Anti Vibration- Steering Wheel

[Ishman]

Hi,

I had a request to post a pic of this. It is, apparently, an anti vibration mechanism which is built into stock steering wheels- mine was R33 GTR 95 model. It has four rubber connection points; all of mine had broken and it was floating about making a loud rattle (heavy sounding, part is probably 0.4kg) and setting my horn off on tight turns-intersections, cap parks etc If you have a loud ratle/vibration and gremlins in your steering wheel/column, this may be the culprit!

Ive had that same problem. Ended up leaving it in there but zip tied it down so it wouldn't rattle.

Had they broken from a former front ender?

Useful info tho...

I hadn't thought of that,now that I do , the rubber isn't exactly perished, the bonnet/hood does apper to be a replacement ( has RB25 info on sticker, doesn't line up exactly), has new radiator . Also has plenty of other new gear throughout so may not be related; everything is really solid, and had Fulcrum spend much time reseting the suspension and didn't report any issues. Surely, given the age of most of these cars, and the likelyhood they may have been in some sort of collision, more people would have had an issue with this part. Anyone had one dislodge without running into anything?
