Default Post up your shift *****!
Just in from Ken @ GarageStar...











The feel and craftsmanship is great and the car shifts a lot smoother because of the weight. Feels 10x better then stock!

"These shift ***** were inspired by the ones found on the race cars found in the JGTC. Machined from stainless steel, the simple lines and smooth finish make these shift ***** very comfortable to use. Weight is 399.7 grams."

Baller up in here:

ALEX EGGO full titanium shiftknob, designed by ALEX and made by T1R (Type One Racing). This **** is extremely light weight and durable. ALEX designed the **** in "EGG" shape to enhance excellent grabbing feel. It is also designed to be countersunk for 5~10mm depending on shifter. Limited quantities available.
This is an unbelievably light ****. it's thin-walled titanium. I can't think of anything to compare it to. it's probably close to the weight of my cat's stuffed toy mouse.

(not my car but same ****)

prices have gone up about 50% since I got mine!

i carried a big fat voodoo magnum and this eggo at the same time so I could switch them out and decide over time. eventually I forgot I had the voodoo because this one is so much win.

I have one of these but I didn't think it would be practical for the track.

I love my Garage Star as well. I would buy as second for my jetta if it wasn't indeed colder then all get out in the winter. Instead, I think I may be getting one of these for the Jetta:
