Construction & Design

The Billetworkz shift knob is crafted from premium 304 stainless steel, known for its excellent corrosion resistance and strength. Each knob is precision CNC machined to exacting tolerances, ensuring a perfect fit and smooth surface finish. After machining, the knob undergoes thorough cleaning and is powdercoated with a candy red finish that provides a glossy, eye-catching appearance while protecting against scratches and fading.

The weighted design adds mass to the shift knob, which helps to dampen vibrations and allows for smoother gear transitions. The laser engraving process used for shift patterns and logos guarantees permanent, high-contrast markings that won’t wear off over time. This particular model is supplied without engraving, offering a clean look or the option for custom personalization.

Installation & Fitment

This shift knob is engineered specifically for the 2013–2021 Subaru BRZ, Toyota FR-S, and Toyota 86 manual transmission models. Due to the oversized factory reverse lockout mechanism, only the Short Teardrop shape from Billetworkz will fit without additional parts. Other shapes require a Reverse Lockout Adaptor to ensure proper installation.

Installation is straightforward and requires no permanent modifications. Simply remove the factory shift knob and thread on the Billetworkz weighted shift knob. The heavy weight and precise threading provide a secure, rattle-free fit that enhances shifting feel immediately.
