Fanatec CSR with Playseat Evo?

[digitalic]

I currently have a logitech g27 with my playseat eve and plan on getting the fanatic car wheel, with shifter and pedals. Before I do, I just wanted to confirm that the fanatec car wheel, shifter and paddles will all work with my playseat evolution?

Also what's the main difference between the Fanatec CSR and the CSR Elite besides the looks? Does the elite version offer anything better over the regular version?

How much is the h-gate shifter for the fanatic car? I can't seem to find that anywhere.

Not sure about the Playseat and CSR compatibility.

As for the difference between CSR and CSR Elite (wheel I am assuming) here is a comparison chart-http://www.fanatec.de/html/pw_overview.htm

*Also, I believe both wheels offer compatibility with the G27 pedals, so you might be able to save some $ there.

H-shifter for the fanatec car? Not sure I see it anymore, maybe they are sold out, perhaps someone else could offer some info.

Good luck with your purchase, I recently picked up the CSR wheel along with the CSR Elite pedals and enjoy them very much. Really only complaint I have in regards to the Standard CSR wheel is the steering wheel itself, the 9 and 3 positions are good but the upper section of the wheel is plastic and feels cheap. Not a deal breaker as I wrapped mine with black Co-ban and I never place my hands there anyway so it is not a huge deal, just an observation.

You will have to pick up an adapter for the shifter (or make your own). Everything else fits well. Plan on hard mounting the wheel onto the Playseat though. The "clamps" are trash.

Can you tell me where I can find the adapter at to make it fit with my playseat? Also how do you hard mount the wheel?

Does Forza 4 support the clutch and H pattern gear shifter?

 

[MuchoJimbo]

Can't answer your first question but yes, Forza supports clutch and H pattern.

Okay what about the CSR Elite pedals, will those bolt on directly to my playseat or do I have to find some sort of adapter?

 

[MuchoJimbo]

I can't answer that as I don't have a playseat. If you go here http://www.fanatec.de/html/index.php?id=31155&lang= you can see the template for drilling, but like I said I have never seen a playseat up close so I do not know of any adapters or modifications that would solve your issue/question, sorry!

I have a Playseat Evo and CSR (Standard Wheel) and it works just fine.

However, be sure you follow the included hole drilling template that came with the wheel exactly. The holes you drill are Off Center on purpose! Don't do what I did and center the holes, then the wheel will be off to the left/right

Just cut the holes out of the template and take a sharpie/marker to mark where to drill. I don't recall what size I used, but I only have a basic hand driller so I started with a small size and slowly increased the size by swerving the drill around in a circle.

Good Luck!
