Very nice! I wanna do a NRG slim quick release with my Grant GT wheel, not sure if I can? How hard is it to add it on? Do you need anything special?

well it was not super easy...there was some tweaking to make it all work. But you should double check on the NRG site, I am pretty sure it will work. It should be universal. the NRG piece goes after your hub, between the hub and wheel. So your grant will bolt into the inside NRG piece.

if you currently have the grant already installed, I dont think you need anything else...just the NRG piece. But be ready for the little things..like making sure the horn works etc...we had to rewire a ground to make mine work.

looks nice. I have the same **** but in blue. with a boot too. Im just not sure how Im going to get the boot to work exactly, but ill get it figure that out. Ill be tackling the wheel soon to. I was looking at the hub on ebay, and it looks to me like it should be able to bolt up to the shaft without much trouble.

thanks all...its weird...you get a pretty good sense of security knowing if any knuckleheads are cruising around looking for mazdas they will move on...unless they have a tow truck. I like that....

to fit an 5 bolt steering wheel onto a 6 bolt hub, you will need an adapter. i am going through this but havent finished the set up. kinda feeling lazy and cold. anyways i got a 5 to 6 converter plate thingamabob. grant makes it, part number 4008. it cost if 30 bucks, but at summitracing.com its 16 bucks.

as for quick releases i found that the cheap ebay ones work just as well.

yeah as others have notes it is not too bad. This wheel is not that much smaller. It does not cut it off too bad, I can still see them very clearly.
