yes you do. The brake has brake like resistance. the others are like very light car pedals. Mine is doing fine so far.Barnes93cb wrote: ↑Tue Nov 07, 2017 2:03 pm Do I need this over my amazing thrustmasters ferrari wheel?

I wouldnt mind a clutch pedal and feedback on the steering wheel.
How do these hold up to abuse? Do the pedals have resistance? Can I get a shifter to work with this setup?

I bought one during that deal. Now I have to figure out how to build a cockpit. Off the shelf things are stupid expensive. I want to make something out of wood like Troy, but that can somehow easily dismantle for storage.Big Brain Bradley wrote: ↑Tue Nov 07, 2017 12:43 pmthats a gents, buy if youve been on the fence.troyguitar wrote: ↑Tue Nov 07, 2017 12:20 pm Logitech stuff on sale today only:

Both ps4 and xbox versions (each also work on pc).
Thoughts?

Challenge's are like $300 when you factor in shipping. For a folding chair. if the value is there, but it's absolutely the right answer. I have a bunch of scrap 2x4's I could use...and if I need more, it'd be WAY less than $300.

That's what I have, it was like $208 for a pair, one is on the Sim cockpit and the other is going in the Vibe. I'll dig up the link later.Detroit wrote:I want to find one with cloth middle and vinyl bolsters.

Thanks...hopefully they sell a single.

He looked into it, but I don't think it fit. Plus, headroom is a concern for me. I can't have anything that increases headroom

They fit if you switch to C6 belts and cut some of the plastic trim around the bottom belt bolt (where the C5 belt has a second reel, the C6 has only a bolt). Keeping sliders and cutting the brackets down to minimum height gives about a half inch more headroom than stock.
I got all of the parts and figured it out, but sold the car before actually finishing it. Eventually I'll sell the kit to someone.
This is now a thread.

So this is the seat that I have, looks like the same thing as what you posted but with vinyl sides:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Sport-Style-JD ... wk&vxp=mtr
It fits me great, which means there's a good chance it's too small for you - the thigh bolsters are especially aggressive. I'd probably get one of these if I were you:

You'll have more money to buy racecar shit too if you stop spending it on food.
