well maybe someone can clear this up, cause I have the NRG quick release as well.

 

Art raced with it last year with no problems, i think it's fine.

 

it is a good product?

 

have to ask someone else, mine is still in the box

 

I'm not too crazy about it, it puts the steering wheel pretty far out, and the release/lock mechanism is kind of akward to use.

I use the Mark Williams quick releases.

 

what is his website? im open to whatever. need to order something by tomorrow.

thats why you buy the new nrg short hub.its puts the steering whell in the same position at it was stock.

I agree with Tony1 - all of those style adaptors/quick releases sit very far out from the factory stop. The one we had on our EG would not center either - we swithed to the Strange style that has a weld on end as well as self centering for the same placement everytime...

 

mark williams is by far the best one

 

so is the nrg usable for nhra, if not is their a web site for these other guys u are talking about?

 

i have used alot of those hubs, mark williams is by far one of the best and its just cleaner install...

i think the mark williams thing is a little more work than what i want.
ill get the nrg deal, tack weld the bolts so it will be welded in place & still be able to remove if needed to.

 

i like the old style NRG on my car. it was a little harder to detach it when it was brand new but once you use it a little more its easy. I dont think its a problem having it come closer to me, if anything i like it more. to NRG QR although i havnt tried the competetors. (i.e. Mark williams)

I don't know the rule but they definately checked my mark williams hub at englishtown for an sfi badge. If its not a splined unit I wouldn't get it.

 

well just order the markwilliams 6 bolt setup. i liek the price as well. aslo less parts are needed to make it work.
plus i get thier quck release.
psarco racer2 sterring wheel
NRG hood dampners.
all for the same price as buying everything from NRG u cant go wrong.
would of bought NRG product but their release aint leagal, sorry duds.

 

so i was looking at MarkWilliams products and was noticing on ghostworks that there was welds...

But in package that mark williams offers a spline comes with it.why?

 

because the spline section that they give you must be welded onto you existing steering column.

 

would this be alright for street use?

good info to know. thanks

 

is the Markie Mark williams bolt to the stock colum spline? or do you weld it on?

 

You have to build shims to adapt it to the oem steering shaft and then weld it on. Don't try it at home...
