Default Heavy Shift Knob?

I'm having some troubles looking for the shift knob that is just Perfect. In my old z28 i had a que ball shifter, i loved it. It was heavy, made shifting very precise and i'm starting to miss that feel.

So far i've tried stock, a cheapo auto zone shifter, and an evo leather shift knob. So far none have got that feel i'm looking for.

If anyone knows where i can find a good quality, heavy ball/queball shift knob for the 3s i'd be greatly appreciated. The closest thing i've found is a machine shop that will make evo shift knobs out of steel, but they're priced out of the stratosphere!

Mitsubishi OEM Shift Knob 3000gt Eclipse Black Leather:eBay Motors (item 200399485007 end time Nov-27-09 08:14:49 PST)

I bought this one... fit perfectly and feels awesome. It is a lot heavier than stock (around 12 oz I believe). I love this shift knob, and have gotten a ton of compliments on it.

I have this picture... I could get a better close-up if you'd like.

I love this shift knob. It feels great in your hand, and it is quite heavy. The leather is also quality.

I have a RAZO 340gram...and a terrible camera...

Its just about a pound. Mirror black finish. I like it, it works well with the ohiospyderman STS. It cost about 50 bucks, looks nice in the 3000gt.
