    Non-tilt steering column?

    Was the Z31 available without a tilt column? All of the cars I've owned have had tilt columns. I'd really like to source a non-tilt if they made them.

    They sure were, but I don't know if in the US.

    Didn't Canada get an SF grade that was very base model?

    I don't think my UK has a tilt column. It's really annoying as the wheel is so high.

    Thanks guys. Sound like Nissan they made them but didn't offer them stateside. Courtesy doesn't show anything except tilt.

    I might be able to get you one. If you're interested enough to pay for shipping from Europe, we can talk.

    Appreciate the offer Kaur, but its probably not worth the cost/effort for me. I'll just take a harder look at the mechanism and see if there is a way to "de-tilt" it and remove all the excess material.

    I'm pretty sure my SF was non adjustable but still had the ability to tilt up to aid getting in and out of the vehicle.

    The non-tilt looks very simple, shouldn't be hard to make
