let me know what yout guys think.
also where can i get a hub adapter.

The real Nismo one looks cheaper than the knockoff. A few guys have the Momo steering wheels and they look dynamite, check those out. If $$$ is an issue theen the ebay one will work fine provided you get your hands on an adapter kit.

No. If you were really serious you'd get this.


From MSA. It is made for your car and easy to install.

That steering wheel looks no different to any other, it's the boss kit that's important... Once you have that just about any steering wheel will work, it's most definately not "made" for the z31.

Anyway I like the nismo one myself, the other one is too modern looking but that price is insane... I like the older style MOMO steering wheels myself.

You defenitly dont want those bootleg steering wheels. Put it this way, you get what you pay for. The MSA wheels are just Grant wheels, which is ok if your just after looks or you dont mind what a lower quality wheel. The only problem is it has a 5 bolt patter, where everythign else has 6. I had one of thier wheels and likeed it very much. But once you've tried a wheel such as Momo, Nardi, sparco, etc. you dont want to go back to something of less quality. Ive owned a Momo Race, and one of the older Momo Monte Carlos. You can find these wheels often for much less than the Reg price on ebay. I got a brand new Momo Race for 75$ with a momo porsche hub bolted onto it. I then turned around and sold the hub for 45, so what do you have then? A new momo wheel for 30 bucks. Look for auctions that start very low often at .99 cents and sometimes you get lucky and they end under 100 dollars. Here are some expamples

Again it's not even made to fit your car, no more than any other aftermarket steering wheel because you still need the boss kit...

I didn't mean that OLD lol



The more plain ones suit Z's better, some of the very newest ones look like flying saucers...

I must be numb. mine came with the boss kit and fit very nicely.
I love it ... better than the OEM wheel.

Definately, as someone said above though it's only got the 5 bolt pattern instead like most other wheels having 6... Im not sure what kind of bosskit it came with, some have spacing for both 5 and 6 bolts but others dont. Not a huge deal if you never plan on changing it, but if you did and it was a 5 bolt bosskit no others would work... Bosskits by themselves aint cheap either, like $50 or more for some.
