What started out as a living room simrig for Gran Turismo 3 on PS3 now transformed into a slightly modified wheel stand for R3E and ACC on PC.
I got some ideas for the modifications from seeing other rigs on RaceDepartment, hence I thought of sharing my take on the subject, Maybe this gives others ideas to build their Simrig.
Since we do not have space for a full simrig I designed the wheel stand to be hooked to our living room sofa to recreate a simrig feeling. Thanks to the bracing the wheel stand is rock solid now with no flex (THX
@johndough247 for the pointers!)
I recently got rid of the TH8A shifter and sadly cannot use my EDTracker wireless for ACC at the moment.
My setup:
- GT Omega wheel stand (+PTFE threaded gliders)
- Mild steel DIY bracing and aluminium "Sofa hook"
- Thrustmaster TM500 (- shifters)
- Thrustmaster Sparco 383mod wheel
- Mardo Media sping set for T3PA Pro pedals
- AMStudio Nextion 4.3" Dash
- Homecinema / Simracing PC
