I can feel the pull between 4500 and 9500 RPM since I installed this wheel. I recommend to anyone. . I still gotta dyno, but I bet I've added like 50 HP. :D

The wheel is in GREAT shape. . I don't think it's ever been used before. .

I still have to wire the cruise control, but I'm gonna do that here in a bit. . (I replicated the switch on the bottom of the column using three momentary buttons)

S14a steering wheel.

Althought I *think* the lower model Skylines utilize the same wheel, series 2 skylines that is.

Not much into JDM upgrades and that steering wheels seems no different than any other for that matter...
