Favorite xB shift ****?

On my old miata, I had this shift **** that was my absolute favorite part of the car...

It was made by Sola Luna, and it was a weighted aluminum ball, powdercoated crinkle black...

It felt soooooo good...

Is there a shift **** for the xB that has transformed the car for you guys?

Thanks!

I have a Greddy counterweight **** in both of my cars. I also have a Blitz **** for the xB, but it doesn't have enough weight to it. No craptastic WeaponR or APC here... :D

The stock shift **** works pretty well, IMO.

any links/pics of the greddy counter weight or the gernade? I've searched and haven't found too much info...

I do like the idea of a weighted **** though...

I like my genuine pool ball "8" ball. I know what you mean about the 'feel' - shifting is way better w/ the 8 ball than it was w/ the stock.

Search on Ebay. Not found of the rounds ones... the other style is better.
