Hybrid Racing Delrin Chicane Shift Knob

[brewsky02]

Has anyone put in the Delrin Chicane Shift Knob from Hybrid Racing? Im about to order a shifter and want a new knob when I replace it, so curious thoughts. Delrin seems nice when it comes to heat and cold.

I have it, and also their aluminum one. Both shift knob's bottom diameter is almost the same as the boot collar, so the fit looks really nice.

Delrin Chicane
Likes:
- Doesn't get too hot/cold
- Spherical
- Tall compared to stock

Dislike:
- Weight is a little too light
- Core/Screw part is Delrin/plastic so it doesn't feel as solid

I like the Aluminum a bit more. It feels more solid, height is slightly closer to the sweet spot imo, and it has slightly more weight. I personally like my shift knob closer to half a pound (~227g)
I might switch back to Delrin once it gets too cold, but for now I just have the shift knob hoodie that I pull over at the beginning of a drive when its cold/hot.
