momo steering wheel in a 97 legacy
Will a momo steering wheel from a WRX fit in a 97 legacy L?
Allso will the Legacy air bag fit in to the momo wheel, or would i need the WRX one?

Do a search on it...there was a HUGE thread about this a few months back, I don't know what information was ever given out in it but i know that this is exactly what it was about.

If the WRX wheel will fit in a 1st gen, it should fit in a 2nd gen.
Use the WRX air-bag if you must retain one. |

As far as I've been told, it will fit, but you will also need the cruise control lever from the WRX (they're apparently different from the legacy). I'm pretty sure the steering wheel and airbag fit right in just like the stock one does though. I'd also like to do this.

fits great. you just need to dremel the cruise control space if you are using a JDM one. I didn't use a WRX one.

The wheel will fit BUT the 97 and earlier Subarus use a higher power air bag than the 98 and later Subarus. Meaning the new air bag wil not work with the older air bag system. Also the air bags are different enough in size that I could see no way to swap the old bag to the new wheel.

i am sure we could design a signal changer that would not be very big. anyone got the technical specs on the air bag electrical systems?

Could you tell me where you got your Momo wheel (perhaps Subaru part number?).
What model year WRX's have that type of Momo steering wheel? Thanks! |

The only par that needed to be swapped to the new wheel in my 97 GT was the cruise control stalk. ss |

Great, it would have been better for me not to see that wheel. Ignorance is bliss. I figure the wheel from the STi can fit, but I think the wheel you have looks superior. |

are the momo logoed wheels any smaller in diameter or better in feel? sometimes I have trouble swinging my car in a short diameter s curve but of course thats mostly my slow steering rack ratio.

Airbag? We don't need no stinkin airbags!
Just a big waste of money and weight! They are only up to 14% effective anyways. Well, some low number like that. |

Then, logically, you won't need the cruise control lever from a WRX.
And did you notice you bumped a thread from 15-1/2 years ago? And quoted a post by a guy who hasn't been on the forum in 4 years? Using the search function, but don't expect replies from someone who posted so long ago - not many of us are still around. |
