i wouldnt mind that being engraved into the knob with nice detail

that M is hideous

please just do it blank

Opinions are like assholes. Just the same though, fuck you for being a cock about it.

I prefer a nice black and white leather version to match my interior, but I dont see that happening for me.

You'd have to have one custom made, but that would look clean with your interior.

Maybe hit up an upholstery shop or something? It's worth a shot.

Hey man, don't kill the messenger. Not my fault that you emblem looks like a pair of vampire fangs. I bet you're a twilight fan too.

that would be a cool option, im sure alot of people would get that. or we could even have a reg mazda symbol, a shift pattern and that ninja symbol. or "Shift me"

Whatever buddy. I'm sorry you don't like my emblem.

It's still a matter of opinion and nobody gives a fuck about yours. So, pretty please with sugar on top, shut the fuck up and get back to the topic at hand.

Thanks. I would be willing to pay big $ for it. Regular Mazda 6s actually came with this type of shifter, but its a 5 speed...Maybe I could get a plate made up....

This i'd like...
http://quirk-parts.com/ebay01/mazda2/gj6av817022.jpg

just get the 5speed knob. then screw with people. "dude my car is busted when i shift into reverse i go faster"

That looks nice!

It couldn't cost too much to have something like that sewn up.

LOL!! I shift into reverse and go faster! LOL!!

I'm going to do one knob for now. 6 speed pattern on top. Black (most likely).

Anyone that wants custom options, can take them to their local powdercoater.

I worked valet for 2 years...
depends on the Lot and such but ya generally i wouldnt trust a valet.
i usually watch them stall mine a few times then go in. i dont gove a flying fuck

btw SKEET... i have a beanie for my shift knob too. this chick made me one. haha ill have to find it and take some pics.

"shift me" is fucking hilarious. since everybody wants different shit engraved, or not at all, why not just blank and you can get it engraved locally?

I like the shift pattern idea. Plain and simple.

gunmetal or black with red engraving would be awesome...will the knob be direct fit or does it have to be adjustable by screws

just keep it cheap. weighted with no design or pattern. everyone wins.

I'm definitely interested in this. Screw paying for a shift knob that's 120+

i'd be in. blank would probably be better for most and it'll also allow you to sell it for other cars as well as the regular mz3.

lemmie know if anyone has a clean stock shifter they want to get rid of for cheap

shift me is awesome

that would make a good plate too!

ok. I am going to make a few up this week. I will also post a picture with a solution to keep it cool that will be included for free.

My center cap with the shift patteren keeps coming off, glued it back on twice now! Holding out and hoping this will be worth my wild.

PM me...I'd like to see if you're interested in putting a package together. My plate kits and your shift knobs.

Jamie

any updates?

in process good sir. I'm making them out of 303 stainless (heaviest metal that doesn't cost 2 arms and 3 legs) and machining time is slow on stock that hard. They're looking nice though.

The "burn preventer" is good and will be a super cheap and easy solution. (will be included for free)

any sneak peaks on the over all design, or will we have to wait for the final product?

Interested.

I'll stay tuned for pics. and weight.

Thanks

I would want the same thing.

I'd be very interested too. Simple, cheap, and no engraving would be my choice

I'm interested. Please don't make it look like any of the TWM knobs and make it so heavy that I have to use both hands. Kthx.

this sounds good to me, what will the price be?

alright, got the materials pricing and machine time done. It's looking like right around $80 including the "heat/cold protector."

Prototype was 635 grams. Going to keep it as close to prototype as possible.

Side note, it happens to fit the 350z, 370z, evo 8, evo 9, and a few other cars too :)

Can't wait to see it! That is nice and heavy.

bulk material on the way.

Copy the COBB knob but use Red instead of blue on the bottom. Ill buy

Please read the thread. That's not the plan and won't be happening.


Once the knobs are done and back here from black annodizing, then we will start offering them for sale. WE WILL NOT BE ACCEPTING PAYMENT UNTIL THEY ARE READY TO SHIP. NO PRE-ORDERS. Thanks


Scott

how much would it cost to get a plastic, leather wrapped knob, filled with lead!
lead is cheap right! :ban:

Can't wait to see it! Post some pics asap please even if they're non-annodized knobs. Thanks

in for picssssssss
