Hey,

I bought a nismo gearknob probably bout 8 months ago and its gone funny. The chrome has basically rubbed off leaving a brass kind of colour over it. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced a problem with them?

I bought it off ebay yeah but it came in a genuine nismo box so I think it is genuinely nismo...

I'll take pics later.

Cheers.

Your nobs worn.

Sorry.. Couldnt help myself

maybe you've been stroking it to much and its wearing out!

jk :P

I've noticed with the NISMO carbon fibre style ones they tend to fade and go a funny colour, I went with the black chrome which looks heaps better

:P

Stop play with your knob while driving...

Ok its been said.

I just got the stock gear knob and its still good.

mines all faded at the top, its gone a bit white lol....

happens over time, cause of sweat, and oil on your hand, and on a hot day dont even think about touching it.

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
