zomg, my knob is going to get around!

countersunk knobs are awesome though, but i got bored of mine (which is why i swapped with nick for now).

i'm curious to see what a Ti countersunk feels like though. anyone got one i could test out?

ti countersunk would feel very light if u like countersunk but want something u need to push a little more then its perf. but if u like heavy knobs that make it easier to shift then i wouldnt recommend a ti knob unless its a big knob like voodoo makes

i do want to try j's racing blue ti one though almost bought it but too blue for me lol

Really like mine... short throws feel even shorter. Can get quite cold and hot depending on the weather though

I believe most Ti knobs are hollow... the voodoo is solid Ti, which is in fact heavier than aluminum but stronger, allowing it to be made thinner and thus lighter.

I don't experience this, I think it's more because of the Aluminum vs. Titanium rather than just a metal shift knob.

voodoo ti is the best of the countersunk knobs imo
the throw and feel makes an already great car even more fun to throw shifts in
going back to stock feels VERY weird, i'm never going back... even tho i could've sold the knob for $150.

I had won a Al rick's knob from Rick at a mod meet last year... but I lost it a few weeks later... I was looking forward to testing out the differences in hot/cold weather

I've had and still have a couple different countersunk shift knobs. I currently use a VooDoo textured black aluminum knob. I have another one exactly the same with the shift pattern engraved on it, too.
