Help me pick out a new steering wheel!

[Dano]

Post up pics and links to steering wheels you really like, i'm starting to work on fixing the 240 again and two things were damaged on the interior, the steering wheel, and the clutch pedal bracket. I got a NISMO clutch pedal bracket to put in but always loved my steering wheel, and never looked at others.

Criteria:

Not plastic or vinyl, needs to be leather or suede.

Not OEM, i'm replacing an old Personal steering wheel that I LOVED, but was reverse-dished after my wreck back in '07.

Not Nardi Deep Corn, lol. They're nice, but I like the contoured grips/thumb rests.

As black as possible, I dont like the bright red/yellow stitch very much, my old Personal had blue stitching, which meshed with the rest of my car well. But i'm fairly lenient on this

Post up!

Here's an old pic of my old wheel that I loved:

[Beancooker]

NRG. Not too expensive, and I really like this one. Had it in my Maxima.

I Have Grant Formula GT (Model 773) 13" Diameter.

Your Personal Seems To Be Bit Larger 350mm?

Well They Make A Model 774 Which Has A 14" Diameter, 3-1/2" Dish

Only thing I noticed is that it's a 5 bolt, not 6.

FABULOUS steering wheel

[Dano]

Looks neat but it's not in english, and not a stateside retailer.

[MellowZ32]

ask yokota180sx, TMS or Gold Digger to help you out.

[Dano]

Yeah, if I decide to go that route I definately will, but im still seeing what's out there, I know there's a lot more.

[r34 gtr]

Gotta say, I'm a little disappointed that my offer was not considered.

[Razi]

How about this Sparco Targa steering wheel?http://www.frsport.com/Sparco-....html

There are other nice steering wheels at FRsport, you should take a look.http://www.frsport.com/Steering-Wheel_c_140.html

Glad to hear that your 240 is getting worked on again!

[Dano]

Gotta say, I'm a little disappointed that my offer was not considered.

LOL, criteria said leather or suede

[r34 gtr]

Pfff you should know I never read before I post.

That being said I have a 13" MOMO Corse wheel and I love it to death. I HIGHLY recommend one.

Edit: it looks identical to your old Personal. IDENTICAL.

Looks (from the MOMO web site) that you want to buy you a MOMO Monte Carlo steering wheel.



They come in 320 or 350mm, and are just like the one you lost.

Edit: AmericanMuscle.com has it on sale for $165, and it comes with free shipping.

hmmm, I do like that!

[r34 gtr]

The leather will wear smooth in no time. Mine did!

The little indentations below the horizontal bits make it so your hands stay in place very well. You would know this though, as your last one had them too!

Edit: here are some more:

The same wheel as above, but in 330mm and suede(guy has the wheel in various sizes for sale)!

Any of these would work too:http://www.reverie.ltd.uk/steering.php

Price list on pages 9, 10, and 11:http://www.reverie.ltd.uk/Down...9.pdf

More reasonable options:

MOMO Nero:

MOMO Millenium EVO:

MOMO GTR2:

[Dire91]

This would be cool even if none of the buttons work:

Except I believe those arent meant to make a full spin. In formula one they never turn more then like 3/4 of a spin right?

[Dano]

That Momo Nero looks pretty neat! Is that suede along the inside of the bottom of the wheel?

[asoomal]

MOMO Millenium EVO:

Best wheel ever! Doesn't look like a ricer steering wheel like the Nardi's or Nismo.

[flohtingPoint]

This would be cool even if none of the buttons work:

LOL! F1 wheels cost like 15k-50k (depending on team).

I dig the wheel that's on my AW11. It's rather small though.

[Dano]

I found my replacement wheel!!!!!!!!!1!!11!!!!!!one!!! FTW FTL SOL SOB !!!!11!1!!uno!!!

It's a Personal, like the old one.
It's 340mm, like the old one.
It's contoured, like the old one.
It's black leather, like the old one.
It's got blue stitch, like the old one!



Personal Neo Eagle 340mm, my next wheel! SOOO excited I found this, haha!

[MellowZ32]

why???????

[r34 gtr]

NOTE: bolt pattern on new wheel DOES NOT match bolt pattern on old wheel. Just so you know. Old one = momo hub, new one = ???

My old one was a nardi pattern. New one is nardi pattern as well... ?
