I am keeping all my OEM parts. Check ebay. I saw a Max steering wheel at a pretty good price a couple weeks ago.

 

that looks freakin' sweet

hmmmm another mod for my 5th gen...

 

clean. me like.

 

Everyone here must be tasteless and nuts. That wheel looks awful. And 700$ and all the pain for that?? GJ on the work done, you have some skill to replace that, but next time buy some leather and stitch wrap your wheel for 50 bucks. My wheel looks 10 times better.

So your airbags dont work now?

 

Talk is cheap. Lets see a picture of your steering wheel.
Furthermore, the steering wheel looks great!

To deny that is just plain tasteless & nuts...:stfu:

 

The airbags work. He is entitled to his opinion. I want to hear all opinions, good or bad.

 

I'm with you cool, that's pretty harsh talk for a n00b. Personally I think that wheel is SICK Deusman. Again I couldn't give up my amenities, radio controls etc. but it's a gorgeous wheel. And best of all, I bet your the only one around with that baby on and who doesn't like to be different?

 

Im pretty sure he just has one of those pep boy's covers, and a couple of dice hanging from the rear view mirror. ha!,

To say momo does not make good looking shist, is like saying hey! im blind.

 

Yeah you can tell its a Momo - great quality, great feel, nice and tight. I was driving it for a bit and you can feel the road better. It weighs one pound less than stock, about 15% (7.5 lbs versus 6.5 lbs), so the power steering cranks it around easier. It has this thicker part at the bottom so when ur cruising u hold on to it. Its pretty neat.

 

MOMO makes some of the nicest stuff I've ever seen. EXTREME high quality products. I'd buy anything MOMO in a heartbeat w/out question. The MOMO gearshift I have is incredible quality.

 

this looks awesome! i would miss steering wheel audio controls

 

Actually, you wouldnt. You'd be too busy doing this - - - >

 

More pics:

 

I have been driving the car for a few days with the new wheel. Steering response is better due to the lighter steering wheel. The quality of teh steering wheel is VERY obvious. Much tighter feel and better thicker leather. You feel the road better too. There is this thick part at the bottom of the wheel that is perfect when you go on longer drives. Ill be using that all the way to the SEMA show next week.

Lookin forward to my seats comin in tomrrow or friday.

 

The guy I bought the steering wheel from has at least one in stock and asked me to ask you all if you're interested. Any takers????

 

Here is the steering wheel I would have if I could Deus.

 

Yeah, try to find THAT!!!

 

Deus, I really want to try this on a 5.5 gen. Do you think there would be much difference in doing that swap? Could you also take a picture from the side of the wheel so we could see the thickness? The steering wheel mounted controls are kinda separate from the wheel on the 5.5 gen so maybe those could be disconnected, and rerouted like a wired remote? Also interested in those Evo leather seats, sorry to copy you, but seems like the perfect combo.

 

LMAO even if you could it'd prolly cost a G!

 

zerotosixty: I bet it would swap on ur 5.5 gen. Ill get u pics later this week. The wheel is a great piece and Im pleased I got it. What do u mean by thickness? Rim thickness or thickness in the center part? I agree, the steering wheel and seats really are a great combo, especially now that Ive driven it a bit. Ill be really trying it out tomorrow as I drive to Vegas (250 miles) for SEMA

 

How did I miss this? Nice work Deus. You and Chris keep one upping each other and I love it!

 

Im not sure my JDM steering wheel and Recaro seats compares to his turbo, but thanks.

 

Well the great thing is you aren't "head to head" per se, but you each have equally innovative mods. It would be boring if you both had the same types of mods. Apples and oranges I guess.

Don't be so modest, IMHO a fully retrofitted interior is on the same level of high end engine work. Both require custom work ,both are relatively spendy and both are relatively exclusive.

 

think that would work on 5.0 and 5.5

 

Good chance since Nissan swapped parts a lot and standardize many things. For example, Altima and Maxima share many parts.

 

Awesome!!! I really like how it matches with your interior Great job and thank you for taking the time to do a how-to complete with pix.

 

Looks great. Its great that there are members who try different things on their rides. Good luck

 

Looks awesome Mark. I love how you execute everything in a meticulous manner. It's the little things that really make a car stand out.

 

That wheel looks killer man! also i love you car. i just bought a max 04 black spd. i like the mods youve done. dont worry i wont copy you but very clean man.

 

I am honored when someone does the mods I have done because I have done it and they are good mods. Most recently, my tail light overlays are being purchased and installed.
