Has anyone confirmed this?? does it work? hehe :ghey:

wootwoot · 09-01-2004, 02:23 PM

i have a drifting bag of poo for much cheaper than that. buy it, you'll drift sooo hard

Mr. Badlose · 09-01-2004, 02:23 PM

I've always wondered how a lot of people claim that a heavier shift knob helps against a gear popping out.

But I have heard these sweet Drift Spec Knobs help you drift 12.3% better, so they're probably worth buying.

Mr. Badlose · 09-01-2004, 02:35 PM

Ah! Found the dyno results!

s0ldats · 09-01-2004, 02:45 PM

Hahahaha Nice Dyno Graph

HyperTek · 09-01-2004, 02:52 PM

its not a bad looking shift knob, and the added wieght really makes shift knobs feel more solid... but did they really ahve to call it drift spec? I wonder if tire companys will make drift spec tires...

is Razo even popular in japan??

anthony240 · 09-01-2004, 07:39 PM

RAzO/Carmate...they have a GT300 car (S15) they're like the APC of Japan.

Anyway, if I were to recommend a great shift knob, TOMEI Duracon. Best shift knob EVAR! I don't even own one (yet) but from feeling on other people's cars, holy crap! like a glove

the240sxer95 · 09-01-2004, 08:03 PM

yeah i like the TOMEI Duracon, i wanna feel how the nismo rubber one is..

i got project MU right now, cause it matches my pedels (also MU)

andrave · 09-01-2004, 08:14 PM

I saw that jspec has ones that are the size of a coke can or something? wtf?

kidinthehall · 09-01-2004, 09:15 PM

that thing is ugly as fuck........but hey, if it helps you DrIfT!!!

nightwalker · 09-01-2004, 09:31 PM

...hahaha! fuck you guys! and fuck practicing! All I need is this shiftknob! Watch out D1! cause here I come!

***S14DB*** · 09-01-2004, 09:38 PM

How do you stick that thing up your butt? It's so wide.

Legacy · 09-01-2004, 10:13 PM

Here's my shiftknob:

it's on a stock shifter... super long throw, but awesome leverage. I really like it. =) The Pivot BigLo isn't that big btw... it's hollow also... I saw it in person at Jspec last week... kinda a cool knob though.

twong85 · 09-01-2004, 11:02 PM

Where'd you get that shift knob and how much was it???

Btw I've had the Tomei one for like a year it feels great.

sticky240 · 09-01-2004, 11:11 PM

that thing is ugly and I dont see how it woul dbe comfortable

I got me a Team VooDoo ball type knob, very nice and I've always liked the ball type knobs

Heres mine,Again sits kinda high with a long throw but with my recaro seats set up the way they are,the shift knob is perfect for spirited driving.No reacing for it or uncomfortable shifting.

What an ignorant statement.

HyperTek · 09-02-2004, 09:59 AM

I got Greddy/Grex heavy shift knob.. at first it felt like it was cutting up my hand from the edges, but i think it smoothed out over time.

nightwalker · 09-02-2004, 02:00 PM

My friend had one of those. He got it from his buddy in Japan. I thought it was the gayest/funkiest looking shift knob ever. .....so he sold it for 50 bucks!

50 bucks! can you believe someone paid 50 bucks for it? DAMN!

phrozen · 09-02-2004, 02:13 PM

Chernobyl · 09-02-2004, 04:21 PM

Well apperantly I'm not ghey, cause I think there ghey...Oh well if something off your grandmothers nick knack shelf is cool for a shift knob what ya gonna do.

hmm, the only ignorance I can tell is that you think I am hating on RAzO by stating they're like APC. I'm not one of the people out there that curse APC because of how they made success out of the whole euro/altezza light trend. I say Razo is like APC because for both of them, most of their business is based on cosmetic accessories.

You didn't say they were 'like APC' You said they were the 'APC of Japan', implying something other than commercial success through accessory sale.

old_s13 · 09-03-2004, 10:57 AM

you guys are the biggest bunch of faigs i have ever witnessed.

take your "drift-derived" shift knobs and drift them up your fucking culos.

then, while you're at it, you can put the pink fluffy sparkly ones in your mouth.

jesus.. whats wrong with everyone here.

derux · 09-03-2004, 12:17 PM

old_s13

Do you think you could put some LEDs in the shifter so i can see it good when im night drifting????
