Lucky-R

found an old stack of magazines the other day and found an old Acura ad showing optional "ITR" equipment like the floormats, bra etc, and there was a carbon fiber shiftknob among the accessories. i thought i had a mental catalogue of anything and everything itr but i guess i never noticed that shiftknob before... since ive never seen it in person either.

if anyone ever rocked it, post some pics. it looks like your typical cf **** finished with shiny resin, but the "A" in red stamped on it.

Strangely, that part is still available. With my luck, as soon as I say that, everyone will order it and it'll be discontinued. LOL

/edit: nope. discontinued. *sigh*

You fail... they were made for Acura by MOMO.
And I lubbed mine, cool to the touch in summer, warm in the winter, fit the hand perfectly.
Not like this round aluminum "Blazing Shiftknob 0' Doom" that came on the EVO.

I don't think Dali has any OEMs in stock but they do have these.

i thought it was a cheap knock off but now you guys tell me that they really did make them. o well to late now.

A white one would look sick in a 97 or 98 R

Lucky-R

well if nobody else has a pic of this ad, then maybe i can scan it...its cool to see an old school ad of the car 8 years after. its a yellow R decked out with the front bra and the floormats, cargo mat and mentioned shiftknob below. also has the "integra type R" logo behind with the "R" in red
