I purchased this wheel not too long ago, and I'm just curious what year/model skyline it came from? I'm thinking of selling it on Ebay, since I need money to get my car back on the road.

thanks in advance

That's not an R33 either. If I had to guess I'd say R32.

R33's have standard airbags. The steering wheel looks like every other Nissan from the mid 90's (except the S14, which is a 3 spoke instead of 4).

How many different wheels were in the R32. Here are two different ones from Ebay, both of which are not like mine.

I think yours is a GT-R one. Trying to picture the interior of an R32 GT-R in my head, but I've only ever seen a few R32s in person.

I've been looking everywhere on the net for interior pics. But most skylines have aftermarket wheels in them. : (

Anyone wanna buy this wheel, regardless? Make me an offer....

Ok. Thanks guys for your input. I've stumbled across a website and found the answer. It is from an R33 GTS25T.

Here's the page

Look at the pictures closer, the R33 is different. For one, the background behind the S is silver on the R32. Also, the center piece (thats removable) is different. The spokes are also larger on the R33.
