Default Nardi Steering Wheel questions

I recently purchased an aftermarket steering wheel, a Nardi Classic 330mm steering wheel. Now my questions are for those of you who have replaced their stock steering wheel:
1. What adapter (momo, sparco, etc.) would you recommend?
2. Works Bell Rapfix quick release steering wheel hub, have any of you heard of or are using this hub? If so are they pretty solid, easy to snap in and remove, do they ever get misaligned?
Any information would be great, thanks in advance.

since you want to go quick release you would have to get the short hub. NRG and SPLASH has them. Works Bell is top of the line stuff from japan. You can get teh short hub from more-japan.com. if you use the regular size hub and a quick release you're going to have the wheel in your lap.

Luv da lex, thanks for the great information. I've looked into it and ended up purchasing the short boss, and the works bell quick release. Hopefully it doesn't end up on my lap .

I've been using the works bell short hub and quick release for a little while now, and I couldn't be any happier with it. Here's a pic in case u wanted to see what it looks like.

Well when I was trying to purchase the short hub (more-japan.com) and the quick release (nengun.com) they were pretty pricey. The short hub was from more-japan and went for about $184.00, but they refunded my money because they did not have any in stock and were unsure if they were getting any soon. The quick release from nengun is $261.89 with shipping, international shipping.
I need to find another store that would sell these short hubs. If anyone knows where else I can get one, please let me know.

Nardi hub won't work with a Works Bell Quick Release. The Rapfix II only fits on Momo/Sparco pattern hubs, which is different than Nardi/Personal pattern
