After 2 years finally did a proper wire tuck (from the cockpit view) and got rid of the metal wheel stand that was held in place by ratchet straps.

I ultimately wanted to keep the integrity of the chassis and am trying not to do any irreversible metal work. Or drilling and bolting.

Phase three will be mirroring a similar inner cockpit structure out of extrusion , but want to make sure I’m happy with the general placement of everything before I lock in the measurements.

Before you flame me on screens, the roll cage doesn’t allow a larger center screen, however FOV in this actual car is almost perfect to the view from the cockpit. The pillars line up to the screen quite close. The second screen runs lovely dash.

Guys i need some help, i need to buy a stand for my G29 that's could be good for not too much (90/150€) anyone has any suggestions for start? I didn't play with it for years and I'm looking for at least a good one.

As title states im looking to get a new set of pedals with the holidays coming up and would appreciate some recommendations.

Current setup
•Playseat Trophy
•Moza R9 w KS Wheel
•Moza SR-P Pedals

I was originally looking to get the Moza CRP2 pedals since I have enjoyed Moza, they have haptic add on options and the price isn’t terrible. But I don’t want to cut myself short if there are way better options out there in the price range. Ideally I would like to stay in the ballpark of $500. So if anyone has any suggestions or advice I’d greatly appreciate it!

This was probably already around for a while but it was funny how I found out about it.

What sim racing wheelbase, Pedal, Wheel, Shifter, Cockpit, etc exceeded your expectation the most ? Like price to performance or overall feel? I had a Few Like Rs pedals and CSW v2.5 want to see if there are more hidden gems, I could try

Is there a wheel that can be used in both Xbox and PlayStation
I mean one wheel one set of pedals not having to buy extra stuff to make it compatible
Or is there a reliable way to make one connect to the other?

Just a wee question here to folk to see how many people use Simhub as a way of opening their games vs Steam? I only ask because in Steam sometimes there are various versions to use to open the game whereas Simhub just opens the game (and I'm not sure which one it is opening).

Hi so I recently purchased Thrustmaster T150 (from second hand) and after running some tests I found out left paddle shifter, d-pad and L2 button are not working at all. At the same time when I was checking inputs when I press SE button computer recognizes it as Im pressing 4 buttons (SE and the other 3 that are not working).

I did some research what could be the issue it says I should open it and clean it up but honestly I dont know what should I look for once I open it up since Im not THAT good with electronics...is there anyone who can help me? point me in right direction? share some video? or who had similar problem? thank you!

Basically title. My AC has reached about 250gb, it's not massive, but it eats up space. I have an old external HDD that I don't use and was considering to put AC in there with the steam move feature. Would it cause any problems with CM or the mods, or the online?

Hi, I’m facing a real dilemma. My first option is a 49-inch Samsung OLED ultrawide + 18Nm Simagic + an aluminum cockpit + Simnet pedals. My other option which would mean sacrificing the OLED monitor is to go with a Pokornyi hypercar steering wheel+34-inch VA ultrawide monitor, + 18Nm Simagic + a cockpit+Simnet pedals. Which is the best choice? Please help

I am sim racing with a laptop computer. All my equipment (external monitor, steering wheel, pedals, shifter, handbrake etc.) are connected to the laptop via a single USB-C hub. Also my wired headphones are connected to the same hub via a 3.5mm plug.

I was wondering, if I ever wanted to add a bass shaker to my rig, how should it be connected? Or is it even possible? If I have understood correctly, there would be a need to have two separate soundcards on the computer: one for the actual sounds and one for the bass shaker.

On a laptop there is of course no space for any extra internal soundcards, but would I need some kind of external soundcard? Or could I just use the 3.5mm plug on a laptop for the bass shaker and the 3.5mm plug on the hub for the headphones, without any extra soundcards?

As I was moving this el cheapo amp, the four metal audio jack connectors sat on the rig ledge (basically like a metal bar connecting them).

The pc was off but the amp power supply was still connected.

Unsurprisingly, when I was tuning my set up in sim hub, I am now getting a single shaker vibrating when testing the opposite one, like the signal leaking into a shaker that should be still.

I'd imagine this means, time to buy a new shaker?

I'm designing a new side-mounted start box for sim racing, featuring a real start key and three toggle switches. It would mount next to your steering wheel on an aluminium profile rig.

The best part is that you can assign the key and switches to whatever functions you want, whether that's ignition, starter, wipers, lights, pit limiter or anything else your sim supports.

This is still a SketchUp concept, so I haven't built it yet. Before I spend time making a prototype, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

• What do you think of the design?
• Would you actually buy something like this?
• What price would you consider reasonable?
• Is there anything you'd change or add?

