What do you guys think of this? It fits with our reverse lock thing. Anyone have this with a picture?

 

those are pretty cool! the FR-S shift **** fits our tC2 also?

 

That's what the website says. Any car with 12x1.25 and reverse lock can use this.

 

i was looking at the PW/JDM brass ****, but now there's another **** to consider.. damn frs style ***** are sweet. my all time favorite **** is the honda type r ****..., but have had no luck finding one that fits our reverse lock out.....

 

Me too! I don't know what to get lol. I have the 490 sphere one from blox and I like that its heavy. Both pwjdm and frs style shift know are both around 140 grams. I'm use to the heaviness lol

 

o snap! now my search has expanded lol i do like that FR-S **** but ima look up more FR-S ***** to see whats up =) thanx!

 

Bump.. Anyone try these yet?

 

I actually contacted blox awhile back to figure out the diameter of the opening of the bottom of the **** and it will not fit our reverse lock.

 

well i know this might sound like a dumb question but how do you take off/install our shift **** then?

 

Don't worry there is no such thing as a dumb question, only inquisitive idiots. Just kidding!
Rotate the **** in a counter-clockwise direction until is comes off. Simple enough.
Something else to think about is that an aftermarket reverse lockout might be slightly less diameter (TWM shifter) and thus might fit a reverse lock compatible **** that is too small for the stock tC shifter.... like the blox. If I think of it, I'll measure the top of my TWM and the stock shifter to see if there's any difference.

 

Or go to LatheWerks and he can make any of of the ***** on his website fit our car. Just email home and tell him what you want.

 

Does anyone know if this will fit out reverse lock out??? http://lathewerks.com/shop/product_i...&products_id=7

EDIT: Never mind, Im an idiot and didnt read the post above mine.. :s

 

Blktc2: lol! that made me crack up...but thank you i appreciate it! i figured it would come off like that but what is the reverse lock then and how does that work?

i was planning to buy a new Flossy shift **** but i need to know what size and if i need a "reverse lock" or what do i need??

 

k0ntr0lledka0s: The reverse lock is part of the shifter assembly. It's just a piece that fits around the shifter and is kept down with a spring. You don't need to remove or replace it to change the kn0b.
I did measure last night and there is a small difference between the top of the TWM RL and the stock RL that slides up and into the kn0b. Don't quote me on this because I used a cheap gauge, but the TWM is about 31/32nd of an inch wide and the stock is just under 1 and 1/8th inch wide. From the pictures I've seen, the FR-S/BRZ's RL looks a little thinner, but no way to tell without measuring.
So to recap, if you upgrade to a TWM shifter, any kn0b that has the correct thread pattern (12x1.25) and has at least a 1" opening on the bottom should work. If you keep the stock shifter you'll need a kn0b that's at least 1 & 1/8th" wide on the bottom.
Or you can go the custom route like no skatehate said and get one from LatheWerks.
Honestly, I'm very satisfied with the TWM shifter and M1 kn0b. I know their stuff is pricey as heck but it's also made really well and they provide good instructions. Big bonus: I didn't have to research all day to see if it was going to fit!

Edit: I just looked at the flossy site, specifically the Grip Tape Shorty (BLK), and here's what they say, "THIS 6-SPEED CAPABLE **** has the reverse lockout needed for most 6-speed vehicles".
Meaning that it has a gap big enough on the bottom to accommodate most RL shifters. If I were you, I'd still email them to see if it works with the tC2 since Scion is not listed as a choice on their page. And if they're not sure, you at least have the specs to send them now so they can check. ;)

 

o wow thanks alot bro i really appreciate it! ima email them and see what they say, but thanx for helping me out with this...im thinking of getting the SNOWBALL one but it doesnt say aything about reverse lock so ima see what they say

 

Twm makes a type r and a big type r. I have the big type r it's like 600 grams or something like that. I absolutely love it.
It's expensive, but worth it
