Is the ITR shift boot made out of different/better material than the GS-R one?

Are the JDM ITR shift boots the same as the USDM one, just with red/yellow stitching?

 

No.

Yes. (for 00-01 ITRs)

 

Damn, no use gettin a JDM shift boot then for the damn stitching. I'll just get a new GS-R boot.

Also, do 00-01 ITR's have a nut on the bottom of the shiftknob that holds the boot up?

 

There is a nut but I think it's there to prevent the shift **** from unscrewing by itself from everyday use. The boot does not stay up right below the shift ****.

unless you have a 97-98 R where the shiftknob attaches to the boot

 

If you really want the stitching, go to Michael's or some fabric and linen store and get a red thread, they have a bunch of selection and stitch it on but I was too chicken so I took it to a seamstress, paid twenty dollars, looks like a JDM boot. Now, I am thinking of rethreading my leather wrap on the steering wheel with red thread. Do you guys think this will look good?

 

Isn't the question will you think it will look good?

Yeah I know, that should always be the question but I know too many people who get bashed for aluminum spoilers, decals, etc etc etc.....and yet, I am sure they did that because they think it looks good.
