hi, just wondering if anyone has done this, putting a GTST/GTS4 steering wheel into a 89 Ti R31 sedan? I already have a steering wheel but am wondering if I need a boss kit fo r it?

I know I could just rip the old one off and try it but would rather do it once and have all the bits I need when I do it.

any help would be great

I had an R32 GTR wheel in my 89 R31 Exec. the indicators didn't cancel themselves - that may have just been because the stupid plastic bits had worn down - I can't remember now. But it never bothered me because the same thing had happened to the standard wheel anyway, so I was used to cancelling the indicators myself.

The indicators never cancel in my r31 which has an aftermarket steering wheel. But my mates r31 with a standard steering wheel never cancelled either so I assumed it was an r31 thing. But anyway you get used to it.

Just try putting it on. It will only take less than 5 mins to find out if its gunna fit or not. If it doesn't then you need a boss kit of some sort.

cause that a gt passage which is high jap quality

the other ones are crappy aussie quality and everything breaks or falls apart of gets damaged really bad by the sun

therefore the indicators dont cancel by themselves

every r31 i have been in has not had the indicators cancel by themselves

every r31 i have been in has not had the indicators cancel by themselves

Don't blame the cars... blame the owners. :P

We've got 3 R31's in the driveway, 2 of them have aftermarket steering wheels, and the indicators work as they should in all 3.

My memory isn't the greatest but I seem to recall looking at a 32 wheel and deciding it wouldn't work at all with my existing indicator switches. Have you guys used the 32 switches, I thought the wiring plugs didn't go together. What is involved? I'm still usin my standard wheel, still about 1-2 notches on the spline crooked from when I put it back on, damn I'm lazy...

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
