Hi all, how many of you have passed sva with an aftermarket steering wheel? i have a chance to buy this momo wheel, it has a centre pad so should pass on radius but i read in the manual about being type approved?? anyway heres a piccy of what it looks like, id rather a sparco suede one but this one should do.

thanks

rob

I don't know about the type approval but that looks a lot like my Momo wheel. Only I dont have the pad. Any chance you'd hire it to me in the spring?

mine passed with an momo wheel

steve if i buy the wheel you can use the pad. all depends on when my sva is, im trying my best to get most done as i got a bit of spare time atm. but cant see why not its not as if we will have an sva on the same day now?!?!

oh ye its a 11" wheel i think but not sure if its a 3 or 6 stud fitting?

Well that would be very grand. My wheel is also 11" so that is handy. I would recommend buying it as it is beautiful.
I am a little unsure of my SVA date as well as I have loads of little things to do, but have got the engine running using a home built megasquirt and spark. I think the rest will be plain sailing. Must post some pictures some day.

ye you should, i got a few things to get done, but i always find more to do, its never ending!

Mine passed with a Momo wheel plus pad. Incidentally the import Miata (MX5) has a pad fitted to their steering wheels, presumably to get past some sort of inspection. I just cable tied one of these in place and Mr SVA loved it.

Mine passed with SWM steering wheel (often supplied with Snap off kits). As it wasnt type approved it was checked for radii and i had to fit collapsable boss too.
