WHY??
Well, to put it as simply as we can, the heavier the knob, the easier it will make shifting feel. Its not magic, its physics. Weight in motion directly relates to how an object will react to an opposing force. In this case, the opposing force is the gate pattern and counter springs that are connected to your shift arm that tell you the shift pattern of your car. The difference felt when shifting into the next gear requires far less effort due to the additional momentum created by the increased mass.
COMFORT
Whether side-arm or palm shifting from the top, Ashiko's shape is purposefully designed to make both shifting styles more enjoyable. The side surface is designed to fit the natural curvature of your hand and fingers as they wrap around the shift knob as you dictate direction and movement. The domed top surface is intended to compliment palm shifting, giving you an ideal surface area for confident shifting.
Its not just a cylindrical shift knob. Anthropometrics, or the study of human body measurement, directly shaped the design of Ashiko. There isn't a single straight line in your body, so why should your shift knob?
THREADED ADAPTER
The Ashiko shift knob will come with a billet aluminum threaded adapter with a M12 x 1.25 thread to fit the shift knob to your FR-S/BRZ/WRX/STI shifter arm.
HOLLOW SET SCREW
A hollow set screw is also included. The set screw allows you to easily adjust the orientation of the 6 speed pattern and the height of the shift knob. Instructions are included to help you thru this process.

Elevated look and feel!
Love the way this looks in my BRZ. The extra weight improves the feel of the shifter so much, and is a huge aesthetic upgrade. High-end look and no plastic or leather to scratch or wear out, like on the stock knob.

Beautiful
From the packaging to the finished product, it's clear that they took great pride in this shift knob. Looks absolutely beautiful. The heavy weight makes shifting feel 'smoother', if that makes sense. One word of warning though, this thing gets HOT if you are parked in the sun. Would definitely recommend.
