Shiftknobs are a personal preference I would say. However, personally, I like spherical shift knobs and the T1R T182R is my favourite.

You can get this from us here:

A&J Racing :: Interior :: Shift Knobs :: T1R T182R Titanium Shift Knob (M10 x 1.5) - Universal

We also have various other types of knobs available, so feel free to let me know what you might be interested in.

Thanks.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Revo short shifter. I'm using a Spoon black duracon shift knob with this setup and I have no complaints so far.

The Spoon Duracon is also an excellent choice.

I really liked my J's Racing Ti and Mugen knobs. Buddy Club type A is a decent cheap setup.

I've always gone with Skunk2 or Blox. If you stick with your stock shifter then I'd just go with what feels good in your hand and looks good to you.

If you want to swap your shifter, I personally went with a T1R short shift and Blox 490 gram weighted knob. The feel of the T1R is great. But with any short shift, you're gonna want a weighted knob to add a smoother feel. I would highly recommend a short shift. You can get the Mugen shift assembly, but I'd say save yourself the money and get the T1R. It isn't very hard to install if you have an hour or so.

I have a Skunk2 knob that I took out of my eg civic, what a difference it made from stock. Shifting feels much smoother and easier.

I have a Buddy Club that I'm waiting to put in from Integra, the only thing is I need some Allen screws to hold to shifter.
