beer shift knob...
 
okay im seriously thinking about picking up a beer tap as soon as the seller contacts me, i know it wont fit. i know i need a drill bit and tap, so my questions is what size dril bit and tap do i need to make it flush with my stock shifter? or should i just take off my stock knob and see? that was my first idea but i had the internet so why not ask you guys? :D

If its more than three inches tall i would not do it. Beer tap shifters belong in pickups. Sorry I so not know the thread pitch/dia.

really is it your personal preference or is it physically unusable? cause to be honest ive always been a fan of the dildo shift knobs lol
and ive been looking ive seen that the thread size is 10 X 1.25 can anybody confirm that?

SCORE! ill be picking it up this weekend, maybe start a DIY thread for it? thanks JNCoRacer

More than about three inches tall and your hand would be higher than your elbow. That would be uncomfortable and may affect shifitng.

I need to sell my car so I don't have to read these forums and see the result of the ever aging 4th gen.

aackshun 04-03-2013 05:18 PM

IMO it's not anymore foolish then decorating your car with a bunch of CF parts that are just for bling bling.....

I've seen that way too many times. I think it's eh at best, and I love crown

Maxidave? 04-04-2013 05:02 AM

not a fan of the crown royal shift boot, i like simple leather or the bandana. as for shift knob ive always been a fan of the dildo shift knobs so this is kind of a different way of doing it and its really not going to cost me anything until i get one. http://i00.i.aliimg.com/wsphoto/v0/6...pg_200x200.jpg this is an example :)

Those things break under normal use. A few rough shifts and you will have to replace it. As long as its cheap to put in then I say go for it if you like it.

CallMeThatOneGuy 04-06-2013 08:20 AM

Personally I wouldn't do it, but what do i know... I'm an automatic :wall:

AznRyan 04-06-2013 08:29 AM

A sports bar that used to be next to my workplace was changing out all their taps, and while I was out back on a "smoke break" :nervous: I liberated some, including a Dos Equis beer tap, thinking along the same lines.

It's probably lost in the garage, or somewhere up in the attic

The Wizard 04-12-2013 11:33 PM

Another example of FAIL. LOL

Taste, cool points, "looking nice" are all relative to one person's P.O.V. Great job for capturing the small narrow minded audience that is "Maxima.org" but really, outside of this small little realm can you really expect what you have done CF wise to your car be less rice-tastic than the shifter mod we're discussing? In an objective sense, no. Not one bit. Unless you can prove otherwise, which I'm open to hearing, I'm open for more functional mods to be done, so I'm willing to learn.

Cause where it stands, it's just a bunch of Christmas tree like decorations (There is deeper meaning to that statement then just the obvious, take away the decor and what do you have? Just a pine tree) just to separate yourself from ordinary everyday Maxima eg. Max Ride 41 who's work will go 100% un-noticed by any non-org member or someone who doesn't do detail work for a living.

is this why cars like pagani make their entire car out of CF? to appeal to maxima.org and be rice-rastic?

also to address your other point, i agree that max ride 41s ride is clean and ive already appreciated it before. but i would say the wizard and his rides are on different levels completely.
