The adapter will have splines in it that will slide over the steering shaft. A large nut will hold that in place. The adpater will then have a bolt pattern on the top to allow your wheel to bolt to it.1990 (LUCIFER 2.0) fully built BP+T with E153, Fueltech FT500, traction control with hopes of 600hp (i drank to much of the KOOL-AID)

This is how a steering wheel and hub adapter work:
Note that the quick release is totally optional.
Different cars have different spline counts and diameters. It's often different per brand. A Chevy wheel will not bolt into a Ford. A boat steering wheel spline is unlikely to match a Mazda spline count.
You will need to go on Ebay (or wherever) and find a Mazda Miata or Mazda RX7 steering wheel Hub (preferably from a reputable brand, like Momo/NRG/Sparco). Don't cheap out, this is a safety item.Will Samet
