im liking the black or white version with the jap writing on them

 

yep liking it in white with jap writng. good find m8.

 

been contemplating one for a few weeks now, my next mod for the impreza is a short shifter kit with uprated bushes so one of these would finish it off nicely.

 

i have an alloy momo one at the moment and its fine, the world hasnt ended or anything! a couple of gear changes and its as cosy as any other gearknob.

 

Hi Bud,

I have one of these, they are proper solid and are shipped from the states I think. Below is a pic of the one I bought and fitted to my 04 blob eye, super easy to fit and I think it really looks the part

 

that looks great, think i will add one to my xmas list

 

It is made from a solid billet I think so is quite heavy but is waaay better that the original one I had which was looking a bit tired. Think I am going to need some gloves in the winter though #Snowflake

 

lol yeah and welders gloves in the summer

did you find it easy to unscrew your old one? ive tried mine and it feels like im gonna shatter the gearstick itself-its stuck solid

 

No that was the hardest part because like you I was scared of breaking the shaft of the gearstick. After watching some youtube vids i finally plucked up the courage to just grip the stick with one hand and then proper twist the old one off, as soon as I broke the 14 years worth of crud seal it came off easily.

Tip for when installing the new one, do not tighten the new **** onto the threaded adaptor (supplied as part of the kit) until you have lined up the text to be fully in-line....I did this and the text was 90 degrees out...after lots of swearing I finally managed to separate the two parts to try again. If I read the instructions properly it does day to do this but I was being a typical bloke and thought I could do it without reading them haha

 

lol i dont do instructions either

thanks
