The knob is the standard Race AirLeather, with a different insert. I prefer the Momo logo, as it matches the steering wheel.

You can get the trim (STi, not Impreza) from a variety of sources. Check Vivid's sight, or the classifieds.

The knob is actually the Race Airleather Aluminum "S" model. Notice that the base is thicker than the standard model. You can see it at [url]www.momo.it[/url]
SubEd 05-23-2002 09:12 PM

And that is why they call you "dead-eye"! :lol:

Wow, I've never seen that Impreza trim before.. I've seen the STi. Not sure which one I like better.
Brady 05-24-2002 02:55 AM

is the STI shifter trim engraved, or is it otherwise emblazoned. i guess the same question goes for the impreza shifter trim. kinda hard to tell for sure from pics. i think it might look cool to fill an "sti" in with cherry-blossom.
TaiChih 05-24-2002 10:09 AM

The IMPREZA is recessed or engraved if you will. And that looks to be from a JDM standard model, not STI:D
Rebellion 05-24-2002 10:15 AM

STI shifter plate... hmm I am diggin the plain ol' impreza plate tho..

TaiChih... can ya get some of these (the Impreza ones not the STi ones)

TaiChih 05-24-2002 10:16 AM

I can assure you that getting the generic from here, [url]http://www.spswebpage.com/products/momo_shifter.html[/url] , would be cheaper.
Rzk 05-24-2002 11:55 AM

So, where can you get that shift knob? Looks like a direct screw in. No little mounting screws to deal with. Sweet.
Rebellion 05-24-2002 12:22 PM

i doubt it's a direct screw in... but maybe.

TaiChih... any ideas if you can source that trim plate? I kinda like it better than the STi one.

It looks like a direct screw in. No bottom cap. No screws to hide, unless I am missing something here. Anyone familiar with this knob?
rupteur7000 05-24-2002 01:21 PM

all momo shift knobs are with set screws, on this model the set screws are hidden by the shift boot which is pulled up above those. easy and clean mod.
windfactory 05-24-2002 01:41 PM

this is what I have.
I also have extra 1 black leather and 2 alum in my hand.
who else want it?
windfactory 05-24-2002 01:44 PM

MOMO sphere black leather which is mine in using.
Rebellion 05-24-2002 03:18 PM

windfactory... I pm'd you a question... but I'll ask ya again in here...

do you have a bigger image of your sphere installed?

also... are you saying you have an extra sphere leather? interested in selling it?
IwantONE 05-24-2002 03:26 PM

I have only found one place that carries the momo shift boot to match the race air. Does anyone know of a place that i could find them both? I too would be interested in the Impreza thingie for around the shift area. Thanks

Bummer. :(
windfactory 05-24-2002 06:07 PM

yes, 1 extar NEW leather, and 2 Aluminum
 
here is the photo installed in my RS. leather selling @ $75+$7 shipping & handling.
Rebellion 05-24-2002 06:17 PM

hmmm ... thanks mucho for the pic windfactory.... I'm not really digging the sphere so much now though. :(

I dislike the chrome and the leather isn't perforated like the race air leather... just doesn't match the steering wheel like the other one.
windfactory 05-24-2002 06:17 PM

Aluminum look...
 
here >
MrWRX2 05-24-2002 09:34 PM

I'll take the aluminum better than the leather one....
tsbarro 05-24-2002 09:42 PM

Here you go
 
Both parts can be found at Fastwrx.com

Here's the link: [url]http://www.fastwrx.com/stialshiftri.html[/url]

Though, I think the aluminum trim is actually "STI" instead of impreza, but same idea.. The shift knob is on another menu on that site.

Brady 05-25-2002 01:40 AM

didn't someone rig up a threaded momo knob adapter about 2 months ago or so? i have no idea when or what thread, but it seems this was something someone accomplished to rid of the hassle of tightening screws. :confused:
dead-eye 05-28-2002 10:55 AM

Any more info on this knob? I checked with TaiChih and his vendor can't get it. I also checked e-bay but again nada.
Z1 Performance 05-28-2002 12:33 PM

Guys - just emailed Japan to get the scoop on both parts...give me a couple days to figure it out for you.

