yes nrg hub and release will work. whether or not you need a short hub will depend on if you got a deep wheel or not.

search, and you can find the answers to the last question. idk off the top of my head. different sort of release mechanisms i believe

get the worksbell short hub, it comes with the wires needed so that the airbag light wont come on.

nrg 1,2.0,2.5 are just different versions.

i have ver. 2.0 on my setup. ver 2.5 makes it easier to remove the steering wheel


worksbell short hub + nrg 2.0 quick release + Italvolanti steering wheel



hope this helps

yes you would still need the short hub from worksbell

http://mynismo.com/categories/?id=4985

thats where you can buy the short hub from, you can also buy the worksbell quick release from there as well. i choose nrg since it was a fraction of the cost, plus my buddy gave me a great price as well.

I don't know if the nrg short hub comes with the resistors as the shop where your buying it from if it does, but its pretty cheap to buy if it doesnt.

Remember, you'll need 2 resistors

Get the quick release 2.5, it makes it much easier to remove the steering wheel.

I had this exact set up only mine was suede.

Wheel
Quick release
Short Hub
2 resistors

Those are the parts that you need to have this identical set-up.

You dont have to get the quick release but then your wheel will be attached straight to the short hub and you will not be able to take it off and on.

i do believe the standard is 350mm. try the 320, it feels much more sporty

i have a 350mm in my setup and it makes me feel like a truck driver lol
