Default new steering wheel

finally got a new steering wheel. I had it for awhile but it was raining over here for alot of days but my friend lent me his garage and installed new steering wheel.






Well now I have my other steering wheel in good condition so I might be selling that soon. I'm not sure if anyone really wants it. Ill be looking around to see if anyone sold theres and how much. Ill post up pics of it and a price soon.

yes I did but one wire was hangin out and when i pressed the horn it wouldnt stop. LOL so i had to disconnect it, im going to fix it later cause i dont feel like taking out the whole steering wheel for that one wire but it does work.

Im still shopping for my hub. The best price so far is from more-japan. Their regular boss is $75 shipped.

I was thinking about getting their short one and use a NRG quick release ($90 shipped on ebay), but its $152 after shipping. I just cant justify spending $142 on mounting my wheel. Maybe Im just cheap.

I use to have a nardi setup on my 240 and i never had problems. Yes it is a cheaper and i was going to do that before but i decided, hey i have a lexus no cheapo stuff anymore, i gotta do things right. But hey thats just me. Getting the short hub made a hell lot of a difference. It looks better and i can still reach the turn signal no problem. Well thats because i have the quick release. if you dont get one with a regular hub you should be fine. Also the hub you get will depend on if your horn will work.

Nice setup, looks great with a chrome center. I guess there are a few of us now with the same set-up .

should have got the slim hub.. i hate when the steering wheel is really close to me or it could be just me... i see a few of you arent to sure wat to get.. i'll include my 2 cents nrg has one of the best quick reales out has no play in it wat so ever and it's pretty cheap i've delt with momo releases and hubsbut the quality is just cheap at least i think so


setup looks good tho love the nardi wheel
