Removing R33 Steering Wheel with Airbag?

[Anquetil]

I have a Momo steering wheel that I want to install, but can't see how I will get the factory wheel off.

It seems to have 2 special bolts on either side, I have no idea what will loosen them, looks like some special tool is neeed?

I plan to have no HICAS, so am assuming I won't need a BOSS kit?

Anyone no how to get it off, or what tool is needed?

TIA!

You'll need a special Torx key/screwdriver, Size is T50

undo them, then the airbag bit will drop forward, then unplug it and the other plug in there, then a 20mm socket goes over the center nut, undo that, then just pull at the steering wheel side to side it will come off..

i'd make sure your wheels are pointing directly straight before doing this so you dont end up putting steering wheel back on off centre...

Thanks Ferni, will give it a shot.

Did you get a airbag momo wheel?

If not, prepare to get defected. You cannot replace a airbag wheel with one that doesn't have an airbag.

(Ie, if you wan't to do it, keep the airbag wheel)

you mite need a HICAS lock kit. my friend's silvia has the HICAS error light and also the steering is abit funny sometimes after changing his steering wheel. i'm not to sure about the skylines tho.
