Madtrace® GEN2 PODIUM LINE Racing Steering Wheel System For TOYOTA/SUBARU GR86/BRZ
Description
The Madtrace® GEN2 PODIUM LINE Racing Steering Wheel System is a motorsport-grade upgrade engineered specifically for the Toyota GR86 and Subaru BRZ (ZN8/ZD8), delivering a level of factory integration and driver control that no other aftermarket steering system can match. As the first system in the industry to combine both CAN bus and LIN bus technologies in a single hub, it communicates flawlessly with your vehicle's factory electronics - no splicing, no wiring headaches, just true plug-and-play functionality. Built from 6061-T6 billet aluminum and precision machined with 5-axis CNC technology, every component is finished in sleek black anodizing for a premium, race-ready look.
The PODIUM LINE unlocks access to over 15 OEM CAN bus functions - including high beam flash, wipers, turn signals, TC adjustment, and RevLEDs shift lights - all controllable from the wheel. With fully programmable button layouts, multi-profile memory, wireless operation, and an optional OLED Driver Information Display, this system transforms your GR86 or BRZ cockpit into a true racing environment. Designed exclusively for off-road, track, racing, and competition use.
Key Features

- 15+ OEM CAN Bus Functions: Control high beam flash, wipers, turn signals, TC adjustment, shift lights, and more - all from the steering wheel.
- MadtraceLAB Software: Fully customizable button layout configured via MadtraceLAB or the optional DID. USB-C port enables seamless firmware updates and future feature expansions.
- 3 Programmable Profile Slots: Store up to three fully customizable button maps and LED color profiles in the hub's internal memory for instant on-the-fly recall.
- RevLEDs CAN Bus Shift Lights: Zero-delay shift lights built into the hub, flashing red at redline for instant visual shifting cues on track.
- 8 Front-Facing Programmable Buttons + Dual Joystick Knobs: Every input is fully remappable, giving drivers complete control over every function from a single interface.
- Optional Dual Magnetic Paddle Shifters: Motorsport-grade 6061-T6 billet aluminum paddles - all four fully programmable, compatible with both MT and AT vehicles.

FAQ
Is this system legal for street use?
No. The Madtrace® GEN2 PODIUM LINE Racing Steering Wheel System is designed exclusively for off-road, track, racing, and competition use. It is not intended or approved for street use. Because it replaces the factory airbag, it poses a safety risk in the event of a collision when used with standard 3-point seat belts. Use of a 6-point racing harness and a roll bar is strongly required for off-road applications. Always consult local laws and regulations before installation.
Does this system work with manual transmission (MT) vehicles?
Yes. The PODIUM LINE is fully compatible with both manual and automatic transmission vehicles. Optional single or dual magnetic paddle shifters can be added to MT vehicles to enable additional programmable functions - for example, upper paddles can be mapped to turn signals while lower paddles handle gear shifts.
What vehicles does this system fit?
This system is compatible with the Toyota GR86 and Subaru BRZ (ZN8/ZD8 chassis), Toyota GR Corolla 2023+, Toyota GR Yaris 2020-2024, and Toyota GR Yaris 2025+. Both Left-Hand Drive (LHD) and Right-Hand Drive (RHD) configurations are available - be sure to select the correct chassis option at checkout.
What is MadtraceLAB and do I need a computer to set it up?
MadtraceLAB is Madtrace's proprietary software used to configure and customize your PODIUM LINE hub - including button layout mapping, LED colors, and profile settings. You connect the hub via the built-in USB-C port to run updates and adjustments. If you add the optional OLED Driver Information Display (DID), you can also make on-the-fly profile and layout changes directly from the wheel without needing a computer.
What is the difference between the PODIUM LINE and the CLUBSPORT LINE?
The PODIUM LINE is the more advanced tier, offering exclusive features like RevLEDs CAN bus shift lights, multi-profile settings with quick switch functionality, advanced race control (ESP OFF, high beam flash, wipers, turn signals), center console functions, and dual paddle shifter compatibility. The CLUBSPORT LINE is a capable entry point with plug-and-play factory function support and an optional single paddle, but it does not include shift lights, profile switching, or the advanced CAN bus race control features found on the PODIUM LINE.
Can I use my own aftermarket steering wheel with this hub system?
Yes. The hub system is available on its own, and optional adapters are available to expand compatibility - including a MOMO Original Horn Cap Adapter and a 6x74mm Nardi Type Steering Wheel Adapter. Several Sparco and MOMO steering wheel options are also available as add-ons directly at the time of purchase.
