NSX Type S Weighted Shift Knob
Titanium Billet Construction / 280g Weighted Mass
Abstract
After experiencing the precision of the 2002 NSX Type S, we were thoroughly impressed by the tactile feedback of its shift knob. With the OEM component no longer available, we have meticulously engineered a high-fidelity alternative. This component mirrors the exceptional quality of the original while integrating modern manufacturing precision.
Solid Billet Titanium
Weight: 280g
Countersunk Depth: 12mm
Engineering Profile
Machined Billet Titanium
Crafted from titanium renowned for its strength-to-weight ratio. The process begins with machining a solid billet to exact specifications. Features a countersunk design with a depth of 12mm, allowing for a sleek, flush fit with the shift lever to improve ergonomics and aesthetics.
- • Solid Titanium Billet
- • 12mm Countersunk Bore
- • Flush Lever Integration
Inertial Mass Advantage
Weighing in at 280g, this knob offers significant improvements in shifting kinetics. The added mass creates positive inertia for smoother gear engagement, enhancing overall driver control. It is designed as a versatile upgrade for both the NSX and S2000 platforms.
- • 280g Static Weight
- • Enhanced Gear Engagement
- • Reduced Shift Effort
Chassis Integration
Specific fitment notes regarding throw distance and lever height for compatible Honda platforms.
NSX Installation
Compatible with both the factory and extended straight thread gear selectors. The extended selector allows the knob to sit lower, reducing throw distance—ideal for the NSX’s cable-driven transmission architecture.
S2000 Installation
Designed to sit 12mm higher than the standard knob and 25mm higher than the CR ball knob. This elevated position provides improved leverage and a more precise, mechanical shifting feel specific to the S2000 linkage.
This shift knob replicates the factory 2002 Type-S model geometry. It is not designed for use with the “clip-in” feature found on 1991-2001 NSX shift boots. For optimal fit and finish, we recommend pairing this component with NSX-R, Type-S, or factory 2002-2005 shift boots.
