ok well im looking to buy a steering wheel plus quick release hub, what would you guys recommend? i just hate how the stock steering wheel is soo far away from my body, i like to sit kinna far back, since im 5'11..

what would be a good combo so the wheel is right in front of me in a comfy position and not far and awkward to hold..lol

works bell hubs any good? im not sure if they are even quick release ..and i like this wheel, anyone have any experience with personal?

Search the vendors all around the outside of the page there and find the one that you want to buy. They are all similar, just you need to figure out the one for you. Stop making these threads about which part should I buy, like this one they will not get responded to.

I agree, we could recommend which one you should buy, but in the end, it's all about personal prefrences.

Don't get the "boss kit" or whatever they call it on zilvia selling for like $20. By far the s***tyest part on my car. Spend your money on a decent nrg hub.

Works Bell makes very good products (most companies like NRG are copies of Works Bell imo). And yes they make quick releases as well.

as far as steering wheels, you can't go wrong with Personal.

well to be honest i use nico for this reason exactly people usually give pretty good input, i'de rather have suggestions rather than just spending $300-$400 on something i might not like, but yes i have been looking around..

and thanks adrians! i'm going to roll with a works bell hub! since they are cheap too!

$200 shipped to your door. hell ill even throw in a pyrometer (egt) gauge lol Plus nothing beats the factory feel on a steering wheel. I could never order one online with out actually touching it. OEM wheels feel great.

i have nrg slim hub and quick release 2.5 and it's awesome. I have some jdm white 330mm regular dish wheel i got from godzilla on zilvia. Took about a month to get here and it's pretty cool but im prob gonna buy a new wheel eventually one that is suade.

I am also tall I am like 6'1" so it was hard to decide on what setup I wanted. When I drift I like to sit kinda close so the regular dish wheel is good for that. If I liked to sit further back I would have gotten a deep dish wheel.
