but for $200 including a boss kit (which vary from $50 to $100 on their own) you are looking at second hand or chinese copy stuff only. not going to find a genuine italian made leather momo or nardi for $100-$150 new... still nothing wrong with used if it's good nick. given it's something you use all the time though maybe consider saving a few more bucks and hold out for something nicer?

nardi deep corn

Enough Said!

Nothing wrong with the classic Nardi. i have one slight dish looks amazing and oldschool but still very modern and sleak. (also not totally out there on the PO PO radar)

However i also bought an OMP corsica (I think) in suede, mate has one on his drift car and it was amazing when i drove it so bought one.

If your an ebay fan, maybe check ebay UK for OMP and also Nardi at good prices. dont get a chinese or thailand copy get a real one. They just look better!

I found in 5 mins a couple of good ones on ebay UK (most genuine ones were in boss kit sets for Euro cars) maybe PM sellers to see whether they can ship just a wheel at a cheaper price given the Boss kit will weight a bit.

I would really recommend OMP. just feels so nice! and in the Gtr sits you back in the seat and great turning response. Flat face will sit alternatively rather forward depending on your driving style setup etc etc.

hope that helps!! whatever you do. if you can dont cheap out and get a shpecked up Ebay wheel get a decent one for a few hundred max or second hand and a nice boss kit. your car will thank you!

i did, honestly ive never liked the look of any of those sort of wheels. i just cant help thinking that they wouldnt look out of place in an old commy yucky.gif

imo go for either a nardi classic

see choosing either of those largely depends how you drive as well..While the nardi is more a drift wheel the momo style is a racers wheel.. those little hand grips promote confidence somewhat when cornering at high speed but they just get in the way if your sliding..

however if you dont plan on driving or sliding then just get whatever you think looks cool :D

MOMO Race

This is where I got mine from, seemed a bit sus cause it was so cheap, but mines genuine and in good condition

That 'Nissan' Wheel looks like a MOMO race with a big Nissan horn button from another steering wheel stuck onto it. Not nice at all. If you want something like that then you should just buy one of the Nissan horn buttons off ebay and replace the MOMO horn button with that. Would look alot nicer

No, the one the OP likes is truly, wonderfully, Awful!!!!

haha Yeah that saas is just cheap and tacky, the Nissan Momo is quality, but very ugly..

the one 89cal listed is very nice..I'd say its a winner.

so what does everybody else have, I got an Ol skool Fittipaldi wheel like this..38767874383_large.jpg

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.

      Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers

      R33 GTST Axles

      By tidi0x · Posted

      The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.

      Potentially some interesting data for some of you here; Hank Iroz from Iroz Motorsport testing a new Xona Rotor 5964S on a Audi RS3 2.5L DAZA motor. https://facebook.com/share/p/14EU18MyDqZ/ Cliff Notes: Turbo has the new Xona XRE compressor aero with an X4C compressor cover, reportedly 0.64 rear housing. 900whp (670kw) @ 37psi, 170k shaft speed, motor is making 2bar (29psi) boost by roughly 3800rpm, 500lbft (670nm) torque by 3500rpm. They overlaid a stock RS3 on USA 91 fuel (red), and a "Stage 2" RS3 on E85 (yellow), and this 5964S (blue) - the 5964S isn't losing any ground to either. Apparently out-flowing their prior tests with a Xona 8264S (green), and this 5964S (white) also has a smaller A/R than that did.
