Welcome to the forums Maalik, but you need to note a few things:

- your thread title is stupid and mentions nothing regarding what your post is actually about, and what you need to find out.

- this topic has been covered dozens of times before - and you would surely realise your best bet is going to a Skyline inclined mechanic who will quickly tell you what is/isn't ok on your car.

- ALWAYS think VERY carefully about if you really need to start a new topic, or whether it has been covered before - ALWAYS use the search function - you will find most answers you need.

Most importantly, there are a list of topics at the top of the SA forums which will help you with most questions. If you need to borrow a part, post in the 'wanted to borrow' thread. If you want to know about where to buy parts of what workshops to go to, consult the appropriate thread ....

+1 agree with all said

but for the sake of being OT, I have an R32 steering wheel, and I can sell it to ya for $100. PM me if you're keen

-D

buy a new one for that

Welcome Maalik

A new, nissan branded, regency approved steering wheel? cops arse steve.

A cheap jap wheel, yep. But I suppose that you've missed the point of the post, again.

-D

Edit - a fair price, esp when the same wheel is $80 USD overseas - http://www.japandirectjapanese.com/product...t=17&page=1

Just remember that the steering wheels are different between the S1 and S2 R32 despite looking the same. One has the hicas lugs 10-4 the other is 12-6.

This is correct, my wheel is for a zenki GTS-T/GTR... the steering wheels are the same between the gts-t/gtr except the horn button has a R for a GTR and an S for a GTS

Condition of wheel is good. Not great but not crap either.

-D

PS Dion - I wish I knew that 2 years ago before I spent ages doing research and getting nowhere lol

When did S1 and S2 change over?

Dont know what month, but generally speaking 89-90-91 is S1 and 92-93 is S2.

For some useless trivia: S1 and S2 have different headlights, front bumper (GTS), instrument cluster, gear/radio surround, hoodlining material, carpet, seat trim, different cam cover (RB20), different size bolts here and there. Apparantly tail lights are different too, but I cant confirm.

Dohmar, the "S" on the GTSt steering wheel is the Skyline logo.

Thats exactly what I wanted to know - I have a 92 GT-R and need a drivers side headlight, knowing there are different projector types is a great bit of information, cheers :)

GTSt/GTR Have the same headlights EXCEPT, the GTR's have holes for the grille to clip into, so just watch that. Alot of GTSt's already have it anyway such as mine, but something to watch.

Yeah I knew that ;P have seen it before after all

instrument cluster is a bitch of a thing as I bought a carbon backing plate for the gauge cluster only to find the indicator and high beam lights are in different locations, still got that for sale actually if anyone with an s2 is keen ;P

Radio surround has a textured/bumpy feel on the s2's, gloss black on the s1's...

would be good to maybe put a thread together in one of the forums listing any known changes between the zenki and kouki 32's...

-D

zenki and kouki

converted to english please? lol whats that mean

zenki = early era (89-91)

kouki = late era (92-93)

-D

Edit - fyi they use this zenki/kouki terminology with all jap cars, not just nissans - places like RHD japan use zenki/kouki for their product listings (aka boss kits - like dion said, they have hicas sensors in different places so it makes a difference when you're buying aftermarket gear)

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
