AND its in!
 

I ordered a custom shift knob from knobmeister just as recommended by many on the forums and it finally came in!

Heres some pics, one of the stock and the rest is new

fyi: $53 shipped...so worth it!!!!

How come your reverse is up ? Mine is where the 6th gear is

Good question...mine came that way, my car that is

your car has Reverse up where 1st is?!
that's never been the case with OEM transmissions sold in the US...

i cant believe the first response in this thread wasnt "that's what she said"

nice knob

what the hell ... even the JDM one I've seen here has the reverse where the 6th gear is, mine is the USDM CA version ...

You must have the only 8 in the world with a reverse that is opposite then rest of us. SOmething is off here!

how many miles did the car have when you bought it?



(anyone else see where I'm going with this) :suspect:

I bought it brand new had all the plastic covering on the wheels and interior on the seats and it was sitting in the middle of the enclosed lot at the dealership

i just noticed in your (hard to read due to the sunlight) pic of the OEM shift knob that it appears Reverse is in the same location as your new shift knob.

:scratchhe

lol yeaI wouldn't have bought a shift knob with a different pattern than my OEM knob

thanks bro for the compliment and for being the only person who wasn't bugging out about the reverse so far lol

The R3 in our local 8club's trans is like that. So was the brand new R3 I test drove last week, I didn't notice until I had to reverse and was like wtf? so yeah....it's normal.
The knob looks great!

Thanks for the compliment and the info!

Thanks for the clear up ... damn .... lol .. got me thinking you had some super secret transmission only sold to a selected few ... lmfao ... Nice knob though .. I want to get the pearl finish one

lmfaoooo I knoo me too....I thought I was special :crying:

thanks btw

I have a 2010 GT and my reverse is also up by 1st. Sweet knob by the way! I just ordered a Mazdaspeed CF and now that I saw yours and now I'm thinking twice about my purchase.LOL I just love how they have RX8 engraved in there as well!

Nice. I love my Voo Doo. :lol: at the noobs who didn't know about the S2 tranny :lol:

hahaha yeaa I know and thanks bro the difference is like night and day!


haha thanks bro this knob that they have online is only advertised with the shift pattern engraved but I saw a shift knob in their gallery done for a RX-7 with the logo on top of the shift pattern so I asked Joe if he could do the same and BAM one sexy shift knob later! lol

Wow i LIKE. How much? :)

Search Noob!!

perma ban

gosh, you guys do know S2 has the reverse next to 1st right? or you just trolling?

Wow. Love it. LOVE IT.

My spun aluminum Voodoo knob is getting a bit nicked up. Might be time to replace it. When I got it my daughter said "but daddy, how do you know how to shift?!??" :rollingla