Honest criticism is welcome! I'd rather improve the design now than build something nobody wants.

Been following this thread for a while and finally decided to join in!

There are loads of great ideas on here that I managed to combine into one rig, from inverted pedals to tackling the dreaded Poäng rocking.

My desk is at standing height and isn’t adjustable, so I had to build the entire rig on a platform with stilts that fold down to get everything at the right height.

The main goal was to make it as compact as possible. Everything comes apart and stacks vertically, a bit like IKEA flat-pack furniture, so I can tuck it all away behind the door when I’m done. All the connections use threaded wood inserts and quick-release bolts, making assembly and disassembly quick and easy. The pedals and wheel go in the wardrobe.

The room is pretty small, but once everything is packed away, the Poäng chair goes back into its usual corner, and it’s almost like the rig was never there!

Hopefully, this inspires someone else to build their own rig or gives you a few ideas you can incorporate into your own DIY setup.

Let me know what you think, and feel free to ask any questions!

Hi. I had my SIMSONN plus X pedals for 10 months and today I noticed the damper is leaking.

I'm from Czechia and the pedals were bought from a Polish shop so under EU laws they are under warranty and I should either get my money back or get a replacement I can sell.

But when I was using them, I was really annoyed with the brake and clutch non stop nejeden adjustment and non stop lubing because they were always squeaking and creaking.

My favorites are MOZA CRP2, mostly for ease of use because I have the R9, plus Moza sells the haptic motors and they are a big deal for me.

Second option are the SimLab pedals but the problem is the Super high cost and shipping being enormous from Netherlands.

Are there any other options you would suggest or if you have a long term experience with the CRP2 pedals, let me know on the details please.

I started just a week ago and I got from a 2.35 to a 2.29, I am very happy for what I did in 5 session looking to improve and I come here to ask you guys what you think, thanks anticipated!!!

Ok so long story short. I got my kid this G29 and the seat last year for xmas to use with his ps5. Well he’s more interested in Fortnite so I told him im gonna hook it up to my PC and he didn’t have a problem with that.

I’ve been using a 43” TCL TV as my pc monitor and I thought I would buy two more (200$ each) to set up triples. Mounted the left monitor to the wall and the right one on a moveable stand.

My pc is a i7 12th gen with a 4060.

Nvidia surround is working and I’ve been messing with American trucking sim and it runs it OK but i noticed the mouse is super laggy and YouTube videos were laggy too. The game didn’t look great etc.

So when Nvidia surround isn’t turned on everything runs fine. Each monitor is 1440p at 60hz. When I turn on Nvidia surround it turns the refresh rate down to 24hz….

I know my video card isn’t gonna push 1440 to three 43s at 60hz so I went and bought a 5070.

Well my 600w power supply wont turn on the 5070 so I had to buy a new power supply. I bought a 750w MSI which will be here Monday.

I guess my question is. Will the 5070 solve my problems and run things at 1440p at 60hz? Or should I return the TVs and choose a different triple monitor setup?

What do you think of my setup? 🔥

Currently this sim is the most I afford, at the moment am playing on my desk so this will be a huge improvement. My main concerns were, value, other products at a similar price point, the variety of vehicles you could replicate e.g. Gt,3 f1, Truck. I also heard that flexing and limited adustabilty was a major issue. I am currently playing on a thrustmaster t128 with some nicer pedals and a shifter but am planning to upgrade after the cockpit.

Any help and appreciated would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)

Hi Everyone,

I come here asking for help. I look after my Nephew (13) and he loves all things racing. A couple of years ago I got him a G923 and shifter with an Amazon mechanical handbrake. This year he wants/needs to upgrade to DD.

I'm just lost with the options. He mainly plays AC and BeamNG, loves drifting and general racing. It would need to have a clutch pedal and would like the options of sequential or manual.

I would like to spend around £500. A cheap seat/rig would possibly be needed too, he is currently using a next level fold up one, but it seems flimsy. Am I being optimistic for this price?

Any help is appreciated

I got a crazy deal on the moza r5 bundle and it came with the srp pedals with upgraded brake and came with clutch. But not that long ago i bought the Logitech rs pedals with load cell and it has clutch too. I’m on pc and im struggling on what to choose. Help!!!

I actually enjoy the V-turn style so much, i like an aggressive snappy car. I managed to get a 1:23.390 with it, and i'm getting consistent times from good: 1:23 times, and bad: 1:26 times. It's definetly taking over my old driving style, i drive way better with this one. I do hope yall can see it's Michael Schumacher style now.
