Pics of your setup

[BDM_Vb]

My put away setup
I live in a 1-room appartment with out much Space so my criteria was it should be easy to put a side and I could store the Wheel stand in a closet (when I get one). That way I´m saving some Space, and most important it wont look like a rig-/living-/bed room. I´m gonna do some changes to it, im planning on getting a Deep Dish Wheel on a DSD adaptor, get the TH8RS Shifter and make a DIY Real car E-Brake. Made a quick job in paint on how i will Mount it. Also i´m thinking about flipping the pedals to GT-style like this guy did! But not being able to get a big heavy rig (in this appartment) I came up with this for now.

Niiice wheel B j XD box little bit greater than G25 xp practice setup M8

I've played on inverted setups, it is quite nice as your foot moves in a more "natural" arc. I still prefer floor mounted Tilton style as they come. Pedals just need more travel, but that's easier to mod when inverted and removed from the pedal case entirely.

Carpet tiles must suck, have you tried some kind of pedal stopper device? Maybe an old school text book, or a piece of wood wedged up against a wall and your pedals?

thx bro finally 3pics XD

I don't know if it was you or me, but it works. Sick setup bro, I can hear your music pumping already with the blue lights by your pedals. Feel like I'm in a Belgian club, woo woooo...

Is your sister home yet? She bring her friends? Pics? LOL!!!

No problem.

Im too far from the tv unit to wedge anything to it.

 

[TH137Z]

sucks as i have a heavy left foot lol.

This is my current setup. It was meant to be temporary but I haven't got a proper rig, still. I have to be careful to not pull down on the wheel as it is mounted to the edge of a round table. Also means shifter is in a stupid, wonky position. It's not very good but I manage

Just a normal kitchen chair and a mat on the floor for the pedals to grip

My POV. The centre line is just some electrical tape

Yes, I play on a Ben 10 T.V.

Is that your room?! It seems likes one of those "Prepper" Rooms where they collect stuff for the possible "end of the world" LOL.

Get building on a rig! If you want give me specific desired dimensions, and i will come up with a suitable design. For those who do not know, my whole setup can be split into two. So then i only just have One Base, a Seat which can be folded away into the garage, and the Dash and Wheel as is. Because it's on wheels, it's actually mobile too!

 

[SeanWelland]

Been a while since I've been around these areas but I felt like sharing my setup as it's definitely at it's pinnacle.

I realise both of the pictures are relatively the same, but let me explain what's there.

32" Screen - PS3 + Game collection in the keyboard tray - Hifi Stereo + speakers - Album collection (goes back twice at the same height) - DFGT + Pedals - PC + Mouse & Keyboard & Graphics Tablet & Headset and some bits of paper for keeping notes.

Hope you like.

Haha, that room is the office/storage room. No survival stuff, just lots of model toys, VHS tapes and photo albums. I would come up with a rig design and make one but until some more drastic room organising occurs, I'm not too concerned to make one.

so. i got a new steering wheel today, for the g27. and because i didnt do enough research. my new wheel doesnt fit.... so i was thinking of fabricating a adapter out of some mdf i have in the shed. now assuming i know what im doing (ive got a pretty good idea.) is this a good way to go about it? so long as i make diameter lines the holes should all line up properly with little fuss. peoples thoughts and ideas???

By the way. I believe they sell a nice adapter for the wheel. There is a guy named Chilicoke, that has tons of tutorials on YouTube, that has this.

You can buy the adapter in the video from his website

my advice to everyone on a G27 is drift bare foot so all the hair and crap from your socks does not end up in your cogs etc.

Did you learn the hard way?

 

[TH137Z]

maybe. i still drift with socks. pedals are too damn cold haha. :3

and just saying. i think i found a new hobby, modding my g27. so far its been fun, and works well. but now with the shifter too far away, im making a console for it to fit. and mite aswell go for the handbrake mod whilst im here
its more fun modding my g27, i can do what ever i want, and cant get defected lol.

Lol no.

It really hurts when you bang your foot off of the edges of those pedals.

Race shoes or tight fitting slippers are pretty much perfect for the G25/G27.

And if you really and to, you can take the thing apart every so often to clean it, although you really don't need to.

I find the best thing to use so far are thongs (Thongs as in Flip flops/Jandals) because of the slippery sole

^ That's half the truth there, you were warned and infractioned for the following too:

•You will not use “textspeak” (“r”, “u”, “plz”, etc.) in your messages. Decent grammar is expected at all times, including proper usage of capital letters.

Not just "Down Under" either but given that the owner asks all of the members to follow the rules he set we'd appreciate if all members would actually follow them too.

It sets GTP on a 'higher' level than most forums (if I may put it that way). Keep in mind that it is an international site now and not all members have English as their first language. You may have noticed it's not mine either.

Enough said on the subject, back on topic now. 👍
