Hmm ok. That does look a lot lighter then the momo steering wheel option.

There was a couple of options for woodgrain. The options catalogue in this post has them:

Ahh cool, I hadn't seen that. And I finally can see my suspension is a Nissan option upgrade. Wish I knew what it said about the suspension. Also it's good to see I literally have every option I would have wanted from that book.

Little bit over two weeks to go. Getting excited but very nervous at the same time.

Gathering the stuff ready in two crates ready. Just have to buy oil and filter and im set.

Big thanks to Travis (one of the few non Vtards) who found me the missing bits of trim for my.option momo that someone on here sold me and has not been helpful at all. I think some of you know who it is.

Also looking for the woodgrain door grab trim strips. Would also be keen on a black leather/woodgrain gear shifter to match but not fussed.

Good to hear you found the pieces for your wheel mate.

In Aaron's defence, he's not actually on this forum; nor has he ever been.

When he stripped the car, his father kicked him out of his home, and had the partially dismantled car removed by Simsmetal and immediately destroyed.

I'm not saying you shouldn't feel hard done by; but I can assure you, he had far more important things to worry about than some covers for your steering wheel.

If he'd had the pieces, I believe he would have given them to you.

He is a stand-up guy, and a good friend of mine.

Glad to hear it's getting toward the end, you must be pumped.

Would have been nice of he told me that the covers were missing to begin with. Otherwise i wouldnt have bought it.

I asked him for the VIN or any form of identification of the car so i could goto nissan and get the parts.

Dont get me wrong hes a nice guy the emanage was a complete steal and im happy but the whole steering wheel thing wasnt right.

But hey whats done is done

Yes there are two different colours of "woodgrain" the lighter and more common tan colour and there is a dark chocolate almost black colour which i am yet to see in the flesh.

I rang nissan for all four trims and shifter ans it came to about 900. Got onto amayama and it was 476.

Getting pretty pumped!

The part numbers might be on the back of the hand grabs...

Also If you get a VIN with the optioned parts and put them into epcdata you might find the option.

*EDIT* I had a quick look could only find http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/03-04-05-Infiniti-G35-door-panel-wood-trim-grip-handle-/230775342365

Which I believe is only half of what you need :(. epcdata showed f**k all.

I asked for the model code and VIN of the car the wheel came off with no luck. But im sure many of you have seen that gold 2004 arx that can not be complied om ebay atm. It has a momo wheel, he put a picture up of the build plate and from that i rang Lake macquarie nissan here in newcastle with unable (or to lazy to use google translate) i rang hornsby NIssan and they gave me a rough quote of 900 for all four trims and shifter posted to aus. Was provided with part numbers and went on amayama and got quoted 476 without postage.

But josh the ones you linked us too i found on import monster which are for 47 so they will be getting watched closely.

Ha looks like there are 3 different colours.

I want that colour! If i find a momo in that id do that. It wont stand out like dogs balls like the one i have will. Ohwell.

Maybe get a set of these; it'll draw peoples attention away from the dogs balls.

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
