st_mok Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 Anyone know anything about quick release steering wheel? Like cost, Where to get one Anything and everything about them Quote
nizm0zed Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 You'll have to find a later model 'cool car' (ricermobiles ect) that has the same boss kit spline ect, then it'll be easier to find something to suit, Eg, if a R32 skyline one fits, you'll find more of them than for a S30. Not to say they dont exist for our cars, but you'll probably have to ask through some specialist race workshops/stores eg, Stewart Wilkins, MSA (in america), Revolution racegear ect ect. You should also check the legalities of using it, you'll probably find its not legal on the road. I dont know for sure, so im not going to say it is or it isnt. I do have to ask though, why do you want one? As part of the theft prevention of the car? Difficult to get in and out with a full cage and side bars? fully sic street cred? Quote
thriller Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 I've got one in my S13. Mainly for 'fully sic street cred' lol. No, but the few extra seconds clipping a wheel on or off make a decent bit of difference to a lanky Australian trying to fit in a 90's sardine-tin-on-wheels with a bucket. If you can't find the info on the internet I'll go out and see if S13 splines match the S30. You'll find that unless you have either a slim boss kit, or a slim quick release kit, you'll probably have to take your hand off the wheel to reach the stalks. Not necessarily a bad thing once you're used to it, but it's different. Mine was $50 second hand. Check ebay etc. They sell the slim ones for $120 in America I think. If you're totally clueless, you'll need a boss kit (for an aftermarket steering wheel, this will have splines to match the S30 steering shaft). Then you'll just bolt the quick release hub onto that, and the steering wheel onto the quick release hub. Quote

dat240z Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 I just put one in the 240z when interior was complete. Check out Sparco quick release hubs on Ebay states. I got it for $70ish, not so much for the look, although is kinda cool.. but moreso for security. Its attached to the boss kit for my sparco wheel. Im 6ft 3 and it does help i gues but still dont need one to get in or out. Quote
