GR86 GR86 Gear Knob Thread

I've had a good poke about Parts.toyota.com and a few of the import sites and I can't find anything for it yet, just the auto gearbox.

I saw this on the ft86 subreddit earlier in the year. I am so tempted even if it’s just short term.

Still do like this one but can't find anywhere in the Uk selling them and they aren't on the accessories list yet. But then neither are the other GR bits too as I want the aero bit for the rear window. Worst case it's an order from Japan

 
Bump - did anyone figure out if the manual supra knob fits?
Had a good rummage - then did some research, fairly confident the manual supra knob will not fit, BMWs which share the same gearbox have to pull off their knob, not screw it off. Sounds painful.......

Saw this one installed in a youtube vid, I do like a solid metal ball (although not so much on hot days!)

or cold ones.
I do like something like that though.. looking for the right one myself.
 
Treating the car to a Likewise shifter, went for the black on black colourway and necessary collar adapter.

Excited for it to arrive from Australia 😁

I really fancy something like this:
RTR_White_Shift_Knob_Black_Engraving_4_5000x_6f050424-3d3b-41ce-a2c3-f3f8f2482cc8_810x.jpg

I suspect it probably would fit as the thread is the same on the Mustang and it does have a recess for the lockout but would likely need some locktite to stay in place.
Just what I am after.. do share if you find one :)
 
I'd be after something like this (pic: Lotus Emira). Any suggestions on where I could get one will be much appreciated.

Same as was on the Elise/V6 Exige, I was particularly disappointed with that when I drove the other day.

Does anyone feel the standard gear knob is rotated slightly to the passenger side? I am wondering if that was the design for RDH models and never got adjusted for us on the production line for the UK run. Or, more likely just old age?

The Ford performance knobs are really nicely made, I had a carbon one in the ST.

Will that make it shift like an ST box as well 🤔😉
Haha in all honesty I was never particularly wowed by the shift of the ST, new i30N is miles better than that and better than the pre facelift I had, they improved the shift for the facelift.

The ST was very chuckable though, cracking car on narrow country lanes.

And the GR86 gearbox , clutch combo is better than a Fiesta ST 🤷‍♂️
