I recently got this 1990 300 it has a aftermarket jdm quick release steering wheel that i really dont care for. I got a factory one off a 1993 at the salvage yard. Just realized its a different factory wheel than the 1990. I dont care about the air bag just wonder if it will match up the same.

AFAIK it should be a direct swap, i've seen 90-92 wheels on 93+ cars so it should be a direct bolt on.

Yes they are a direct swap, even the 240sx steering wheel will fit.

I'd eventually like to make a similar swap on my 90. Just not a fan of the 3-prong non-airbag style.

It worked its alot more comfortable. Going to have to hook the horn up to a switch.

Don't need to hook horn to a switch. I undid the previous owners hack job even though the harness was missing. What you do is run a wire from horn terminal on the back of the steering wheel up to the Junction box under the hood on the drivers side. You'll have to pop the box up and slightly apart to locate the wire going into the horn relay. Pick your favorite way to tap into the wire and cut it in. Now you have a steering wheel horn!
