I agree. I have the Nismo **** in black, and while it looks good, doesn't feel quite right. The car is not driven much, but I may just get a new ****, with more weight, when the weather warms up.

This is the **** I have in both my G and my S2000. Great product, well weighted, and I like its looks. I have the SS.

Any issues with it being super hot in the summer time?

I use a Seagrams 7 bag that I took off a nip bottle. Some people use a sock.

Same here, I used to have black nismo but I sold it for the same reason. The Z1 baller shift **** fills the void for me, even though I wish it is more heavier, the feel is just quite right and I am happy for now.

Exactly. Gonna put it up for sale today. It’s an awesome looking piece, but I need a shifter with more “feel,” and certainly more weight to it. Will check that Z1 also

Has anyone taken a weighted shift **** and had it covered in leather? I think that would solve the whole "it's too hot/too cold" thing as well as having a "quality" felling shift ****. Thoughts?

...and now, this is what I have. Feels great, it weighs about 420 grams, and matches the interior trim perfectly. The hot/cold wouldn’t be much of an issue, but it feels excellent!

i hate how manufactures put tiny little leather on automatic shifters. it looks so stupid. if theyre gonna do it put more or make the area bigger. i would prefer no leather at all

Thoughts on how this one would look with a black sedan interior? It's a stainless core with co-polymer top and bottom. 300 grams.

I think it will sit way too low.

I had that **** of my Legacy GT and loved it.
