I have a hook-up with nrg, but never bothered to try and get a hub/wheel/release, because i really don't want a cholo style steering wheel set up to stick way out into my face when i'm driving..

also, the steering wheel angle points up, and the farther out it is, the higher it will be.. and i don't want to be able to hang dry my clothes from the steering wheel either..

i really don't wana drive around like this inside my car

i would just leave the stock one, if it hadn't got melted and de-laminated in the california sun.. everytime i drive i get out of my car with sticky-gluey hands, and figure if i'm going to replace it i might as well take advantage of my NRG hook-up

PICS would maybe help? thanks

 

Just get a short hub and a non deep dish wheel the 240's sick way up but with the right set up anything can be sick

 

You have a hookup with NRG, but don't know about their slim hubs and slim quick-disconnects? With those two, and a non-dished wheel, I bet you could get farther away than the stock wheel.

Personally, I prefer a touringcar-style closeness with my steering wheel.

 

Big pet peeve of mine, i had a momo competition in one fc and a stock fd momo in another which required none and i could never get used to the comp with the hub

Same thing with my jeep, hate the hub

 

You mean the "slim" hub that's 1.5 inches? Paired with a 2.5" adaptor? Sorry but 4 inches of hub doesn't seem "slim" to me..

@robxx7, do you know how it compared to stock in inches? I think i'd be fine with at MOST an inch farther out.. but would rather have none. I might just ditch the quick release ****, since it's hardly a anti-theft device these days anyways.

 

Beach- i dont have the car anymore, but others run the same wheel maybe they can help, there ws just a steering wheel thread that had a comp wheel in it

 

Boss hub. Nardi Gara. No trouble getting in or out, with a stock seat or bucket.

Sticks out maybe like four more inches from stock?

 

4" is A LOT when you are used to driving the car without it for so long

 

It took a little getting used to, but having a smaller diameter wheel now is soooo nice.

 

I appreciate the Hayne's manual in the passenger seat, those damn things should have been a factory bolt on. "OMFG WHERE DOES THIS VACUUM LINE GOOOOO"......ect

 

Hahaha this was a while ago, when I was installing it.

My buddy is currently borrowing it to figure out how to wire up a 13B into a 240z

 

Yeah 4" might be a littlle much.. I don't like my elbows to be too bent when I drive.

I have driven my homies s13 with a deep dish and like 5 inches of hub and it was okaaay, but he had his seat slid as far back as it could go, and I had to tippy toe the clutch, and I didn't like that very much

 

deep dish steering wheels FTW. but hey i am 6'2 the deep dish is great cause you can lean back like a gangster lol

 

Yes. the "slim" hub, which is FAR slimer than the momo hubs that are 4 inches tall.


Paired with the SLIM quick release, which is less than 2 inches tall


with a dishless wheel, or one with a small dish like a Momo MonteCarlo should put you close to stock.

This is measuring my stock S5 airbag wheel vs. the extra Momo I have.

 

i kinda like the look of a dishy wheel.. but i guess that plan is out the window..

i'll probably end up with a slightly concaved wheel with the slim hub, without the release..

 

The problem I have is that I have short legs. I sit too close to the wheel, but I can't push the clutch all the way down.

 

i don't have short legs, but i'd rather not be able to steer with my chin.. get me?
