crazy that looks like engine wrinkle coat red!!

those things look nice!!!

Wow, these look great. I've been waiting forever for these. I literally just placed an order for one. Can't wait for it to get here :dance:

Just order mine today. Hopefully i get it soon :)

Damn jamie, these look great. Yoki, you'll get it quick!

Wow, I think I just shat myself. These look sooooo nice! The black with red gear pattern looks the best imo.

Now to convince the wife to buy me one of these :11:

Make one like TWM's M1 Abrams and i'll buy one :D

Thanks Guys!!

You definitely have a winner Jamie, I don't think your thread was 5 minutes old before I had already gotten my payment confirmation from paypal!

I think it would be safe to say you have the shift knob market cornered on here sir

Wow thats some fast shipping got it in the mail a few hours ago.

Half the price of twm... Check
Heavier than twm... Check
6-speed pattern... Check

Yeah, I don't see how it could get anymore appealing for the prospective buyer...

I placed my order late friday night. Jamie shipped it Saturday morning. I received the package Monday.....WOW! From Illinois to Utah in one business day. Rockin!

Holy shit these are sexy. Definitely considering asking the girlfriend for this for Christmas.

Nice knob! haha
Can I send u back the polished one I got with my ssp for trade...since mine was black when I got it and a week later all the "powdercoating" came off.
Just joking! Very nice work Jamie.

Any chance you have any of these in a brushed or polished metal finish?

I'm looking in to a very cool chrome powder coat, maybe stainless down the road.

Thanks,
Jamie

Ordered one today and looking forward to getting it. Murray Christmas tah me

Those look awesome! Any chance of a leather version down the road? Metal shift-knobs are a total bummer in the winter. lol I bet I'm the only person who wants one so the answer is probably "no".

I would be interested in one as well - I was looking to get my e4 knob machined and wrapped a la the s2000 leather wrapped knob. I'd still like to, I just don't want to pay a machine shop and an upholstery company to get it done.

If jamie offered a knob with a leather wrap on the middle, I would be all over that in a heartbeat.

are gloves still for pussies? I love wearing gloves during the winter when driving, guess I should get a kanga hat, ascot, and some goggles and make it for real

Yeah, but I'm mainly concerned with leaving the car in the sun - when I was in Miami over the summer, I had to grip the shifter by the boot to shift because the knob was hot enough to cook eggs. And gloves aren't exactly summer apparel.

I don't know if I'll ever do leather. I'm sure it would be a hit if I did. When things settle down a bit I'll see if I can't find out how to get them done.

Thanks,
Jamie

these look sick. im sure they would go nicely with the JBR SSP

Ya know....I bet they do.:scratchchin:

i dont think powder coat will get too hot actually

WOW, want one on those and will be ordering soon!

Damn those look good! At first I thought it was just a foam cushy wrap thing around the knob before I read it was wrinkle powder coat. I'm impressed!

Same here!

I concur! In flat black would be amazing!

Here are some pics of the new no pattern knobs. The red is red but looks a little orange due to my poor picture taking abilities.

+1 for the leather wrapped option.

I've had other metal replacement knobs over the years, smooth and wrinkle finish and they all were a pain when it was cold or hot.

nice knobs...payment sent for blk w/red pattern.

just ordered one of these (balck w/ red pattern) and the SSP...cant wait, I have yet to hear anything negative about jbarone products...DEF A WINNER!!!

Got the black with red shift pattern about three weeks ago. Outstanding product. The red pattern insert picks up the red stitching in the shifter boot nicely. I have some thin black leather and am toying with the idea of making a leather cylinder stitched in red to slip over the flat surface of the shifter for the winter. Just a thought. Keep up the good work Jamie.

Cool.

definitely going to pick one of these up after im done with my suspension!

Yes Yes YES! Previous owner of my second 2007 MS3 must have carried bolts in his hand while shifting. The stock knob is scratched pretty badly. Never scratched my first one...?

