FITS: All Hondas and Acuras utilizing the  M10x1.5 shifters

FEATURES:

  • Classic ESCO shape in 6AL4V Titanium and available in Burnt Titanium and Splatter Titanium finishes.
  • Laser-Etched, 6-Speed, Honda/Acura gear pattern in a beautiful gold color with the ACUiTY logo patterned around the base.
  • Approximately 310 grams with a 40mm diameter and 70mm height.
  • Titanium is 65% denser, has 95% lower thermal conductivity, and has 40% lower heat capacity when compared to aluminum, making Titanium knobs more forgiving in climates with harsh temperatures and providing a more weighted feel when compared to aluminum knobs.

Important note about ACUiTY's Splatter Titanium finish: Because the splatter finish on this product is applied by hand and in a random fashion, the size, location, and distribution of drip and splatter patterns will vary from part to part. The part you order will have blue, purple, and gold colors almost identical to the colors shown in these images, but the exact splatter pattern will naturally vary. Acuity does not permit returns on the basis of the splatter pattern not perfectly matching the product photos on our website.

A Knob with Pedigree

The ESCO-Ti is ACUiTY's popular ESCO shape reimagined in beautifully finished 6AL4V titanium. The ESCO-Ti is available in two unique finishes including a Burnt Titanium finish that fades from gold to purple to blue and a Splatter Titanium finish that features a burnt blue color with purple and gold splatter accents. ACUiTY's ESCO knob profile has become a favorite among seasoned drivers because of its comfortable shape. With a 40mm (1.57 in) barrel-shaped upper portion, gently domed top, tapered bottom, and 70mm (2.7 in) total height, the ESCO-Ti fits beautifully in most drivers' hands. By forcing a more consistent hand position through its unique shape, the ESCO-Ti helps to train muscle memory, making shifts more consistent.

The ESCO-Ti is a relatively heavy knob at 310 grams (10.9 oz), perfect for a great shift feel without masking feedback from the gearbox. Titanium is 65% denser, has 95% lower thermal conductivity, and has 40% lower heat capacity when compared to aluminum, making Titanium knobs more forgiving in climates with harsh temperatures and providing a more weighted feel when compared to aluminum knobs. To complement the ergonomic shape, each knob receives a hand-brushed and hand-colored finish using an anodizing process borrowed from the medical implant industry. As an added touch, the 6-Speed Honda/Acura gear pattern on top is laser-etched in a beautiful burnt gold color and small ACUiTY logos are etched around the base in a contrasting color. The finished appearance is breathtaking and unrivaled. For the best shifting experience, pair your ESCO-Ti knob with ACUiTY's other shifting upgrades for your car.

Each knob also includes a custom-made stainless steel flange nut that can be used to retain the shift knob. If you are using the OEM shift boot collar or one of ACUiTY's 1924 shift boot collars, you will not need to use this flange nut during installation.  Also included is a suede storage bag to protect your shift knob when it's not installed. 

Care Instructions

Oil and dirt that accumulate on the outside of this product will temporarily reduce the vibrance of the colors in its burnt finish. If you find your titanium looking a little lack-luster, use a microfiber cloth and some houshold rubbing alcohol to wipe the outer surfaces down. This will remove oil and dirt deposited on the outer surfaces and will restore the original beauty of the finish. Avoid use when your hands are excessively rough or when you have abrasive materials on them (like sand, dirt, etc.) as this can prematurely wear down the burnt finish. Avoid use with rings or similar jewelry as it may scratch the finish. If the finish is ever damaged, ACUiTY may be able to refinish the knob at a much lower cost than replacing it; contact us for details.

FITMENT

Will thread onto all M10x1.5 shifters (All Hondas and Acuras with Manual transmissions have an M10x1.5 shifter thread.)

Important Note About Shift Boot Fitment:

On many Hondas and Acuras made after 2010, the shift boot clips to the underside of the shift knob. Older vehicles had a shift boot that just sat near the underside of the knob, but did not mate to it. If your shift boot clips to the underside of your shift knob, you should check to see if it clips to a nut or to the knob itself. If the boot clips to a nut, your boot and nut should work with your new Esco knob as well. If the boot clips to the actual OEM shift knob, however, you will need additional parts to prevent the boot from sagging after installation. We currently offer five shift boot collars that can correct this issue. The part #'s are 1924-K1 (satin black anodized finish), 1924-K2 (turned stainless steel finish), 1924-K4 (satin red anodized finish), 1924-K5 (burnt titanium finish), and 1924-K6 (satin purple anodized finish).

Similarly, if you have an older vehicle that doesn't have a shift boot that clips to the knob, you can also use the same shift boot collars (1924-K1, 1924-K2, 1924-K4, 1924-K5, and 1924-K6) to clip the boot to the knob for a more modern, clean, finished appearance.
