i just bought a nismo steering wheel what esle do i need to install it?<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> do i need a hub or what please help. thanks
is it a big ol' steering wheel with a hub built in (look like a stock steering wheel?) or is it literally just the wheel with some spokes and a couple holes in the center?
If it's the latter, you will need either a nismo or nardi hub. I believe Nismo uses the same pattern as nardi/personal... who I theorize to manufacture Nismo wheels. But I digress.
There is a nismo hub, if you have lots of money, for sale on jspec, but I'm not sure if you want to spend that much money on a steering wheel hub. That's quailty stuff though.
Worst comes to worst, you can pick up a Momo hub and a momo-nardi converter/spacer to put the nismo wheel on.
Good luck, and let us/me know if you have any more questions!

I'm sure if you search on the net, you would be able to find an HKB hub. They are relatively cheap ($15 in Japan) and are made pretty good. I've never had a problem with them and I've used them on Toyota's and Nissan's however, some others haven't had too much luck with them (IE: adey).
Adey, I just sold an HKB hub the other day and when I was looking in the box, I noticed a washer. I guess you can use those.
for momo hubs and hub adaptors, see the following sites:

Yes, I had a horrible time with HKB hubs, mine didn't come with a washer!! (d'oh) So I'm stuck with it until I can find a strong man to pull it off. POS!
