Quick Release vs. Quick-Tilt vs. Both

So I was looking at getting a quick release for my 92 Civic when I came upon a "quick-tilt/quick-flip/pop-up" system. What are the pros and cons of having a quick release (I would be getting a lock if I buy the quick release) and what are the pros and cons of having the other (I saw that the website said the tilt "locks" in place and comes undone with a key)? The quick-tilt system I was looking at is the Works Bell Rapfix quick-tilt system. I also saw someone on another website had installed both the quick release and the quick tilt system on their vehicle. Any pros and cons on that besides the steering wheel sitting stupid close to you? Has anyone had experience with both of the systems and which do you prefer?

Main difference between NRG quick release and Works Bell quick release if any? Anyone had issues with either?

Thanks for your input!

I have used the NRG and love it. Dont forget to get the lock also, or your just wasteing your money. They make a short or long one. The long one makes it hard to reach the turn signals, but if you race it feels good IMO. Why get a tilt addition, your column doesnt have it?

A little lube and you can have a quick release.

I had a quick release for a while. I had to bend the turn signal switch and wiper shit forward so I could reach it. It actually made driving harder. Plus it makes your wheel that much easier to steal lol. Don't buy one!