These look awesome. I can't wait to get one!

Can u believe how fast JBarone ships?
 

Check it out. The last two Jbarone items i bought, the engine dress kit and the shift wieght, arrived at my house in < than two days. As hard as we work for our $moneys$ nowadays, its nice to know that someone or a company cares about customer service. I ordered the Super -Heavy shift knob today at 2 pm: Its already in the mail....Good job Jbarone.:arms:

Also, threw some donation cheese to the forum considering how much $ i save here!

I appreciate that.

Thanks,
Jamie

knob looks sick!!

I agree with that opinion. However, i may now have acquired my 2nd FAiL.

Somehow my Mazdaspeed shifter -has no shift adaptor- I also didnt get a shift adaptor with my Jbarone Heavy shift knob purchase. Errrrrrr???? Did i miss something? :aargh4:

Email me a picture of the bottom of your shift knob to jamesbaroneracing@gmail.com

All knobs are shipped with the adapter. Are you sure you didn't just spin it on and run the adapter down in to the knob?

Thanks,
Jamie

Ordered mine last night, around idk 5 I was at the gym for maybe 30 minutes and got a email on my phone saying it shipped. Pretty excited for all the stuff to get here.

Yes i did check the install instructions- even before i received the knob- I will use the terminology described in the instructions to clarify my Question.

Is the shift Knob supposed to arrive with an aluminum shift adaptor-? I did receive the jam nut
(which is clearly shown in the 1st install picture), but not the aluminum shift adaptor.

Got mine install today. I always thought shift knobs were mainly for ricers that wanted to mach their bright orange shift knob with their bright orange interior. This things really got some function, as shifting now is so ridiculously effortless an infant could do it. Well made product, thanks!

I agree one hundred percent man, shifting this thing is effortless now and I definitely feel like my driving has improved.

ugh, I'd be all over this if I had a job

Just recieved the SS plate and weighted shift know combo. Blazing fast shipping and the shit looks great! Thanks JBR

Had my knob for a while now, thoroughly impressed with not only style, but also functionality. CANNOT beat the quality for the price anywhere.

Jamie,
just sent you the payment for the weight kit and the shift knob combo

Jamie,

How is the finish on these, as far as temperature wise, when it gets extremely hot or cold? I live in Las Vegas, so if I have to park in the sun on a 120 degree day (thankfully I usually don't) I dont want to have to put a sock on my shifter. The stock aluminum shift knob in my 06 evo was horrible for this. Also interested in purchasing the shift plate, shifter bushing, knob combo, so please let me know so I can get this ordered. Thanks.

I live in vegas as well, and I have one of JBR's shift knobs. I got the black with red pattern (as my post says) and the cold isn't really bothersome. The heat on the other hand can warm the knob up (since it is black...) There was a fairly hot day not too long ago (was it 2-3 days ago?) that it was close to 80 degrees. The knob was warm, but not scalding (it was sitting in the sun all day). Have yet to experience the 120 degree weather, and will post updates (or you can pm me) on when it gets hotter....that is if you can wait that long lol.

In 120 degree sun the knob is gonna get hot. Here in IL when it gets up around a 100 I use a sun shade in the car and the knob gets warm but not scalding.

PM's with combo details.

Thanks,
Jamie

anyone got pictures on the car? The pictures in the top post are gone for me.

Sorry about that. The pics in the OP have fixed and you can find install pics here:

Thanks,
Jamie

This is probably going to a stupid question, but I'm going to ask anyway because I'm interested in the knob. (There's almost nothing I won't do to improve shifting on this otherwise fun car.)

Weighing in at ~3x more, will the heavier knob place extra stress on the entire shifting assembly of the car? Surely, a few hundred grams doesn't sound like much, but if it's few hundred grams above the threshold of the stock assembly, I'd be concerned.

Thanks!

No extra stress just buttery shifting.

Thanks,
Jamie
