It's the 3 spoke one (leather wrapped).. How much do these go for and do they bolt on?





Does anyone have one on their R?

 

Why don't you get the JDM SRS?

 

is that different from the JDM everyone lusts after?

 

Cause the JDM SRS is $800+!

 

$$$.$$
Very

 

ah ok. i like that one better i guess

 

So is any other SRS wheel. You have to remember an Airbag alone costs 500-800 then the wheel is another 400-500

That UKDM wheel is the same as the JDM one except for that center section (All you would have to do is switch it with the JDM one. But no matter what you'll still end up paying 1200-1300 for a New complete SRS wheel.

 

This isnt true, the true JDM wheel has perforated leather and a little more fancy leather wrapp.



Now take a look at the first few pics.

WHY...do we in the US get stuck with some of the ugly things? Is it me, but didn't BMW come out with that 3-spoke style first, with the airbag? Well...the first time I saw that style was in a BMW.

 

the AUS/JDM Momo steering wheel is also found in one of the Ferrari's. I believe it's the 550 Maranello.

Here are some pics but not a good shot!

 

Heres another pic...

 

yeah i knew DC2 AUSDM spec R's had the same steering wheel as the maranellos!....

 

Its the Same MOMO wheel in all of these cars Just different center sections and on the JDM it has a slight change in the wrap. But the center is interchangeable on all of them.

 

Yeah thats the Australian Type R Wheel alright..........you USA Guys should consider buying it out of New Zealand as they sell all OEM Type R parts direct from Honda.......not only that the Australian Dollar is stronger than NZ and compared to USA the Australian Dollar is play money!!

 

whats the current exchange rate?

 

At the moment One US Dollar Buys You almost 2 Australian Dollars.........so here for me to buy a Spoon rear tower bar is $200 so thats $100 US plus shipping and most Australian Companies will ship to he USA

 

got any numbers for any Aussie dealers? I could use a new wheel in a little while

 

email this guy

DWorthington@honda.co.nz

he is the rep for ITR Parts for Honda New Zealand they are hella cheaper than Australia and your dollar is stronger than theirs than it is against the Aussie

 

I do have co-workers/contacts at Ford of Australia and the guys are very willing to hunt things for me. Usually they take only a day to get back with the cost of things. Shipping is very reasonable.

E-mail me if you're interested.

 

nicee nice

 

you guys are all a bunch of ****.... you already have a SRS wheel that works....

if they had the 4 spoke, you'd still all be crying...

just ******* drive...

I beg to differ. Our steering wheel sucks badly. If you've ever driven the car with one you might think differently.

U know what's funny? One of the things people comment about in Ferraris and Porsches and all M Series BMWs is the steering wheel. Well, the ROW [Rest-of World] ITR has the same feel as theirs.

 

uh, M series - been there done that... Ferrari 355 - btdt. and the wheel maketh the car not.

George... what with the edit?

D

 

OBVIOUSLY, the wheel doesn't "make the car". But riddle me this: Why would they have offered the car with a MOMO wheel at all. And why would the ROW car have the - by all accounts - nicer seats? And why would the JDM car have 16" wheels? Some would prefer to have the car specced as they are in Japan - or close to it. Just as many people would like their BMW or Porsche to be specced as it is in Europe. Of course, there are those who "wear" their gear, but who needs to bring them up? Suffice it to say that few have ever complained about the feel of an anatomical steering wheel and there's nothing like gripping a TIGHTLY wrapped leather one to boot.

 

Holy gigantic steering wheel, Batman!

Looks like to me the JDM SRS wheel and the USDM SRS wheel is the same size.
