what do you guys think of a nrg quick release on my 04 civic? DO yall have anykinds of problems or is it pretty clean? Can you post some pictures i would like to see what yall have thanks

 

I have NRG short hub and v2.0 quick release. With Personal Neo Grinta 330mm.
I like it, changes the feel of the whole car haha. The airbag light will stay on, but I found a way around that... sort of

older pic with the wheel on..

 

It's pretty clean, as far as installation goes, but I'm thinking of getting rid of mine.

 

any particular reason why Matt??

 

The release mechanism is a bit annoying to find during release, and there is some minor play in the wheel due to the quick release. The short hub is fine, but the 2.5 ver. quick release leaves something to be desired.

 

I've herd sometimes they get play after a while. I've had mine since August and no play yet. I never really take it off either.

 

i had the version 2...and after 2 years of taking it off every night there was no play at all.

 

hmmm...i might be doing this soon. Im gonna read more about them bc i see that nrg has a shorter hub version that is supposed to eliminate play...

 

so whats the the difference in the version besides one being newer than the other? will u recommend the newer version. and is the shorter hub better as well? does anyone have a DIY so i can see how much work is requried thanks guys?

 

The difference between 2.0 and 2.5 is the 2.5 has little flares to make it easier to take the wheel off. That's it I think.

 

You need a hub regardless, bud. The quick release can't mount directly to the splines on the steering column. And without some sort of custom adapter plate, you won't be able to mount a steering wheel to a short hub. In essence, I'm saying that you need both the short hub and a quick release to mount the steering wheel properly.

 

hmmz, looks like i might be getting a new toy sometime soon

 

yeah thats exactly what i meant, so basically and size either a 2.0 or a 2.5 hub with a quick release will fit my em2 correct?

 

I have the EK/s2000/element NRG short hub. I also have the NRG v2.0 quick release. They are 2 different parts.

 

how do u get around the airbag light situation

 

will you recommend a 2.0 over a 2.5, im kinda leaning towards a ver. 2.0
