[sewid]

MCR have fit up the carbon paddles that move with the steering now as well as an extremely hot looking Nardi wheel:

Looks like shit i still perfer the factory steering wheel

Airbags suck.

You speak from experience?

I still don't know why people think chucking on Nardi steering wheel will make it the hottest shit in the galaxy. I effing hate nardi wheels, it looks shit on all modern cars. It barely looks ok on drift cars. The only cars it looks dead hot on are the old Z or the old school GTR with their old style interior.

Nardi wheels are hot. I wouldn't put one in MY 35 GTR but i'd definitely have one an older car I had in my garage.

Paddles = Random sex with a model

Wheel = The model's gay agent 'Roberto' locking you in the toilet and stripping.

Stock wheel looks shit loads better

I would have thought this would have sparked more discussion on the pro's versus cons of moving the paddles WITH the wheel or leaving them as std and fixed to the column.

My vote goes to keep them fixed to the column as per std (they're always where you expect them to be in that case), although the carbon is rather porn.

That steering wheel has ruined that interior! Makes it look 20 years older, no thanks!

IMO the paddles should move with the wheel so they are dead square with your hands on hard cornering. I've never driven a car with flappy paddles but the ones on the factory GTR work totally fine from the looks of it in the recent Fifth Gear review.

They're big so even when you're cornering they aren't hard to reach. So i'd say stick with factory because it works!

BUT it mightn't be the same on other cars. I saw another review of some Euro car (bloody forgot), and the reviewer was turning hard, wanted to change up and needed to actually move his hand from the wheel to reach the paddle. That's annoying and dangerous

It looks somewhat nice... not the best - I'd prefer the stock but if I had to use aftermarket for motorsport use etc that would look fine...

Lol, tuners got nothing for the R35 so far
