I have a lot of friends who use the DFGT and all of them are satisfied after modding it a bit.

Most of them use some sort of a pedel mod to makes them feel stiffer.

If you thinking of getting a G25 save the money for a G27 it's a huge improvement over the G25. That all I can say on the wheel aspect.

I have read reviews on the g27 and they all say that it isn't worth the extra money over the g25. But I'd sooner take an actually persons advice than that of a website. I'm asking about the dfgt because my local Argos has one on offer with the pedals for 90 quid. That good? A g25 is about double that.

Its going for £80 in my local argos?
 
Got my dfgt for £80 about ten months ago and never looked back. The downside is that it has made me part with £270 (as of tomorrow) to get an Openwheeler seat to complete it.
 
Gettin it tmora, gonna run the race with the ds3, seen as thats what I.have been practicing with. Next week dfgt!!!
 
Wise move. Take a week to find your speed again. If like most ive spoken to, you'll hate it at first. But then, half way through something, you'll realise it's awesome!
 
I hated the wheel at first but eventually you realize its better and makes you faster , now I only use the ds3 to chat
 
At first it's a Very steep learning curve! Be warned the first week will be very rough. Remember you need to relearn how to drive again and all your car will need to be retuned aswell.

What u mean all my car need to be returned!? U mean the settings!
 
Just opened my lounge

Ran a 52.0 earlier with a mistake in sector 4

I'm going for pole !!
 
Yes your suspension settings, LSD and Brakes will need to change because they will feel completely different from going from a DS3 to Wheel.
 
It took me a lot longer than a week to adjust, a few months, but it was well worth it and GT5 is a lot more fun with a DFGT and a Wheelstand Pro. Couldn't recommend them both highly enough.

What stand are you getting ?
 
I don't use a stand I use my computer desk as a wheel stand and my computer monitors has HDMI input so I can hook the PS3 to that.
 
I just have mine hooked up to a desk , ill get a playseat or stand one day but no rush its been a joy after I got thru the learning curve
 
As I said earlier, getting the Openwheeler seat and stand tomorrow. Few days delivery then I'll be all hooked up 👍
 
I have a small table that is just the right height that I can use it while sat comfortably on my sofa :D

I would love to have room for a playseat, if I would get anything maybe a wheel stand pro or similar, just so it had more adjustment and could be stored away more easily.
 
I'm gonna try n rig somethin up, I have a reclining gaming chair, so a stand probably wouldn't be beneficial. I might attach some kind of folding table to the arm that I can pullover to use the wheel. Anyhoo goin t bed na, c ya all tmora, happy racing!!!
 
I use a folding wooden table for the wheel (keeps shaking) and a biscut box to support the pedals (it's crappy).
I reckon you should use a lower powered car for the first few runs,my first practice car was a Suzuki Crevo.
 
Yeh I recommend 500 pp to start off with and get a feel for the balance , something like a s2000 or nsx
 
got a couple of hours practise last night, played around with the suspension and got it taking corners much better and shaved another half second, put down a 1:53.9 best now and can run 1:54's pretty consistently all the way to pit on lap 10 with tyre wear even front and rear. I think that should put me mid-pack so I'm happy I could get a battle going with someone tonight :)
 
I might not make the race as my school CCA has a competition tomorrow and Im the reserve for the 5km run(Yes Im surprised too!).This starts 7am for me and I have to be there at 8am...
 
Damn this sucks. I love racing with ya Phil. But it fine when your done running we can have practice tonight.
