shift knob fits perfectly on and works, looks really stupid though. :tongue: |
The 2nd pic looks great. Good job...looks off tha hook man. :thumbsup:

Prototype knobs look great!!!! :toocool: Fantastic work!!! :bow: Although, I'm with my fellow Acuraziner and will be ordering with no engraving when available :jump: |
Just thinking aloud here, and please correct me if I'm wrong...
For the automatic transmission equipped Acura/Honda's that utilize the no-button gear selector, it shouldnt really be that difficult to make this or any other shift knob made for manual transmissions compatible for the slushmatics. The gear selector knob is threaded (just like the manual knob), and if the manual knob doesnt screw on due to thread size or diameter, a reducer/enlarger fit piece could easily be created. This may be perfect since the OEM auto knob is generally longer and the reducer/enlarger will probably increase the length of the knob. Hmm.. I have a threaded S2000 knob in my tool box, i'll go check to see if it fits the RL tonight. If it doesnt, I'll take a few measurements and see how much it's off and how low it sits. |

I'm making a specific knob for the AT transmissions that will accommodate these requirements and will also be lighter than the MT ones to prevent accidental shifting while in SS mode. |
:w00t: just found out this will fit my CL :) m10 x 1.5 (stock honda thread) right?

I haven't forgotten about you guys... :D |
Dan, i will definitely buy one when you start selling them.
|
btw, how much horsepower does this mod add to the 6MT, 40 HP??? lmao
|
Are you going to make one for the 1999 CL? 1st Gen
|
Ugh... I can't decide! Blank (non-engraved) Dan Martin special or JDM Type-R knob:

I think someone said vaporware like 6 pages back or so....man, I'd really like to see these out.
|
How would i go about buying this knob when it is available??
|
I'm interested in this knob for my 04 TSX AT.
How much longer before it goes on sale? |
I really appreciate the interest and the patience you guys have shown. As some of you may know, I recently started a new job which is sending me to a remote part of Ontario until late November. It's going to be very tough for me to work on these shift knobs in the mean time so I'm going to do everything in my power to have them ready before the holiday season.
If anyone has any specific questions, feel free to PM me and I’ll be sure to respond when I get a chance to go online. Cheers, Dan :cheers: |
good luck with the new job Dan!
