![]() 1.5″ in increased offset is actually quite a lot. The steering wheel feels much closer to me than I expected. If you switch out your stock Miata steering wheel, whether you’re using a converter or not, you’re more than likely going to have to fine tune your tie-rods to center your steering wheel.Ģ. I’ve concluded it just comes with the territory. I’m still going to have to adjust the tie-rods to center the thing. I couldn’t get the steering wheel perfectly straight using this setup, but it is much closer to center now. Given I insist on the MOMO hub and not the NRG short hub, the steering wheel is slightly closer to me than if I were using the NRG QR 2.0/NRG Short Hub setup.Īfter installing the NRG QR, which took much longer than it should’ve – not the quick-release’s fault but rather that I had to remove the MOMO hub with an improv puller and it took me forever – I noted a few things.ġ. The NRG Quick-Release is 2.5″ thick, so it would put the steering wheel another 1.5″ towards me. I just might be able to get the wheel centered using that and not have to fiddle too much with the tie rods. I would have to center it by adjusting the tie rods under the car.īefore I went ahead and did that I decided to remove the spacer and give the NRG steering Quick-Release for Miata a shot. However, given the spacer is a MOMO to NARDI converter, it put the wheel slightly off center because if the offset bolt pattern. My offset setup was 2.25″ hub + 1″ spacer converter + 2″ steering wheel = 5.25″ (stock is 5″). Long story short, I was running a 1″ spacer on a MOMO hub for Miata to get the steering wheel a bit closer to me for a more sporty driving position. The part number for this version and color combo is SRK-200BK. NRG might make a different hub-end bolt pattern but I’m not sure. That side only had one bolt pattern, so be sure to double check for fit. The hub side of the QR worked perfectly with my MOMO hub. The steering wheel side of the quick release works with both MOMO and Nardi bolt patterns. So long as you have a hub boss that will fit the bolt pattern. The quick release is a bit more of a universal part. In the title I say, “NRG Quick Release for Miata.” But generally, it’s the hub that needs to fit the Miata and not the QR itself. Finally, I decided to put my part snobbery aside and go with the NRG Innovations unit. Thing is, the Works-Bell QR is about 3 times the price of the NRG QR 2.0 and I somehow always found better ways to spend my money. I had held out for a while as I really wanted a JDM Works-Bell quick release. It’s the simple black version QR with titanium rim. I recently acquired a NRG Quick-Release 2.0 for the RallyWays Miata. The NRG QR 2.0 is installed between a MOMO hub for Miata and a Nardi Deep Corn 330mm steering wheel. ![]() Gen 3.Here we look at using a NRG Quick Release 2.0 on the RallyWays Miata.Gen 2.0 NRG Quick Release Steering Wheel Kit.Perfect for race applications where the use of gloves are required. Features a colored body with a Neochrome ring for added style and look to any vehicle. This allows much easier release for the steering wheel by providing added leverage and grip onto the pull ring.

Made from high-quality aircraft aluminum and/or powder-coated stainless steel for maximum durability, these units are meant to last. These new units feature many options that conventional ball-lock quick release systems do not offer including specially designed raised sections to prevent the hub from stretching, a self-locking mechanism for ease of use and safety, and as always a variety of different colors and color combinations.