Good ole' Google told me to go [URL=http://www.autosportz.com/accessories_shiftknobs_momo.htm]here[/URL] and scroll down toward the bottom for the Race "S" Airleather Aluminum shift knob. I never ordered from that company so I don't know how they are.

What exactly is the differerence between the model "S" and the regular AirLeather Aluminum? Is it just the base? And what does that larger base do for you?

Thanks,
Todd
TaiChih 05-28-2002 03:34 PM

technically, the MOMO logo has the little subaru logo as well, but other than that, it's all the same.;)
TaiChih 05-30-2002 12:06 AM

AHA! found it
 
ok, found it finally. Unfortunately for most,if not all people the knob will cost $165 shipped.:(

Check out this thread:

This guy Deezel had the same thoughts as everybody else. He hated the design of the screws and wanted a true "screw in" solution, so he got a buddy to machine some special adapters for our shifters.

Unfortunately, he's sorta been MIA recently, and his buddy bailed on him, but go on and check out the thread -- maybe if their's enough interest, somebody will jump on it!
Z1 Performance 05-30-2002 12:18 PM

OK guys - we can easily get this shift knob for you..takes about 2 weeks.

Not sure if I am allowed to post prices here, but I will...moderators, if you are not cool with this, just tell me!

This is a screw on MOMO knob, no setscrews, and it is made specifically for the Subaru's, and will fit the WRX perfectly (not sure if it will fit older GC8 models though).

price is $140.00 including shipping, and takes us about 2 weeks to get once ordered.

imprezive one 05-30-2002 12:30 PM

Z1 performance, are you talking about the momo race "S" airleather knob? This knob is a direct screw on and fits perfectly? Does it also have a nub to hold the shift boot up like the stock shifter does? Please let me know, I've been looking for a shift knob for a while, this could be the one.
Z1 Performance 05-30-2002 12:38 PM

The knob I am talking about is the one shown in the first post in this thread
imprezive one 05-30-2002 01:03 PM

okay, so it is the "S." I just need to know if this knob has a nub to hold up the boot because that is my main concern. From the pic it appears that it does, but I need verification if anyone can provide it.
TaiChih 05-30-2002 04:18 PM

Damn, that's a great price.:D Make sure it has the little subaru logo too:lol:
MELBA 05-30-2002 05:31 PM

:D
Z1 Performance 05-30-2002 10:24 PM

TaiChih - yep, same knob as the one pictured.

where did that pic come from though....my supplier has no idea where to get that "Impreza" shifte trim from. I even have the factory Japan brochures for the '03 WRX and STi versions,a nd neither shos this as being an option..any ideas and i can source that part too

I thought I just read that somebody wants to charge $140 for a _shift_knob_... couldn't be...
SubEd 05-31-2002 08:23 AM

Go back to bed.




:devil:
Austin 05-31-2002 08:27 AM

Can I dream about $140 shift knobs?
SubEd 05-31-2002 08:35 AM

You may dream about the knob of your choice.

More Questions!
 
Z1 Performance,

Are you getting these as a custom purchase through Momo? If so, can you ask them if they can make (or maybe they already have but I haven't seen it) a matching "E" brake and boot for that too? The only one I saw is the "Pit Stop" model "e" brake, it looks nice but I'd rather have the metal-like finish to match the shift knob metal finish in the picture (first post).

Also, does the knob your selling for $140 come with the boot or will the factory boot suffice? I have the factory short throw...will it fit in that as easily as the standard shifter? Finally, how do I go about ordering? Paypal? Call for order?

- Logan

ps - If you could find out about the "e" brake & Impreza trim, please let me know. If I could get them all at once it should be cheaper on shipping prices hey? Thanks.

Can you get the " impreza" shifter trim and the " momo impreza S " knob? I'll take both if you can get it.
Mach5WRX 06-10-2002 01:55 PM

Bump:D
boxer02 06-10-2002 02:03 PM

yeah, i'm interested in the impreza trim as well. any info. from anybody would be helpful.
postr 06-13-2002 03:40 PM

Interested???
 
Z1 - I'm interested if the know will fit with a MOMO shift boot (that I currently have installed)...

Anyone interested in a 99.95% new (in the box with instructions/paperwork, never used, but screwed on the shifter one time) STi (piston type) shift knob?
