Altima SE-R ***** = The best OEM ones IMO.

The ser **** is okay but I have to disagree (I hate the white numbers). The oem maxima **** is much classier and matches the interior console trim perfectly.

I do like the maxima 6spd shift **** but the fact that it weight next to nothing is a let-down for me. I have replaced it with a weighted one.

Well, that's true. The OEM **** has no heft to it at all.

I like the SER **** other than the fact that it looks kind of like a red and black golf ball, My 03 got an OEM and my 01 just got an OEM one too, It just looks right IMO

Calling attention to the shift **** on an automatic transmission...

The word "fail" seems almost inadequate.

Oh, and I think I rather like that CF ****. Pics in the car, please.

WOW THAT THING IS HIDEOUS!

My vote is for the G35 6speed ****, it's a little light but much better than the maxima's and better quality (doesn't wear out so fast). Not biased at all

I'm currently using the Nismo black aluminum shift **** on my Max. This photo obviously isn't mine, I just don't currently have one on hand. I personally love this ****. Aluminum ***** suck in the cold.. but once it warms up in the car it isn't that bad.

I have a Blox 490 spherical shift **** on my car. Direct screw on fitment. And for a weighted shift ****, it's great. At 490 grams, you can really throw the shifts. That's a little over 17 ounces, or more than a pound!

Here is what my Carbon fiber shift **** looks like.....




BTW.....you can't put those G35 shift ***** on the 5.5 Gen because of that pull up reverse crap! That is the reason I cant screw the shift **** all the way down to the bottom.

That's actually pretty cool, although there's quite a gap at the bottom. It looks a little higher than the OEM ****, is it? And is it heavier than OEM?

I have to leave the gap because if I dont and screw the shifter all the way down I cannot pull the ring up to put it in reverse and thats the only thing that sucks about it. When I screw it ALL the way down it feels really nice and short. But that is something that we all have to deal with because of that pull up ring to get it in reverse.....

If you look at my shift **** in the picture I posted, I do not have that issue. The shift **** is machined to where the reverse lock slides into the shift ****. The actual **** though is a ball.

It looks classier but it's made clearly inferior to the SE-R *****.

BTW that image is a SENTRA shift ****, not an Altima



That's what's in my car now.

It also comes w/ white/silver stiching

Yes it does, they're made of the same low quality imitation materials the maxima ***** are, you want to see what happens to them after a few years of use?

It's not even real leather nor are they weighted unlike the Altima SE-R ****.

Looks like the ones a guy was making on the sentra forums awhile back, he had round and tall ones.

WOW....you would think the luxurious INFINITI brand would come with higher quality materials since that is what they claim the INFINITIs are; LUXURY and SOPHISTICATION.....

Aackshun, my bad. That was the sentra **** I originally pictured. The Altima one is much better. I think the grey stitching matches our interiors better.
