Momo usually come with adapters that make it fit. You should just look into voodoo shift *****. The voodoo ***** screw right on and look alot better too.

Most if not all Momo's ***** are universal. How it works is it usually has a fairly large hole that slide right on to the gear shaft. Then its secure by 2-3 small allan screws from the side on the lower part of the ****. And wat it does is usually demaging the screw threads on the gear shaft.

As you know our gear **** is screw right on to the gear shaft, so are most other Mazda's makes. And the voodoo's are so popular is because they are made to fit the Mazdas. Screw right on.

So if dont intend to use back the original ****, by all mean, you can try the Momos.

I have a wooden Momo **** in my Miata. I love the ****, but was horrible as/is, with its "universal" install method. There is a device called the tight fit adapter, for around $19 bucks. That makes this **** PERFECT! The adapter uses the same thread pitch as the RX-8 shifter, so it threads right on.

here is the **** I use

I put it on the RX-8 for a while to see if I liked it.
This particular **** needs a little more weight, to match the feel of the stock 8 ****.
You can add lead ballast under the top metal part to achieve this.

MOMO has the brand marketing, - "Hell, it's in a F1 Ferrari, I gotta get that"
It's all over racing marketing and even video games...

I am a fan of Voodoo's too / top quality, MOMO's selection is just overwhelming...

I don't understand the peach reference, please explain.

Is momo "peach" in another language?

Momo = "peach" in Japanese.

I think its a bit absurd to have the word "peach" plastered all over your car.

Voodoo is definitely the way to go. Just installed a Pearl Magnum on my 8 and it is awesome.
