Question Steering hub adapters?

Okay so im 6'3''. Im looking into getting a steering wheel that has a smaller diameter than the stock steering wheels. To some it may not be a huge issue, but for me it is since my knees rub the steering wheel.

So, do steering boss kits that fit a 2nd gen rx7, fit a 1st gen?

Someone made a good point the other day. Smaller steering wheel with no power steering gonna be a good work out. Think about it. I have no idea about the fit tho.

Sent from my iPad using RX7Club. how bout that!

the FC is the odd one, the 1st gen Rx7 and miata are the same. the FC has a slightly different offset so the turn signals wont cancel
