A Skunk2 shift **** in 10x1.5 thread will fit a stock shifter. I love mine. It looks great and is heavy. To remove the stock ****, twist it counterclockwise.

I have a random ****, probably a S2 knockoff from eBay and I'm waiting for someone to try to steal my car so I can take one of their femurs and turn it into a shift ****.

No, most imports have the same thread pitch, but some cars have differnt ones. I tried to put a camaro **** on my nissan hard body I had and no go. I had a nissan sentra ser **** on my old hatch though. Just go to the junk yard and pull the stock **** off a car you thinkin about if its only made for that(j/y charge like $5 a **** at the most) and see if it fits. Skunk2's are nice and so are mugens. You just gotta twist it hard. Some times if its the stock **** and never been removed its a lil tough just build some muscle and twist. Ebay is the best place to get them though cheaper then most places. Skunk2 are weighed ***** and feel like butter when shifting get a skunk2 short shifter and you will notice shifting is like night and day.

You could also get a custom **** built just with the thread pitch noted above and it will be sick like this. Photo taken at a car show on a nice rat rod

Its definitely a good piece put it is pretty expensive for just a ****... But when I lived in MD it would be so cold that I couldn't put my hand on it... It was painfully cold... Now that I live in FL it gets painfully hot...

If mine was in good shape I would just put the stock Si **** on...
