Hi guys, just bought a 350gt coupe and was wondering what gear knobs are people running? I need a new one as the one i got with the car i bought the leather is worn out and torn. I was wondering do 350z or other types of skylines, do those gear knobs fit on out 6 spd manuals?

Thanks

I have a 2004 350GT 6MT and I purchased a 10mm thread nismo style knob only to find out that the OEM gear knob isnt threaded, the knob just sits down on it and with force I can just pull it up... So I either have to weld a thread shaft onto the OEM shifter (not likely) or buy a new shifter.... just make sure, because I havent seen many other people with this issue :S

WTF! Dude that is so random. Perhaps your shifter has been changed? I took mine off and it has thread on it. That is random luck dude!!

o wow thanks for letting me know. Its hard to find these gear knobs not many people are selling these sought of parts.

Your just looking specifically for OEM style? There would surely be some Z's wrecking, V35 wrecking etc. Google G35 Knobs? :-)

Looking towards the aftermarket gear knobs and looking at different styles, not really looking at the OEM. Yeah i took a look at the nismo ones but looking at them its about $280 + shipping to get them here. Plus someone was selling one on the zclub forums for $100 lol so just waiting it out, no biggie not really desperate. BTW does anyone know where i can get a tune in Melbourne?

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
