Gear Knob Warmer

Hand made hat for your gear knob. Available in a range of colours to match your Mini. Pictured is my Electric Blue/EB one, along with a Chilli Red/White one. These are made to order just state in the notes box what colours you want. (p.s. please don't try driving with the warmer in place)

From a Mini Car website lol

i also have a razo gearing knob

it burns like a bitch in summer, cant stand it need a leather one when summer comes

but atm its only cold, all u have to do is rub it a bit(yes rub ur knob) and i dun really see it as a problem

razo gearing knobs are crap, wouldnt get another one even if it 'looks' good

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...

how is it going to warm your gear knob? what do they think, the knob has heat or it's own to keep in. some stupid knob design that it :)

hey tekin

i have the same knob i think. just a flush silver razo one

it gets pretty cold in winter, not much u can do. but summer is by far the worst. i struggle to change gears if its in the sun for a few hours

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

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
