supra steveo Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 any one anything else other than the oem gear knob ? if you are any pics ? I am looking for something small not like the Greddy ones as that would just totally defeat the point of having a short shifter cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geo Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I've got the facelift gear nob, and hate it. Prefer the old leather squareish one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I hate metal ones. Too cold in winter and too hot in summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellybean Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 (edited) I have the veilside version. Made my hand hurt on a frosty morning of stop start town traffic The Gear knob seems to have a Chrome coating; but the Top secret gear was a pity on cold/hot days Edited November 7, 2012 by Jellybean (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Whichever gear knob you chose make sure it's compatible with the lift up reversing collar on the 6spd gear stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 (edited) Need to be a member I like the pre facelift one, as it feels and looks good IMO. The one on the right: The R position is wrong for a Supra, and it would need lift reverse. However, these are custom made, so I could ask him about signing on here if there's any interest. They're hard anodised, which gives a smooth, almost soft feel. They're also weighted, which would help make the 6 speed shft a bit smoother.
