Default 2013 Z06 Installed a Sparco R383 Wheel, NRG Quick Release and NRG Hub

Just finished installing a AiM MxL Dash+ECU Bridge, Sparco R383 Wheel with NRG Quick release and hub. This wheel is 330mm and the stock Z06 wheel is a ridiculous 380mm ... the stock wheel felt like driving a truck.. this is much better.


Just posting this up for future reference - It is hard to come by a C6 Steering Hub. NRG Just came out with a C6 hub .. it is very well made.

Nicely done.

How much does this change the position of the steering wheel?

Badass, I have an OMP flat bottom wheel and NRG quick release who are waiting for the NRG hub to arrive to get installed. Im glad to see the setup looks so good.
