Steering Wheel question

[Drift-wood]

Hello all, So I been into 240's for a good 6+ years and have owned many. I finally took the splash and stopped buying beat up junk and spent the alot more extra then I would have wanted and bought a Clean fully OEM untouched and company maintained s14.

With this big purchase I decided to only grace it with worthy parts !

This leads me to my question. On the past 3 240's I have owned I used this little cheap china knock off... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...333d3

I was wondering if someone out there can lead me in the direction of what it was knocked off of? I love the wheel and it fits me really well.. If I can't find a true version of it I'll probably end up with the knock off again.

For the less than 50$ price tag the quality has always been really good and I have had no issues with them at all. I had one for over 3 years before.

Though I have never been in a wreck and gave it face (LOL) So I do not know if it poses any safety hazard.

Also, I found this on Super Streets website its very close to the knock off but I do not like all that embroidery stuff on it. I'm a real clean no brand name showing kind of guy lol.. I even take the badges off my electronics LOL

Thanks for helping me out guys, and I'll get pics of the car up as soon as I can. This is my First S14 and my first nice car with AC!! So I'm pretty stoked right now.

it looks really close to sparco champion edition with a hint of nardi in there, personally it looks like junk to me, but i guess if you like it who cares

[Drift-wood]

Thank You very much..!That looks exactly like it minus the holes which liked but no big issue there. The sparco one you posted is exactly what I was trying to find.

Question is if I buy a ebay knock of if I am really losing anything? I had one 3 years and it ever even showed signs of wear.

What is your guy's take?

Honestly, steering wheels don't do much other than help steer the car. If you get a knock off that works fine and fits perfectly, who cares? It's a wheel and you like it.

Not like steering the car is a big deal or anything..

haha but yeah 35 bucks is pretty cheap so not really a loss if you don't like it.

the only thing ive noticed with cheaper wheels is that their flimzy

im actually looking for a strong wheel that dosent feel cheap

i got a quick disconect from my buddy and we used the wheel for the golf cart haha so im looking for a wheel too (6 bolt) and not a small 12 incher either

lol?

steering wheel knockoff is no big deal now if you want to turbo your car thats a different story....

[Drift-wood]

Well, I have used the 35$ many times before this would be my 4th one. They all felt good to me and I liked them. As for all my other cars knock offs never touched my engine bay lol that's just like sticking a gay man In a onsen. Lmao not a good idea only bad can come of it!

[Drift-wood]

I think I made my mind up I'm just going to say screw it and buy the knock off I have loved them and it's not like Im going to use the shifty hub that comes with it. I'm going to get a name brand quick release.

Also does anyone know if NRG wheels and hubs are good quality. They make a deep dish that looks like what I want for 90$

[JustDriftMore]

nrg makes some pretty good stuff i mean their no works bell but there good

Omp a reputial (is this even spelled right! Lol) brand?Because nrg or them seems to be where I'll end up. My only real worries are buyingfrom someone that charges 100+ and is the same quality as the 35$ one.

LOL at all the comments in this thread, there is a huge difference between a crappy ebay wheel and a real wheel as well as hubs etc.

If you have never owned a nice setup obviously you are not experienced enough to contrast between the two.

You get what you pay for
