Show us your Gran Turismo racing set-up

[jaibee81]

I am always looking to improve my equipment. What do you have in mind to play GT Sport? I'm very interested in your cockpit. I have a Playseat Evolution and a Thrustamster t150 in use, where the T150 is covered with Alcantara and the buttons were positioned differently.

Thanks for your feedback

My super high end setup. /s

G29
Wheel stand pro
Ikea Poang chair

It's a pretty good temporary setup for the living room, the chair is actually perfect.

I'm on a T150 mounted to a desk from Argos for £20.00 ish and a swivel chair.

Not expensive, but super effective Does the job for me.

G29 mounted in a repurposed Ikea bookshelf, game rocker on a homemade platform to keep it from rocking. Great driving position, minimum expense.

 

[Shottah072]

Fitted with:
- T300 RS wheel base
- F1 Ferrari wheel or standard PS4 wheel
- Logitech G27 pedals with GTEYE brake spring
- TH8A shifter
- 32 inch screen mounted on the rig
- PS4 Pro
- Game PC
- Tritton 720+ 7.1 digital surround sound headset.

Before this setup i was running a G27 on a wheel stand and that worked fine but i have never regretted getting the rig.

If i were to upgrade anything now it would be the screen. Its an old toshiba television screen and i think a monitor would give a better picture and probably a little less input lag though the telly is not to bad on that.

G29 + playseat challenge

 

[cleanLX]

T150 and Playseat Challenge... living room... TV...
Not enough room for a dedicated rig/monitor... I suppose I could "make" room in the den, but, I'm not that committed to gaming.

 

[ceres2000]

I'd love to get a Challenge or Evolution but it's so fricking expensive here in India. The challenge is about $800 and the Evolution is between double or triple of that.

Instead I converted my old Yamaha keyboard stand into a Wheel Stand and a single seater sofa does work as my seat. Works out well together for now but I'm going to work on a better wood and metal solution soon.

Jealous.... Lots. Nice rig mate

Thanks, i love it. All in all it did cost me a fair chunk of money, though for a full on rig its still pretty basic (i've seen some trully insane rigs), and with all the time i sat in it its definetly money well spend imo.

I would love to have a 3 screen setup one day or maybe get my hands on a VR set when that really starts to kick off.

To think this hobby all started out when i won a G27 in a timetrial contest at a local electronic store back in 2010. I just happened to be in that store that day and won a brand new just released G27. I thought about selling it for a moment to get some quick cash, but when i tried it some more at home i was hooked.

G29 on a wooden box I made-c-clamped to my coffee table. I'm sitting on couch with pillows holding me up to reach the wheel.

I think there is a thread about this already. Would be nice if it would be posted there.

 

[vxr58]

T150 attached to a printer stand. Right paddle is playing up so have to use r2 to change up. Peddles won’t stay put, have to go into auto drive at least once a race to reposition them. If I’m in a close battle, the peddles end up half way across the room and I end up with strained genitals.

G29 and Playseat Evolution sitting in the living room

 

[JohnnyMac]

G29 clamped to a wooden shelf board modified to sit on top of a modified PS3 Rockband game drum stand.

Works for me.

 

[Shottah072]

Nice ! That rig looks very sturdy and well build. Is it DIY ? If so well done !

Fanatec gear sure looks really nice, bet it drives great to ?

 

[KONTRAone]

Glad to see a lot of clever and ingenious budget DIY rigs in here 👍 And for those of you who are having trouble keeping your pedals in place, a roll of good rubber kitchen drawer liner may just do the trick.

Anyway, here is my POS rig in all it's glory lol. The desk needs lateral supports so I can turn up the FFB past 5 but the height and fit is perfect. Hoping to get a playseat and a bigger monitor by the end of the year but for now it gets the job done.

- T300rs GT
- LG 24" IPS monitor
- $20 Mainstays laptop desk
- plastic lawn chair with DIY lumbar and back support xD

Blew all my money on a T-GT. Rig is made from a couple of IKEA Lak tables, clamps, IKEA stool legs for the shifter mounts on both sides, and a car seat. I've got some cardboard Defi gauges to warn me of high temps lol (cardboard Rays TE37 wheels on Advans with 6-pot Brembos are printed but not mounted yet). My sim rig was in the pre-nup before I got married lol!

It is extremely sturdy and very adjustable but it's not home made. I got it from these guys https://sim-lab.eu/

There are many others who supply 8020 rigs but I can really recommend these guys. Or you can by the profile yourself and get it cut to size and make a DIY rig.

I've been a Fanatec customer since the very beginning and have been really happy with all the products from them. I know some have had issues but luckily I've never encountered a problem with the three wheels, four pedal sets and four wheel rims I've had from them. I'd highly recommend them also.

That's exactly how I started with a home built wooden rig but then went down the rabbit hole of sim racing gear!
