R31Nismoid Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 i thought cold is better than hot Get in a cold shower, and then a hot one. And ensure you look down. Then, tell us which "looks" better Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/171037-i-have-a-cold-knob/#findComment-3156200 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamezilla Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 You're forgetting the worst part - metal gear knobs in summer! I had a Nismo titanium one in the GT-R and remember getting into the car after it had been parked for a few hours in the sun. I touched the shifter and swear it nearly burned NISMO into my hand. I felt like this guy... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/171037-i-have-a-cold-knob/#findComment-3156429 Share on other sites More sharing options...

femno Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 LOL good point! No internal warmth? Whats the big deal it should warm up after a few mins of driving. Mine does (GREX alloy).

700HP-GTR33 Posted June 3, 2007 Author Share Posted June 3, 2007 Rekin....nice one...best answer so far' but useless as Kyle stated...but looked good to warm the real knob... Joshua...If I hardened the f#$k up anymore...I would be a 2 day old stiff.. Shaun...hair drier...how would I explain that to my friends when I have no hair James....do evos./hummers come with nismo c/f knobs... Steven...a few more days and I am fitting the original back on.. Paul...I would suggest we both melt them down and make a razo....battery operated shinny thing-ama-jig that looks like a bullet. Oh...Ash.....some don't have one...so it does not shrink...LOL Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/171037-i-have-a-cold-knob/#findComment-3158319 Share on other sites More sharing options...
