momo corse

for most car enthusiast, the first thing they will change would be the steering wheel... a smaller steering wheel does affect how you handle the car... less radius means less steering play needed... minor steering corrections can be done very quickly... on some cars it also does improve ergonomics of the car... for example your leg is too long and the steering wheel restricts the leg movement to heel-n-toe... a smaller steering gives more room for your leg to move around...

besides the diameter of the steering wheel, thickness of the handle also matters... in general, a thicker steering wheel gives better grip compare to smaller thin steering wheel...

for many years i did not realize why the need of aftermarket steering wheel... i've done countless touge and daily drive, i've already accustomed myself to the OEM steering wheel... only recently when i've got the mood to beautify the interior of my car only i realize how differently it feels...

there are a few choices i short-listed... momo corse or nardi torino... due to some unknown reason, price for momo corse steering dropped a little... most of them cost approximately Rm350 each... i got this for only Rm200...



original MOMO??...





of course, in order for an aftermarket steering wheel to fit u will need a boss kit... it is basically an adapter which connects the steering shaft with your steering wheel... does an expensive boss kit makes any difference compare with a cheap one??... with the price difference almost thrice as much, i settled for the latter one... here u go, a Rm30 boss kit from any local car accessory shop...





securing it to the steering wheel via 6 Allen key bolts...





and securing it to the steering shaft...





i also bought this original momo corse horn button separately...
