Hi

So ive been looking at some quick release steering systems but im unsure what to buy.

Ive had a quote for a BG quick release with a hub to fit my mini for £145.

I also like the NRG 2.5 gen. But i dont know what hub will go with that to fit on my austin 1985 mini.
They also do a quick lock. Which is nice.

I have a BG (assuming your BG is the same as mine-Brown and Geeson). I can't fault it, also you can buy direct and their service is superb. I have another from Merlin Motorsport but that is a weld on one and nowhere near the quality of the B&G despite being the same money.

Ok cool.

What boss do i need?
I dont want a fat one as it will make the steering wheel up to my face.

I use a Momo one as it they do a few sizes, I think mine was 100mm deep 80mm PCD IIRC. I had to use a drop bracket on the column to get the wheel in the right place.

No, I have a sparco one, any with the right PCD will do. With an adapter plate other common ones like Mountney and moto lita fit as well.
