Am I Going To Skyline Purgatory?

[PanzyFresh]

hey guys - today is my first day on sau so not sure if this is the right place for this...

but

bought a momo gearknob and boot, and thought about momo steering wheel and pedals and the like...and only now after ive bought and fitted it all ive realised im driving a japanese car with italian interior? i mean - im committing a sin! should jap cars stay true to the jap theme? i think my skyline has an identity crisis...i was just after everyones thoughts/opinions...???

[shepo]

firstly, welcome to sau,

to be quite honest with you its your car, so you can do whatever you like with it. does it really matter what other people might think?

Momo is a really good quality brand and i think that our skylines deserve the best!

mine has a sparco steering wheel and i love it.

just my opinion...

It's like seeing a HKS muffler on a Commodore VT SS.. OH MY GOD! HAHA!!

Thats cool man I gota Nardi Torino one on mine.

IF someone can tell me where they company is from that will be great, Im probley just genralising but it sounds Italian, but you know the Japanese, they can use all sorts of names LOL!

ie. Mario and Luigi (Mario Brothers) are created by the Japanese. LOL!

Having MOMO stuff is fine IMO. The newer R34s, Stageas and V35s actually have an optional momo shifter and steering wheel as well. I don't see anything wrong with that. My brothers Evo9 comes with a MOMO factory steering wheel.

its when you start putting in wack chinese/taiwanese brands from those dodgy car accessories places that you should think twice

Correct.

[madbung]

One of the leading brands in auto accesories, got a wheel myself..love it.

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Correct.

Ah so it is Italian.

Thanks!

Yes, yes you are,

You also typed this post in english, big no no. Next time do it in Japanese kanji while you're at it...

Then go and watch a sumo wrestling match while you eat sushi and have an unhealthy obsession with highschoolgirl's used panties

Seriously though, does it really matter?

My R34 came with factory option Bilstein shock absorbers and they are also a factory option on my Z ($4,500 my @ss Nissan)

GTR's from the R33 onwards have Brembo brakes, RX7's/MX5's/RX8's all have optional Nardi steering wheels etc.

So even from factory it isn't all Japanese.

It goes both ways too though... read somewhere that the final lamborghini Diablo used 300ZX headlights, they even covered up the "Nissan" logo on the inside by putting a sheet of carbon fibre over the top of it.

Lotus use a celica engine etc. etc.

subaru wrx's come with momo steering wheels as well. i wouldnt mind having some momo stuff in my car, i like it.

[NA_Goodness]

I have a MOMO steering wheel, good quality brand. What about all the cars with Turbosmart BOVs? OR GFB parts? They're 2 aussie brands! Or leather retrims... they dont use japanese cows. I dont think it matters that much. Now... putting an audi badge on a skyline is an entirely different thing tho

Never used momo stuff but sounds pretty gay, thank you for reading.

I will use the fewest words to satisfy your question... The Japs called their Japanese-produced, engineered and designed car, a Nissan "Skyline" - need I say more? Who cares where something is made or designed... for all we know, some of the part inour cars might have been produced in China... hahah

i have momo wheel, shoulder pads and ebrake cover. momo is a good quality reputable brand so i'm happy to use it. autotechnica on the other hand...

[Mr Eps]

.....how much you want for that momo steering wheel

My old fc rx7's came factory with Momo's.. I'm now using one in my skyline as a momento.. and because I'm poor.

[GTR-32U]

momo is great stuff.....But I am not so keen on the pedals thing...never have been....but for steering wheels ...second to none...I love them to death...next car will definately have one...
