Can you identify this steering wheel?

[blackline]

This wheel is on the 1996 GTS-T skyline I have recently purchased

This wheel is different to other 1996 ones that I have seen.

Is this steering wheel a genuine 1996 one or not?

(Please see pic here)

hrm... looks like something out of a Maxima or a S14 maybe?

Thats if it aint a stock one. (i dunno what stock 33 ones look like)

yeh genuine nissan came out of the 95series probably if ya series 11 is an early edition than it might have that steering wheel. I have it on my series 1 95. Most series 11 would have the sports leather type steering wheel. That i have come across.

maybe car was in an accident and they just put a 95 instead as may be cheaper.

This i know for sure Its a R33 Gtst Series II Steering Wheel with Airbag.

looks like the same one in my 95 R33 gtr

looks like the same one in my 95 R33 gtr

Some of them too depends what models (year) etc.

[Guest RedLineGTR]

Different Series GTR's Come with a blue stitch or a red stitch or black stitchings for the leather for R33 GTR factory wheels (also this differs with the design too) with airbags etc..alot of variables...but the steering wheel if from a later model r33 as the dash (sandpaper like suface) is like all the Series 2 gtst's i have seen and series 2 gtr's.

ahh ok, mine is a bit worn i want a new one - any idea how much they are for a new/near new one?

[Guest RedLineGTR]

Honestly i cant give you a concrete price but i have seen steering wheels similar to this and different design ones for differences series’ or gtr etc (series 1,2,3) go from $300-$1000 in most cases the main factory is what series each one if from and what condition. Don’t have any pics of the differences between series’ but I have seen them in person. I'm sure some people who have gtrs themselves can shed some more light on the issue.

I was lucky to get a series II that came standard with Momo wheel.

[Guilty]

blackline that is the standard nissan SII skyline steering wheel.

why i know? coz its exactly the same as mine and i have a 96 gtst as well...

That is not a series 2 stock wheel!!

it is either not a full series 2(ie its a series 1.5 as people say) or it has been changed

does the rest of your car have the series 2 features, ie, seat trim, dash, bonnet, front bar, headlights.. etc..

?

check the build date of your car (on the aus compliance place) which might show thats its an early 1996 model..

here is an interior picture of my ex series 2 gts-t (1996 build)

All other features as you state are series 2

[nmcmahon83]

well mine is S1 non-airbag and mine looks better

[r33skylinegtst]

the one on mine looks just like siksII's does, and its an early 96 model.

[nmcmahon83]

Sorry to digress, but dont people say that the SII dash/interior looks better than the SI??? My dash looks the same as siksII's, and i reckon my interior seats/mats look better : mine is 93 SI...

The people who say that are just uneducated. The series 1 interior (if in good condition) is better than the Series 2 interior.

Nissan skimped on the S2 seats to save money after adding airbags and stuff.

Most Series 2's though are in better condition since they're newer so this is probably where the rumour comes from.

my 97 sII has the same wheel as siksII as wel
