New shift knob!

I got the Momo Airleather Subaru shift knob to replace my stock knob. I thought, "It will make the interior look better and it will feel better in my hand." Little did I know that it would actually make the car faster. The added mass of the Momo knob considerably reduces the notchy feeling of the short-shifter, thus making my shifts noticeably faster. And it also looks better (a lot) and feels better in my hand. Not the *best* $80 I ever spent, but definitely well worth it. Oh, and it says "MOMO Subaru" on the top instead of just "MOMO," so it looks factory. I would highly recommend this upgrade. If you don't care whether the knob has brushed aluminum on the bottom half, though, get the full-leather one. The aluminum is hella cold in the winter and will be hella hot in the summer. I liked the looks of it better, though, so I got it.

I got the STi short throw. The shifts are a good length and they're really solid, but they were notchy before. Now they're not.

Did the dealer have to order that in for ya, or did they have them in stock? Naturally, I know it will probably vary from dealer to dealer but I'm curious.

Got it from http://www.fastwrx.com/sushkn.html and it came via UPS in short order. They also have pictures, by the way, and they're the same as what it looks like in my car.
