An minimal upgrade with immediate results
I’ll admit that I bought for looks, but the added weight made shifting feel 100x smoother. Bought it for my 2018 crosstrek.
The standard GrimmSpeed Shift Knob is one of the most popular in the Subaru aftermarket for a reason. They are the perfect mixture of refinement and functionality, featuring a hybrid design that is comfortable in both overhand and side grip driving styles. Weighing in at 675g, this knob will add an aggressive weighted feel to each gear shift, allowing you to shift faster and more smoothly than ever before. Your choice of a raw stainless finish ($59) or the ALL NEW neon green, red or black textured powder coat options ($69), each shift knob is also laser etched around the base with the GrimmSpeed logo so that you know it's the real deal.
*These are designed to fit the both 5 and 6 speed manual Subaru shifters right out of the box (M12x1.25), but if you'd like to hold the shift boot up on your 5 speed setup, you'll want to add our Shift Boot Retainer.

Love mine!
Awesome shift knob!! Makes shifts a lot smoother and accurate. I love the black with the gold logo on the bottom, great interior piece for my cabin.
This knob is so amazing! It is so much easier to shift than the OEM knob. I love the texture to it; this is a must have interior modification!
I love the way this looks in my car and even more so I love the way it feels in the hand while driving, shifting definitely feels more accurate with this weighted shift knob! Highly recommended!
It took me four months to pick a shift knob going to every vendor I could think of tell I finally pulled the trigger on this one..with that said I couldn't be happier with the pick the extra weight makes shifts blend seamlessly great product that I would rec to anyone looking for a shift know that doesn't disappoint
Love the way it feels. Make shifting feel smoother and just overall better. Great looks and finish, my only complaint is it gets abit chilly on the hand if you live in colder weather. Went with the taller knob in red. Very interested in trying the shorty knob later on.
Love the weight and feel of this shift knob. I didn't know how much I needed it until I finally bought it. It literally makes driving more fun.
Shift knob met all my needs: affordable, mat finish and abrasive texture, and heavily weighted. Complements my 04 sti drivetrain perfectly and assists in effortless shifting.
Fast delivery and simple install. I could instantly feel a difference in the shifts. Less chunky with a nice smooth/solid shift through the gears. Ordered the black one, looks great. Extremely happy with the purchase.
Love the texture of the painted red knob and love the feel it gives shifting with its weight.
This shift knob is the best one I ever gotten. when I first hold it I was really surprised by the weight, I didn't expected to be this heavy, I love it. When installed shifts became so smooth, almost effortless.
Good weight and almost effortless shifts. If you’re on the fence because you’re worried about the powder coating. Don’t be. I dropped mine onto concrete, minutes after getting it out of the box. I just had to brush concrete bits out the coating and it was flawless once again.
Nice grip and good weight to it. slick crisp shifts every time. Simply perfect.
Out of all the upgrades done on my car, this was the simplest and one of the best. Makes daily driving so much smoother, shifts are buttery and knob is the perfect weight. Ive had many other knobs and this is by far the best and what will stay in the car. Do yourself and tranny a favor, and get this knob
Feels great with a Cobb short shifter, shifts great with the extra weight on the stainless shift knob
I’ve always wanted this shift knob but it was silver, didn’t match the build. But since GRIMMSPEED dropped the powder coated versions I ordered the black textured powder coated. This shift knob is weighted the best on the market I combined this with a short throw shifter on my 2020 wrx best combo out there
Possibly one of the best knobs i have ever owned, great shift feel and the weight makes for flawless shifts.
This really does makes shifts feel so much smoother. The height feels slightly taller than stock, which is fine with me, and the shape is perfect. Great quality and very easy to install.
Coming from a 104g knob to this one, I couldn’t be happier. Shifts are much smoother and it looks and feels great.
Laughed as I practically dropped this hefty little package from the mailbox. It's got an excellent shape and allows for all sorts of interesting, great feeling holds.
I’ve had my fair share of Shift knobs. This is by far the best fit and feel of any Shift Knob I’ve used. I love the weight of it and the feel. I would definitely recommend!!
Was what it says it was. Heavy and a good size and shape for overhand or side grip shifting. Not so tall that it interfered with how I pull the reverse lockout. Whoever mentioned keeping the bag to put over it is very correct. It can soak up some heat in direct sunlight.
It’s a super comfortable shape, the weight makes shifting so much smoother and easier. The only problem is how hot it gets in the summer here, I’ve burnt my hand on it a few times. It’s a great shift knob! Just keep your bag to put over it if you live somewhere where it gets hot
This is hands down the nicest shift knob I've ever put in any of my cars. It feels super high quality holding it and it's nice and heavy making for butter smooth shifts. Not to mention the insane price. Do yourself a favor and scoop one up!
Nice, heavy shift knob. Way heavier than stock, great look and feel Install takes 2 minutes. Exactly what I was looking for.
This stainless steel shift knob completely changes the way shifting feels. It must weigh at least double what the OEM shift knob in the Subaru BRZ weighs, and that added heft makes a real difference in a shift gate that can be notchy at times. For even better performance I would suggest draining the transmission and rear differential, replacing the standard fluid with Gear 300 75w90 fully synthetic gear oil. Between these two easy fixes, the shifts feel like BUTTAH! Super smooth and no longer notchy or clunky.
Nice weight, car shifts smoother... Definitely worth the buy!
I'm glad I purchased this shif knob. I was already impressed when the mail man dropped it off, the box was impressively heavy. Installation took less than a minute including removing my old shift knob. Now my shifts are silky smooth and it feels like it's engaging the gears quicker than my old lightened shift knob.
Grimmspeed stainless steel shift knob install The shifter feel is an aspect of the WRX that I always felt could benefit from aftermarket help. It initially felt sloppy and didnt inspire confidence in shifts. Eventually I upgraded the shifter bushings and installed a Mode SS, but I still felt that it was notchy. I had always wanted a knob with more weight, but I really wasn't satisfied with the options out there. WOW. This knob is incredible! Great feel. Great weight. Fast shipment and best of all, shifting into gears feels smooth and effortless.
Looks fantastic in my 16 WRX. It matches the interior and it provides ease when shifting - I live in Chicago so I'm shifting a lot.
Can't beat the price plus quality. Weighted perfectly for my setup. Installation was about 37 seconds spin off spin on done. Knob is about 1/2in taller but not a big deal. Shifts are way smoother. I live in hawaii so knob doesnt get too hot nor freezes chee.
