Rob332 Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 So thought I would treat myself to a new knob, preferably a Nismo one. I have heard the Titanium ones are good, but tend to be pricey so I have been looking at the polished aluminium ones. Does anyone know where you can get hold of these in the UK ? Tried E bay but they all seem to be sellers from Japan and either the black or carbon fibre ones. Happy new Year ! Quote

-G- Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 The eBay ones from Japan will be genuine - anywhere else not costing £50+ will be a fake - not that it matters given it's function. I had to order a lot of my nismo extras from the states or Japan. If you don't mind fakes or cheaper imitations, take a look at AliExpress online. The worlds biggest emporium of counterfeit shite.

SHEZZA Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 All ways fancied the titanium one myself aswell ,but like you said a little dear. Wasn't that keen on the chrome as nothing else in the car is chrome or carbon so I went for the black one. Quote
-G- Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I had a good look at all the shift knobs prior to spending my cash - this particular one I plumped for, although I didn't get it from Torqen http://www.torqen.uk/350z/body-styling/gear-knobs/1922-350z-nismo-leather-shift-knob-32865-rn003.html Quote

Rob332 Posted February 19, 2016 Author Posted February 19, 2016 Does anyone know where you can get hold of those finishers ? Mine didn't come with one and I can't find anyone in the UK that sells them. Quote
