My G35. I gave my kids some paint markers and had them draw on that plastic shroud around the boot. And the boot is Bojangles fabric...cuz I love Bojangles...even though we don't have one here.

Looking for "depth" specific measurements for Nardi 350mm deep dish, 360mm classic, and the 330mm deep corn.

I know Santi posted a comparison pic but I want to know solid numbers. I also know that David posted his pics of his QR & deep dish set up but I don't remember him using a standard hub...

With a standard Works Bell, my old 360mm was about 8" from the hazard button. The reason I'm asking for measurements is because I'll be going with a regular 2.0 quick release and I want to see if I can get away without the use of a short hub. With that said, I wanted to know if I could go with a deep dish wheel without it being too close.

If anybody is running a deep wheel, standard hub, and a non-slim QR, please feel free to chime in and post pics! Thanks.

I'm 5'9 but my legs are a tad long, and I don't have a bucket seat installed on my car at the moment. So I need a set up that's close but not too close.

For me, to sit close is fine for my arms but my legs are close. And if I were to accommodate for my legs, turning the wheel isn't close enough for me to have complete control.

sounds like your in the same boat as me, well I'm running a bucket so it may be a bit different but on my seat I'm sitting as far back as I can since I have a harness bar I can only sit as far back as the b pillar my legs are perfect the steering wheel is just about right could be a little closer but it's fine.

Idk how you guys have the wheels that close. I'm 5'10" and I had a Momo hub with a regular QR and 330mm Neo Grinta (almost same depth as 330mm deep corn) and it was WAY too close... Swapped the hub out for a short hub and it's perfect. I have a ViosIII as well.

I think it all depends on where you like your leg position at. The clutch is set to the top of the pedal, so I sit rather far back since I don't need to push the clutch to the floor. The lower part of my toes hit the pedals.

Yeah, I guess it does have to do with how your clutch is set up, and also leg/arm length. Carry on.

Momo hubs are really long though--the longest hubs I've seen without the use of spacers. So that plus a regular QR is going to be really close, lol.

Anybody got pics with measurements? From the edge of the wheel to the hazard specific.

I think that would be helpful to a lot of people besides me. Should include entire set up description.

I'll get back to you shortly with some pictures; I'm 5'9 with a 31" inseam. Currently have a Cobra Imola bucket, WB standard hub, NRG slim QR, Sparco 215 350mm wheel with 90mm dish. Rocked the same set-up with s14 base seats, and I sit just close enough to manipulate the pedals and have a comfortable (90-130*ish bend in at my elbow) grip at 9-and-3 respectively.

No I'm only 6', I just prefer my steering wheel to be as close to the stock position as possible. I like to sit like a 90 year old man when I drive. Arms stretched out and sitting back all hunched over waiting to be diagnosed with Scoliosis.

LOL @ wheel position discussion.

I have a full size Momo hub with a 30mm stack spacer plus a full size QR and I still want it 10-15mm closer. I like go karts. EDIT: I'm 6'2, 200.

Don't know if I posted this here yet.



Scott at GripRoyal is a really cool dude to deal with on Custom Stuff. Contacted him in ~October/November with the initial wheel concept, then ironed out little details like the exact color code and stuff over the next 2 months or so, then got the wheel a while back. Its so cool and well worth the wait, but what was most awesome is that Scott was all about getting the wheel perfect regardless of how much time or hassle it was.

Random interior related question, what's really rad for S14 carpet? My OEM carpet is grey and stained so I'm looking for black/dark grey... Really not impressed with Stock Interior's stuff after getting their floor mats...
