Price Check: JDM Steering wheel`

PHOENIX · 10-10-2006, 11:21 PM

So, out of curiosity sakes, how much you guys willing to pay for one of these, and is there a demand for these?

phzoinkMKII · 10-11-2006, 12:36 AM

I've seen them go between 180-300. I thought about getting one, and still do, but I might just wait until I'm ready to upgrade the interior.

Mister2.2 · 10-11-2006, 07:48 AM

What years?

puertorican.mr2 · 10-11-2006, 08:58 AM

I want to get a sterring wheel that looks more racing with airbags.

phzoinkMKII · 10-11-2006, 10:36 AM

I think that is in the 98+ year models if i'm not mistaken.

I could be wrong, but I thought the 98+ are the red stitching ones that look like the one in IS300/Altezza.

Could be, I just know that those style wheels came in the later years

canadam · 10-11-2006, 10:57 AM

These wheels were available back in '90.

phzoinkMKII · 10-11-2006, 11:08 AM

In the US?

canadam · 10-11-2006, 11:48 AM

No, in the motherland. These are hard to come by stateside for the most part.

phzoinkMKII · 10-11-2006, 01:24 PM

Ok, I've only ever seen them advertised as late 90's parts. My mistake

nbvolks · 03-02-2007, 10:03 PM

You guys need to be more specific. "JDM steering wheel" is a whole host of wheels. First you have the non-airbag ones, then you have the ones with airbags which were one type from 90-93, then another type from 94-97 and then yet another type from 98-99.

The three point red stitched kind is the 98-99 style. And if you were selling just the wheel itself I wouldn't pay more than 50 bucks as you can get these off of US market Corolla S models. Now if you were selling it with an airbag (the proper one like the 98-99 MR2 had, not the perforated leather style seen in the US post 2000) then I'd say you'd be in the 150-200 range. The airbag can also be sourced domestically from 98-99 Rav4s and 98-99 Celicas.

How much can you get one for Dave?

PHOENIX · 01-06-2008, 05:58 AM

the 98+ wheels are retarded expensive, but the early gen 1, 3 spoke ones are pretty cheap.

Ben · 01-06-2008, 02:03 PM

How about TRD wheels?

PHOENIX · 01-06-2008, 04:52 PM

^ I haven't looked too much into them. I hate looking at wheels on the yahoo auctions Japan because 90% of the time, they are selling them in sets of 2, not 4. Not sure why this is.

That, and i think shipping them would be outrageous. If you find a set though, ill hold on to them until i move back to the states in November and all you will have to do is pay shipping from Oregon to wherever, not Japan to the states.

I think he means the TRD airbag wheel. I've been meaning to ask you about them also.
