[ktcb7]

great write-up , just did this to my 92 ex..i used a nrg 110 hub&quick release and a momo steering wheel all thanks to ph0en1x. .follow it step by step and it worked perfect although i didn't hook up the horn...overall this diy is perfect

very nicy wrte up, i did the dc2 swap , but this has me thinking I to go back my original plan of haveing a momo wheel . so great job every one!

So what if you don't plug in the red dummy connector? What's the connector for? I haven't put in the steering wheel yet....going to soon though. Just wondering what its for and why it needs to be plugged in...

[arrozburner]

so you dont accidentaly set the air bag off...its just another safety thing

[92vig]

So are you supposed to leave it on or take the connector off later?

[arrozburner]

it doesnt matter sens you wont be using it anymore...its still on mine

so turn signals don't work anymore on 9293?
like they don't click back anymore? you have to manualy do it?

This is the writeup i was directed to when i purchased my NRG short hub and quick release by Collin at Wek Sos. http://weaksauceforums.org/viewtopic.php?t=2549

you DO need 2ft of wire to wire up the horn, but like Collin said in the writeup, you can use a metal pin to stay in contact with the back of the hub at all times. Thus eliminating having a buncha wire end up in your lap when turning. Hopefully this helps.


edit: So i did my install the other day and here are a few pics showing the result. BTW yes my turn signals click back with no issues whatsoever and i have a 92 coupe.




i used a small piece of sheet metal and bent it slightly.




as you can see i attached the small piece of sheet metal with a thin screw i had, just screwed it into an existing hole in the plastic casing. Circled in red. The blue circle indicates where the lil white piece sticks out when you use ur turn signals and is actuated by the white circle thing in the middle. As long as that is left in place and not removed or messed with, your turn signals should reset on their own.




you can see the metal piece contacting the brass part of the back of the NRG hub. This makes sure i have power at all times regardless of steering wheel position. thus no extra wire in my lap when i turn the wheel.




As you can see the notch in the back of the hub slides over the tabs that are part of the white circle looking thing which makes it deactivate the turn signals.









sorry for the huge pix. forgot to resize em when i uploaded them. hope this helps someone.

bumpage for pix

[timmy0tool]

bump! did the steering column cover go back on with no problems/trimming etc?

[Nas92]

what size bit do i use to take the bolt off the wheel so i can remove the wheel....is there a different tool i can use to unscrew it.

i got momo steering wheel and i want to put it in my 91 cb7. is it the same way to put it on like yours? but the thing is i dont have air bags in my cb7.

[Oja]

no no no

or if you don't have an air bag like me

soo tempting....


Awesomeness .VS. Cruise Control and Clicky turn signal...


HMMMMMMMMM

no you remove the button from the stock wheel and locate them above the clutch kind of behind the bottom steerign collunm then you can click cruise on and reack and set just a lil wire routing but its fairly easy just installed my new wheel to just got left is the horn wire.

so how different are these write ups compared to a 90-91 without airbags? has anyone done one? there's a sick nardi replica on ebay i'm thinking about picking up....
