Hey guys, I have a 2018 Si Coupe and this past summer I purchased a Raceseng slammer weighted shift knob that weighs 635g and have been running it since then. It has been great, but now I am looking into Acuity parts such as their short throw adapter, base bushings, shift rocker upgrade, and centering spring. The problem that I am running into is that I am worried these two sets of products counteract each other. My weighted knob is great but the whole point of a weighted knob is to get rid of feedback from the gearbox and all of the stiffness and notchiness. On the other hand, all of Acuity's products are focused on feeling all of the feedback from the gearbox and making your shifting experience as crisp as possible. Does all of this mean that if I run Acuity parts with my Raceseng knob, will it be a total waste of time and money because they will just go against each other to create a driving experience that is barely different from where I started?
The obvious answer to this is to get rid of my Raceseng knob and replace it with an Acuity knob that is not weighted (probably for this exact reason). However, I would really like to keep my Raceseng knob for multiple reasons including the price I paid for it, the fact that I love the way it looks, and that someone very close to bought it for me as a birthday present so it holds sentimental value to me.
Please share any experiences that you guys have had and if any of you are running a weighted knob with Acuity parts I would love to know how it feels for you!
