Just make her drive your car. My gf has never driven a manual until I forced her to drive my Mustang. I do not know why but she is just so scared of driving my car. She thinks she will ruin it... Even though I tell her that I do not care and I can replace a burned clutch...even though that will...
Well mine survived another Chicago winter, and it was a doozie! I do not know if mine are deluxe or not since I bought them so long ago, but they are holding up. I have no issues with mine either with adhesion or rigidity/durability.
The version I had caused the lockout collar to start rattling above 3.5k RPM as I remember. But seems like they may have fixed that as per BmacIL comment above.
laardilla Absolutely no problem in stop and go traffic. Shifting with the MGW is really easy. I would just get the standard so that you have only a 15% throw decrease, which means you do not lose as much leverage when shifting when compared to 20%, 25% etc. throw decrease. I go to downtown...

Yeah, I don't think that re-tightening the assembly will fix the issue. I wonder what type of thread does the nut have. Do new nuts come with with some type of chemical thread locker? I really wish that these nuts were cotter pinned to keep them in place.
The interesting thing is that when I...
Awesome suggestions! I actually have an idea to make my own too. I will see if one of the guys at my company's machine shop would cut what I have in mind.
I currently have an Atlas back from the group buy days. I liked it at the beginning, but eventually became a bit too heavy. I run an MGW now and my Atlas will not fit over it :( But I feel like if we could make that knob a bit smaller, we could save some weight and I think it would sit a bit...
So is there anyone making custom shift knobs that weigh around the 300 gram mark? Everything I find is either above 500 grams, or the lighter ones are non-metal. Is there really no market for knobs that are a under 500 grams?
