Can't find it anywhere for the s14. There are multiple other hubs though.

a s13 hub will fit the s14. only thing is your SRS light will be on and your SRS will not work but you can rewire a harness to make it continue to work

yes, s13/s14 hub is interchangeable
air bag light cancel is the only difference in brands, well, besides construction. hkb is solid piece of metal while momo is prongs that will collapse on impact. i personally like driving with the momo better and i've tried both. not to mention hkb is the worst hub to take OFF, that thing gets STUCK on there.
momo is cheapest (~$50) and is more readily available. hkb is higher in price since its comes with air bag cancel and is from japan.

does the momo hub make the steering wheel closer to you with a quick release??? cous i want my steering wheel to come out as close to stock as possible. does anyone know how to disable the srs light from showing??? i guess i can just pull out my gauge cluster and pull out the bulb for srs...

Would you guys happen to have the specs on the resistor that comes w/ the S14 HKB hub? Its seems stupid to pay extra for a simple resistor that you can buy for 5 cents at an electronics store.

momo and hkb are the same size, give or take couple mm
if u want the steering wheel close to stock, getting a signal quick release will not do the trick, thats gonna be quite close to you.
besides getting an extra short hub (which is pricey, $100+), you could get an FET quick release. i hate to be a shameless plugger, but i got them very good in stock and only an inch thick, so close to stock.
pm me for more info

whats the pros of having the steering wheel closer to you?

like stated before, if you put a hub on the SRS light will go on and your passenger airbag will NOT work. with the resistor, it will fool the ECU into thinking the SRS is still there which still lets your passenger bag work.
it depends on which QR you plan to get. if you want it as close to stock as possible get teh FET QR. if you dont want ot pay that much, you can get the SPLASH short hub and get an NRG which will make it a lil closer to you than stock.

i read your write up multiple times before i posted. not once did you mention on your write up how the steering wheel position was affected. as other people stated in this thread that in order to keep your steering wheel close to stock you need to use the hkb splash hub with quick release or use a momo/hkb hub and attatch a fet quick release to obtain near stock position...

hkb boss hub w/ no QR= farther away from driver than stock
w/ QR = two inches closer, give or take

I forgot to measure the resistance of the S14 airbag when I had my steering wheel off, it ended up being a lot cooler to blow it up... that thing shot at least 30 feet into the air.

racing dimension suck.. they charge hella lot for shipping. they were mad because they made this one auction on ebay and i wont it cheap, then they said they need to charge for shipping sure thinking it only 7buck or so because that what it states at their site, then they charge me 20 to ship it. i was about to order more stuff from them, but forget it. they suck at customer service. i even pointed it out to them. they should be no difference and they said said too bad.
my opinion, bunch of ass there.

I bought this hub from Racing Dimension and ordered it UPS ground because my mail has been getting stolen. They shipped it USPS and my mail got stolen. I emailed them about 6 times, and it's been about a week and they haven't even replied to one email (It says they respond in 1-3 days on their website, if I recall correctly.) Very sad company.
