Can anybody recommend me a high quality quick release? price does not matter. also, what are the specific differences between the hex, Spline, and ball bearing?


i am currently interested in the following. feel free to add any input on your experiences with various types of quick releases.

Splash



Signal


Works Bell
RapfixI

RapfixII


Sparco


SPA technique



Esses



my main concern is deciding for a quick release that is made of hi-material with little or no play. i dont want to go cheap on a quick release that can cost me my life.

 

up

 

I like the works bell. The new version looks pretty good!

 

[s2x] quoted that splash is an illegal copy of worksbell.

 

NAR SPEC

 

I got the sparco , im happy

 

signal imo

 

those are all very nice quick releases, but imo, it brings the steering wheel much to close to the driver. to fix this, you could get the splash boss made specifically for these hubs, they are shorter in length

Don't get Signal quick release because most of them have a "play" in them when you shake the steering wheel.

 

Signal

 

nrg! mine has no play whatsoever...and it was cheap, too.

 

I have a signal qick release. I have no complaints about it, there is no slop with it at all

i agree with the play. i had to deal with one for a week. but on a side note, the quality is very nice over others i seen. i think i would buy a signal if i were to buy one.

Agreed. Absolutely the best product I've bought for my car in a while. No play whatsoever, and excellent quality. I got mine through Evasive Motorsport, got it really quick, and I've been using it for about a month, very nice piece.

 

sparco but it was a pretty hefty price...

 

Signal looks good. These things are the ultimate anti-theft device too

 

no most f00z have pliers with them, yes I have seen cars being drive with channel locks

only the wheel boot and a battery disconnect and 3 guys with Uzi's and owning a Daihatsu will keep thieves away

 

there is one quick release that i just foudn out about. its called L2. ive seen it first hand and it has no play what so ever. the guy that has it on his ae86 and canyons his car daily. plus, it spins when u lock it on. thank you guys for your input, im trying to find info on this L2 quick release.

 

I used sparco and my horn didnt work, so i would go with the signal..i have heard good things about them.

 

i found this. this was the quick release a guy had on his car for about a year now and its sold. No play.


i was wondering if i can use this hub with a rapfix lock

The NRG unit is exactly the same. YOu can put the wheel on anyway you want, and it will lock into place when you rotate it automatically.

With the wheel off...

 

im kinda new to this stuff... so when you buy these quick release hubs, they have to be compatible with a certain steering wheel so u can use it right? its not a universal thing?

so all you need when you want this setup is a quick release hub and an aftermarket steering wheel that works with it?

sorry for the noob question.. not familiar with this stuff.
