My original plan was to use a sparco Ring wheel in an attempt to free up more knee room to allow my 6'6" arse to fit in the car... but the VGS wheel would keep the factory look going... Has anyone successfully done this swap? or know what it entails?

My info may be old, but I don't think there is a compatible hub, you would have to have one custom machined

I know of two here in the US. Both required having some machine work done to make them fit.

It sure looks good doesn't it?

Have you looked into a new seat. They can lower you a couple inches I think and make a big difference. I am toying with the idea right now for my 6'2 frame. Cant believe youre 6'6. Maybe just turn the S into a one seater and put one leg on each side of the cabin

it'll be easier and cheaper to get the Momo to work then the VGS. It's possible but really why if there is a easier option available? As for the factory look, IMO, it's like putting a type R badge on a car that isn't a type R.

edit: Ok, I rethought this, and I guess keeping the airbag would make this a viable solution.
