Interesting, how come you guys have decided to change the knob? How do you find th changes were with the short shifter?
It started because my 2nd gear was notchy. I got a DC5R knob. Then I realised that it was caused by shifting habits by me pulling down and to the left when shifting from 1st to 2nd. So I fixed that. After that, I got the short shifter. Then I found out that a heavier knob was being released in the US, so I went for that and sold off the DC5R knob. Haven't found a better knob since.
So what knob do you have? Ive only really seen that countersunk one, is that yours? I dont really like the look of that, it looks like it has had a stunted growth. Can you recommend any that dont look so vertically challenged?
This is the one I have: http://www.mavenmotorsports.com/

that's my shift knob sparco globe, does not use the mugen shifter thread, it has an adaptor which gets plugged into it and then you screw the knob in.
Omgosh no, u dont have to try that - ill just trust its better with a new gear knob.. goodness u would have to change it all over!
Both are quite nice! Much better than that countersunk one. Daz, does yours look short? Aarons looks like it isnt short... But i cant tell with urs cos its jst th pic of the knob...
