Hahaha, slow slow upgrade la..my wallet super dry nowadays.
Saving up for handbrake and Sparco seatbelts.

I saw some DIY just use a scrap actual car braking system with braking fluid plus the actual breakpad and disk brake

That lots of metal hardware work especially with real fluid, my G923 brake pedal already hard enough on leg exercise for a day. If i had time i might use my mountain bike foxshox hydraulic absorber and mods the pedal.

Found this on ebay:

Im using thrustmaster haha and did the squash ball method

yeah i guess the euro truck simulator 2 is very addictive.
Having travelled Europe via driving, im very impressed by it. so immersive and real.

Anyone know anyone who got wheels for rent?

Yes indeed! totally addictive and immersive because it really simulate my actual experience driving home 'balik kampung' style. All those driving ambient and places to visit makes driving more enjoyable. Sometimes on weekend i spent 12 hours just driving just visiting places. Here's snapshots and tweet videos of my truck driving.

Vibration dissipation via seatbelt
Finally i've installed SPARCO seatbelt and to my surprise it was really worth it for some immersion reason:

1. The chassis vibration from ButtKicker system and SIM HUB "Shake-It" reverberate into my seat belt making it more immersive feeling through my body especially the vibration from various engine and brake rumble feedback.

2. Since i'm on VR it makes it feel more secure and life like behind the wheel.

3. Helps to force me into proper seating posture, no more back bone pain.

Soon probably will put strong digital high torque servo to pull the seatbelt for extra G-Force effect since i have 2x extra unused connection port on SIM HUB/ADAFRUIT motor shield hardware.

Oh nice, Buttkicker. And that rig is from Simmatch is it? Interested to find a 80/20 rig too, but good ones like Sim-Lab are from Netherlands and heavy, if import to here sure expensive

Anyone of u using Heusinkveld Sprint's, Fanatec Clubsport V3 or the more budget Thrustmaster T-LCM? Those looks like nice stuff


Oh hi, you from the Office Chair Thread right? Interested in simracing now as well?

The only driving game that i play is Euro Truck Simulator only lah.
Controller is sufficient. hehe.

Im using thrustmaster T150 with t3pa pedal jer and TH8A addon.

Bought T150 cuz back then T300 doesnt comes with T3PA pedal with clutch. Although tested both feedback, it felt 90% similar so didnt bother to upgrade.

There are alot of mods can be done on t3pa to make the brakes feels nicer... especially the rubber cone that comes with the pedal itself.

After i try the Akina track i realized i suk drifting on narrow roads. Need to sharpen my drift skills first. hahaha.

I didn't rev matching, hard to 'blip' accelerator pedal timing right to rev the engine a bit and bite the clutch when i busy chasing the opponent infront of me and cornering. Will try to learn rev matching soon. Thanks.

Grip is faster than drift but yeah.. just constantly force yourself to blip the throttle when you downshift and eventually muscle memory will set in.

Hi, good evening. Last week buy Logitech G29. Last night suddenly stereng no power. Green led and pedal okay. Only stereng can't use now. I suspect power supply dead.

Actually this is second time happen. Last month buy Logitech G29 at shopee. Send back to claim warranty. Need wait 3-4 week to get replacement.

Hand itchy buy new last week. Now broken again, same problem. Want to buy new power supply. Already buy at Amazon but take time to arrived. Hand itchy to play GT Sport.

Please share link if got, thank you.

( Update ) - Yesterday received this adapter from Amazon US Power Adapter Charger Replacement PWR+
My Logitech G29 is back, mood racing on fire
