This has got to be the hottest option for steering wheel upgrade for the 6gc..
i just don't like aftermarket interior parts.. kinda loses the toyota integrity of it all.. kind of a useless posts but i'm sure most of you would agree how sexy this thing would look in our cars.. ![]() ![]() ![]() so i've heard these are only available on jdm mkiv supras of the latest years... but only very VERY few had them. man, i want this! and it's not even listed in my parts catalog... grrr ![]() This post has been edited by azian_advanced: Sep 15, 2006 - 2:18 AM -------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

~$500-$600 for one and not sure if the airbag will work. bolts right on though.

The carbon fiber part could be easily customize here in Hong Kong, in fact those shop would send to China and not expensive.

the stock 4-spoke is marginal. its a good size, but the spokes rob maneuvering and hand position spaces, not to mention the plastic-like finish is far from grippy or comfy.
my buddy just got a really nice 3-spoke momo with those wonderful little "wings" at 10 and 2, and it's a dream to use. i just don't want to give up my cruise control, and with the big column, most aftermarket wheels with a momo or nardi style hub look sorta goofy, imo. this cf supra wheel, though......sexy. -------------------- ![]() do you know who i am, mr. worley? |

he's probably referring to the center part of it... like the airbag.
the 3-spoke steering wheels on cars without the airbags are not good.. they're too slippery and to fat. might sell it to whoever is interested. i like my 4-spoke one (with air bags) cuz they're leather wrapped, easy to grip and grip well. but this 3-spoke one surely is better than my current one This post has been edited by azian_advanced: Sep 15, 2006 - 11:25 AM -------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

that's what the one on that site said, but if you go to trd.com and look for the part number I posted, the same desing of air bag was use on some Rav4 and tacoma truck as trd opcion so the air bag work on those.

^^ i've seen those TRD ones around... and i'm not really liking the colors too much. and even if it were black, ehh.. still looks a little too chunky.. i'd rather have something near-stock looking. don't wanna over-do the interior...

Batman, do you know if the wheel that you posted in the link would be able to work properly in a 94 gt (airbag and all)?

Mine looks just like that except no carbon fiber in the center. It's not at all chunky and way better suited to agressive driving then my '95 GT's 4 spoke one. Looks just like the TRD one too except Toyota center and the red is black on mine.
