SST states
"Ready out of the box with complete plug 'n play USB windows compatibility"

So it's only USB , only for PC based games. Unless PD enables this shifter.. write a letter for PD to enable it, since it's plug in and play, they should.

Thanks for your reply.
Write a letter to pd? email addres needed ,can u help me?

It would be also better if SST send them couple of shifters with letter why they should include their shifters in GT5 game..

So I think first write a letter to SST telling them that you would love to buy their product if they support it with Gran Turismo 5 game, and write that their shifters will be more popular if GT enables it.
Me Personally, I would buy the SST shifter if GT5 supports it.

It could or could not work.. so it never hurts to try it out.




Although the G25 shifter is a bit flimsy & I have had problems with it (as have many other people) I have to admit, that over time I have got used to it & am quite comfortable with it now.

I do wish that Logitech would make the individual components available for sale though. It would make the long-term durability of the shifter less of an issue.

I am assuming that the new clubsport pedals (which are pretty expensive relative to the other RS components) will be a step up from the g25 pedals...

Yeah, Logitech should also re-make the shifter and sell it for even 50 dollars even.
And yeah the Clubsport is huge steup up from G25 peddals, You can watch a Preview on Sim Racing tonight video, they say you can adjust distance travel, how strong or weak you want it to be, and few other things. You can even adjust depth of the pedals, so like in real life, you can set the GAS peddal to be more in depth over the Brake Pedal for easier heal and toe techniques. As well Its using some Magnetic tech thingies so its 100% guarantee that it will be always working 100%
Sure individual price is 200 US-dollars... and RS wheel is 170 (370 if bought separately) But it's 300 when bought as Combo, so you save 70 dollars, huge savings.. and Still a decent Price compared to other HIGH end Pedals.
Also the shifters I will receive seems its a huge step up over the G25's in smaller package even. Only thing that I like about G25's shifter is that you can use H shifter and Sequential just by pushing down the Shifter and dial it to sequential/H-shifter.. With Porsche ones I have to unplug them and re plug 2 separate shifters.
