Anyone have a picture and prices of their favorite steering wheel. If you are from the PNW , where can one go to see new one to compare looks? Do all aftermarket steering wheels require the hub kit?
Thanks,
Tom Port Orchard, Wa.

MoMo prototipo

MOMO Monte Carlo is readily available and cheap. All of the 13(ish)" wheels will block the gauges to some degree. I don't know of any aftermarket wheels that won't require a matching hub.

For a 914, kinda aftermarket.

Posted by: anthony Jul 10 2006, 01:54 PM

I like the Momo race. I've been thinking that a silver one would go well with my silver car. I also like the Course, Competition, and Tuner which all look somewhat similar.

I also love the 930S wheel in my 911. I wish one could easily be fit to a 914.

Finally, the early 911 horn pad actually looks great on my stock 914 wheel. Too bad the diameter wasn't a little smaller.

That's pretty nice looking!!!

Posted by: WRX914 Jul 10 2006, 02:16 PM

Momo Race installed.

I opted for the longer adaptor. I could see a potential issue when AX'ing accidentially hitting the wiper and turnsignal arms.

It probably depends on what your personal taste is and what you are trying to do with your car. Personally, I like to keep mine looking period correct, so I went with the Momo Prototipo

i loovvvve the 930 wheel. Too bad i can't find one for less than 3 bills.
ONe of our local guys had one in his car. That car now lives in TN.

Racemark Raid, period correct, used by the Daytona winning 914/6 GT. . . .

$110 on ebay. Tenzo from the ricer crowd adapted to a more civilized use. All leather and aluminum.

Porsche horn button was extra. Fits momo adapters perfectly.

Have a nardi (?) wheel in my '73.

Posted by: dinomium Jul 10 2006, 10:28 PM

I have a MOMO top power in mine that I really love. You can even touch it if you like!
HA!
I am just around the shipyard from you.

Posted by: turboman808 Jul 10 2006, 10:50 PM

Nardi has become really popular with the japanese car crowd. Hell I got a nardi in my civic

Posted by: Lou W Jul 10 2006, 10:59 PM

Im concerned about not being able to see the gauges with this one, so I'll probably go with the Momo Race.

I like my Momo Prototipo, silver spokes, made in 1976, so just the right age for my '74 car. It blocks the outside part of the spedo and fuel gauge. The top of the tach is blocked from view by the hood on the dash, not by the steering wheel.

I have a Momo Jackie Stewart model. Bought this wheel in 1985.

Mine is a Personal,made by Nardi.

By coincidence,its the same wheel that's on the Brumos 914-Gt that's sitting in their showroom in Jacksonville.

Thanks for all of the reply's. Lots of nice steering wheels attached to some nice 914's. Had a Racemark on my first one (70 -1.7) and the car was much more fun to drive with it.

MOMO Prototipo. Black and black. It was on ebay under "Truck parts" so I got it for $22.00. I guess he did not know (or cared) what he had. I had to get a 914 hub and it did not have a horn button, but what the hey. Can anybody tell me where I can get a Porsche horn button?? MSG L

Posted by: Dr Evil Jul 11 2006, 12:29 PM

The horn button is NLA from Momo. They stopped making them a long while ago. I got mine on Ebay about 2 years ago.

Posted by: msglaigaie Jul 12 2006, 12:34 AM

Well damn. I found a momo button in the shop, I guess i will put that on till I can find a Porsche button. It just looks funny without any button at all. Thanks, I will keep an eye peeled. MSG L

I have a MOMO "Porsche Design" wheel that I bought back in the early 1980s it's been in 3 or 4 cars that I have owned since then.....great feeling wheel.

I'm partial to LeCarra Wheels. I even have their quick disconnect adapter in my race car.
Thy're a bit more expensive than the others but worth every penny IMO.

I found one I like on eBay a few years ago. It's a Ken (asian made) Prototipo knock off. Silver aluminum spokes and black laquered wood rather than leather. (It's supposedly mahogony). Looks nice with the black interior.

I had to buy a MOMO adapter and MOMO horn button. (Found the MOMO Porsche button for $40)

Posted by: rickyhgarcia Jul 13 2006, 12:27 PM

Momo Prototipo...silver spokes.

Bought it at:

LTB Motorsports
772 Washburn Road #A
Melbourne, FL 32934

Also bought the 914 hub adapter...Momo P/N 8002
