JDM Shifter Knob - L-Series Transmission

An authentic JDM shifter knob sourced from Japan, sized for the L-Series transmission in the Datsun S30Z. A period-correct upgrade that improves the feel of every shift while keeping the interior looking right.

Shifter knob fitment on the S30Z is straightforward for most models, but there's an important thread size distinction to be aware of before ordering — see the fitment notes below.

Features

Thread Fitment Guide

The 240Z and most 260Z/280Z models use a standard M8 x 1.25 thread (8mm diameter, 1.25mm pitch). However, some 280Z 5-speed transmissions use M10 x 1.25 threads instead. The pitch is consistent across all models, but the diameter may differ on certain 280Z manual gearboxes.

We strongly recommend measuring your shifter threads directly before ordering. If you're unsure, contact ZSM Custom with your chassis and transmission details and we'll help confirm the correct size.

Fitment

• Datsun 240Z — M8 x 1.25
• Datsun 260Z — M8 x 1.25
• Datsun 280Z (most models) — M8 x 1.25
• Datsun 280Z (some 5-speed models) — M10 x 1.25

Note: Measure your shifter thread diameter before purchasing. Please be aware that pricing and availabity may vary.
