bottom one should fit since it's a momo.

top one won't as it's nardi, and will probably be expensive buying one with an intact airbag centre.

pretty sure it bolts right up.

as far as i know momo bosses all have the same 6 bolt pattern.

Cheers mate. For your information...this particular Momo wheel has an integrated boss ie. the wheel and boss are one unit and cannot be separated. The interior is from a 1996 NA - VR Ltd B spec (JDM).

As far as the steering shaft spline is concerned, from NA through to NC they are all the same. However, how the various steering wheels interact with the various column surrounds and indicator/light stalks/airbag units; I wouldn't be surprised if there were some conflicts between models.

Yes and you are correct, the air-bag won't work unless you have everything else that goes with it.

Yes, definitely no problem fitting the NA8 wheel on an NA6. Yeah there's not too many of them floating around. Have seen them on ebay only a few times in the past 3 years.

1.Forget about fitting the NB wheel...not worth putting on a air bag...will cost you a fortune...I could sell you a steering wheel but it goes with the 2 Air bags...would cost you $1500. minimum.

2.As stated the late model NA Momo wheel has the boss as part of the steering wheel...but it does fit any model NA or NB.

You can use the deployed air bag but would have to get it recovered as it rips open...not sure if it would look very good.

By the way, this is what an Aust-delivered NA8 wheel looks like:

As Danny said the particular wheel you've linked is JDM.

The Momo wheel in the photo is the one fitted to the later model NA8s in Australia.

The wheel shown in orx626's car is the same as in my Aus. delivered 96 LE- no airbag.

It is hard to get off,when I took it for an alignment they could get it off to re-centre the steering wheel, had to compensate under the car.

Has anyone taken one off?

Yes. No problem. Removed the centre nut, banged around the rim of the wheel and then applied alternating force to the rim as I pulled it towards me without hitting myself when the spline/taper lock released.

Factory NA8 or NB Steering wheels into NA6?

Looks like a WRX wheel. Looks like it has an integrated boss for the Suby (like ORXs - integrated boss for the 5). I think that's a no go.

Looks like another integrated hub (if the hub is for a 5, fine). You need a wheel which has basically nothing attached (then fit the correct hub).
