JDM steering wheel

[tysamigo]

it can be done, I've done it, but you need the 'contact ring' as well.
They are different between JDM & US models & can only be bought with the combination switches/indicator arms etc.
Cost:
JDM Momo wheel £511/$1000, airbag £402/$800, comb switch+ring £173/$340
US wheel £317/$600 (red/black only available), airbag £402/$800, comb switch+ring £?/$? still waiting for a price but probably the same as above.
UK prices + 17.5% tax.
Hope this helps even if to decide that it's cost prohibitive.
I swapped between VXs so didn't need to buy any parts.

So basically one can swap out the steering wheel with the Momo one IF you can find it right? Who sells this stuff?

So it would be bsaically about $1140 for the parts and then my time for installation, is that right?

Thanks

$1140+$1000 for the Momo wheel yes.
Isuzu Japan can supply the parts, it's whether your Isuzu dealers in the US will order JDM parts?
Try asking Merlin at St Charles Isuzu if not you could try an English Isuzu dealer but it does get complicated.
If for export you probably won't have to pay the 17.5% tax but obviously the extra shipping costs & any US import tax on top.
I'm looking fo secondhand parts, both JDM & US, but they are difficult to find.

I'd see if you can find a wrecked VX in japan where the owner would be willing to ship the steering wheel...

Also consider that the owner of a JDM VX might be interested in a USDM steering wheel as much as you're interested in theirs... maybe see if you can find someone who is willing to just trade wheels.

JDM Leather steering wheel for my 240sx is $800 without the air bag plus another $600 for the airbag portion + $300 for the ring ...

but I simply found someone who had imported a wrecked JDM version for parts and bought the wheel with airbag and ring adapter for $120 shipped... the leather is warn in one spot but it's looking like I can get it professionally reconditioned through a company called "fibrenew" for about $60-$80.... $200 total for a complete like new leather JDM wheel isn't too bad at all...
