steering wheel question? NRG quick release

[24j0hn]

im gunna get an NRG quick release... but im confused ... do i need to buy a short hub along with the quick release and steering wheel? or can i just buy the quick release and steering wheel without the short hub?

NEW QUESTION: is the quick release hub universal with any steering wheel?

You will need a hub, quick release, and steering wheel.

[24j0hn]

alright then... time to start searching for cheap steering wheels

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Well, if you want to go the cheap way, get something like a circuit sports quick release. Cheap hubs are available too. Although I wouldn't suggest cheaping out on ANY steering components (even the wheel), what's the point of a nice quick release if you're getting a junk wheel? I would wait and save up a little for a dencent wheel.

Btw, here's a link. They have wheels, hubs, qr's etc....

yes you need the hub and the quick release

nrg short hub to nrg v2 quick release. with a none concave wheel the distance is relatively the same as a stock wheel.

[24j0hn]

a +0 offset steering wheel hahaha... will do... ill search around... koyo looks good tho

[ZX88]

i got my nrg stuff from koyo. i believe they are the cheapest.

[24j0hn]

yeah... they seem like the cheapest

Threadjack....All you guys with the quick release, does your horn work?

mine works.

Hey, don't mean to thread-jack either, but if I buy the NRG short hub and the NRG steering wheel will I be good to go without using the quick release? Also, will I be able to use my horn still?thanks

[driftneil]

It says even with the quick release and hub, you may still lose your horn.

[red240sx90]

if you are smart enough to hook up 2 wires then yes your horn will work with the QR.

That's what I figured, how about the turn signal cancel?

[24j0hn]

i think you can go without the quick release... dunno about the horn tho

Shifter extension?

the turn signal is hit or miss for me, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. oh well

Thats a problem, one of the reason I've been holding off.

[AZ89two4Tsx]

What is this "turn signal cancel" you guys speak of?

[driftneil]

What is this "turn signal cancel" you guys speak of?

When you hit your turn sig, then make your turn. It should turn the sig off, or cancel it. Sometimes when changing the wheel and hub, it doesnt cancel your turn sig.

[AZ89two4Tsx]

^ why is that? is it electronic or something? i don't really know how it works.

[red240sx90]

its not really a problem, just reach over and flick it off? are you that lazy?

its mechanical

[driftneil]

It a damn nuisance, it's mandatory from the factory for a reason. Because you can turn, the sig wont turn off, and someone might think your still turning. Then cut to the inside to pass you, and hit you.

I also have a question. When you take the steering wheel out, can someone steal your car using a wrench to steer the car? Also, can a thief just use another NRG wheel, attach it your hub, and steal your car?

[24j0hn]

well, the quick release is round and someone would have to weld the really large wrench to the hub and then hot wire the car to steal it

But I guess another QR might work on your hub?? And they do sell the QR locks, to put over the steering column.

WORD!

my buddy said he drove his type R hom 2okm without a steering wheel, just his bare hands on the qr, i say bull****!

ive had no problems with my qr, did a read up at

[dopplganger1]

i have the nrg short hub and yes the turn signal cancel works but without a qr the horn will not be able to work the button cannot go on because of the bolt that holds the hub on. if you dont want a qr then just go with a standard size hub. also ive seen people drive a car with no wheel with just the quick release hub and there hands so i would recomend the hub lock and also make sure to lock the stearing wheel in place before you pull the wheel off

[24j0hn]

does the aftermarket steering wheel feel better than the stock?
