Anybody have this on their Rx-7 or something similar, preferably on an FC? I was curious about fitment and if would block any of the gauges.

 

 

have the personal neo grinta 330mm in an fd..

for rpm it blocks the top dashes but i can still see the #'s
speedo blocks after 60mph ish

best bet would be 350mm at smallest unless for track

 

Well this would be for an FC so the gauges are different. The Neo Eagle is a 340mm, I figure with the hub and possible quick release the gauges shouldn't be too blocked.

 

i lied i guess ived been sitting differently but it cuts off a SLIGHT amount but i can tell what rpms and mph im going.. i also have the nrg 2.5 quick release with nrg hub it that makes a difference to you...

 

Do you really need that clear a view of your gauges?

 

340mm should be fine, i have a 320mm on my FC and it blocks the gauges, but since then iv spaced the wheel further out and i can see my dash again even with the 320. Like previously stated your better with 350mm but 340mm should work just fine without visibility issues.

 

nope, its all user preference, and in my case i wish i bought a little bigger but im getting use to it and i can deal

 

Not really, but I'd like to. Just like muibubbles says it's all preference

 

On a FC, even if the gauges aren't functionally obscured (meaning there may be some blockage but you can still tell what's going on), chances are the turn signal indicators will be.
This may or may not be a concern to you.

Remember that the stock wheel is not only 350mm but it's also offset @12mm, which helps clear the upper part of the gauge pod.

 

is the stock wheel really 350mm? that **** was huge lol.... i use to drive an 8 and that steringwheel size was perfecttt

oh yeah, another good point you bring up, the blinkers... i cannot see mine at all its really annoying cuz i cant hear them blink nor see them so sometimes i forget to blink cuz i think i already did... or sometimes when you turn its still on... i cant see it to turn it off.. and thats my biggest pet peeve...

 

I'm not too worried about my blinkers, just like to see my gauges.

 

The US FD stock steering wheel is 380mm.
