Good choice! I suffer from that with the H4's I got. Think I'm going to go back to the Halogens and see what happens. Anyway, here's a crappy pic of my Bride wheel. Too bright to see it good, and yeah, my speedo needle fell off a couple of days ago. Looks like I'll be yanking the cluster yet again.. *sigh*

That's a good lookin' steering wheel! I'm still on the fence with what to go with. I like the Bride wheel a lot, but I've always had MOMO in the past and it's a tough decision to go away from what I know. I do think that the Bride wheel suits the car a little better for some reason, and it certainly cost less than a MOMO so I'm sure I'll probably end up going that route. In other words, I just typed all this for nothing

Trust me Rod, the Bride wheel looks sweet! And is a lot cheaper even after buying the MOMO kit for it. It would look awesome in your Z, buy it man. You won't be dissapointed!

I have recently done the white overlays on the dash and the needle was off, so I was pegging at about 70 or so. Well, I pegged it just enough recently that it just kinda "fell" off...

So, I'm seeing the Bride wheels on ebay for fairly cheap, but I didn't see one that specifically said it had the adaptor for the 280ZX. Am I missing something. I know the hub on the 300ZX is a different diameter and I saw them listed... But, that won't fit. What's the deal?

Here you go Rod, this is the 280zx MOMO adapter kit auction, going on right now. Free shipping, and the same person Carl and I got our kits from. And we purchased the color of Bride wheel we wanted. Mine Blue and silver, and Carl's Black and silver. Which I am sure is the one you want. Hope this helps you out, and let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

Wow, so you guys paid more for the adaptor than you did for the wheel itself. Sounds a little backwards. At least if I did that, it would solve my whole MOMO VS. Bride dilema.... I would have BOTH!!!

But now that would be two-timing, and cheaters never prosper

Nope... I really haven't done anything with the 280 for a while now as far as visual upgrades go. I have to do some much needed mechanical work on it still. There's a lot of little stuff that neglected over the last couple years that is really starting to become a problem. I also just sprung a MASSIVE power steering leak (Hose), rear diff bushing = toast, U-Joints = wasted, tranny is making funny sounds that I don't like... just need to to some maintenance stuff before I spend more beauty money...
