    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Looks more of a toy to me. And that's coming from someone who uses Thrustmaster! I wouldn't be considering it. I'd like to go to Fanatec but from what I've read online, and following the issues Mace has been having, that's not going to happen. I'm also quite invested in the Thrustmaster...

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Looking around online on various sim racing forums, it sounds like Fanatec are in a right mess with deliveries! Plenty of stories of people ordering weeks/ months ago for delivery before Xmas and recieving nothing.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    To be honest, most of the aluminium rigs are very similar (Trak racer, sim lab, gt omega) so you wouldn't go wrong with any of them. I went with Gt Omega as it was the best value at the time (I think it still is the cheapest). The only possible issue going forward with the Prime Lite is the...

    I was tempted to go for the xl as I'm a bit on the chunky side, but a lot of reports/ reviews said it was huge and I thought I may be like a child sat it it! I went for the RS9 but in hindsight, I should've wait until the RS12 was back in stock, paid more and got that. Not that the RS9 is a bad...

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Yes, GT Omega Prime Lite. Seems to be about the best value for money at the moment. Most of the profile rigs are very similar though (Trak racer, Simlab, GT Omega). Some people complain that the pedal plate flexes when running loadcell pedals I'm nowhere near that stage yet. The Prime comes...

    Finished for now. Wirings about as tidy as I can make it. Probably be Tlcm pedals next. Keep looking at the SF1000 wheel but I keep reading that unless you are sat in an f1 position, it's hard to read the screen. I've got the older ferrari f1 wheel, and I tablet so I'm not really missing out.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    I'd like to say it was enjoyable, it was at first but by the time your screwing the 97th T-nut and the fecker twists and pops out of line it gets a bit tedious. Main frame wasn't too bad but attaching the seat, the pedal plate and particularly the shifter mount was painful! Didn't help being a...

    Update on my rig : GT Omega Prime Lite built. Pic is a work in progress. It's all built and assembled now, just some minor adjustments to make and a bit of cable tidying. Massive upgrade from my Playseat Evolution. Solid and, in my opinion very over engineered, but I'm pretty sure I won't...

    Latest Logitech dd is supposed to be good. But it's lacking any choice of wheel and is also best part of £1500 with pedals. Quite happy with my Thrustmaster T300, although waiting for the T818 to be available for console. Whether I buy it will depend on price.

    Not rattle around as such, just the seat being far too wide. Did a bit more research and read of a guy who was 6ft 3 and 260 pounds, even he found it too big. I've ordered it with the rs9 seat now. It was either the Prime Lite or the Playseat Trophy. I do like the look of the Trophy but with...

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Pretty close to pulling the trigger on a GT Omega Prime Lite rig as an upgrade from my Playseat. Anyone else on here run one ( prime lite or standard prime)? Really unsure on what seat to get. I'm not that light weight (about 16 stone, 5ft 8) so I thought the xl seat would be best but these are...

    The dream would be to go Fanatec DD but I'm pretty invested in the Thrustmaster system so can't see that happening. Was waiting for the T818 DD console version from Thrustmaster but there has been no word on that and I fear it will be way over my budget. Tlcm load cell pedals would make sense...

    Not bad if you're on a budget. Never owned one but tried a few and to me, they feel almost toy like. I know some say there are some top end sim racers still using these, not sure if that's true.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Too invested in Thrustmaster now, got 3 Thrustmaster wheels. Been waiting for the T818 to become console ready but it's taking a long time! Thinking about upgrading to a TGT 2 in the meantime but not sure if it's much of a jump from a T300. Also, from reading round online, best upgrade you can...

    That looks a cracking price for what you are getting, shame they don't do that set for PlayStation for the same money. Should fit on the majority of well known rigs ie Playseat, Next Level Racing, GT Omega. Don't know about Fanatec as I'm Thrustmaster, but most rigs have a selection of mounting...

    I'd agree with what Andropidis says about leaving it setup, definate gamechanger. I guarantee you will use it a lot more if it is always setup. As for the Playseat Evolution, there is a lot of hate for them on the sim racing forums mainly due to flex and the central bar. I've been using one for...

    I'd go with the playseat challenge over the next level racing one. I've read/ heard the next level one is a pig to fold up. Always plenty of playseat challenges on Facebook Market place for not much money.

    Eufy or Blink Video Doorbell

    Why the hate on Ring doorbells?? Is it just because of the subscriptions? You don't have to subscribe, but nothing is stored if you don't. We have a Ring wired doorbell, no issues at all with it. Paid £30 for it, so money saved over a Eufy will pay for 2 years subs.

    Tracking always out?

    They didn't check the ball joint, just said the track rods were ok. They've said bring it back next friday and they'll check it again free and we'll go from there. So if it is the ball joint, how much are we talking for a garage to fit new??

    Tracking always out?

    Had my 182 tracking setup on a laser system last week due to uneven tyre wear issues. Was quite a long way out. Anyway they straightened it out, and said to bring it back the following week (today). Just been down there and the tracking was again quite a bit out! Any ideas what this could...

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Re: Cheap for a 182??? New bumper won't be required. Its a small crack and have been quoted £200 inc spraying. Thanks for the opinions, I'll see what some dealers say about a trade in. I think I'd rather keep it then let it go for less then £3k.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Re: Cheap for a 182??? Sorry, didn't state the age its June 05 (so on 05 plate) and its Inferno. I was thinking of asking for £3.5k and dropping a bit if needed. I would prefer to trade it in but I can't see a dealer taking it with the faults.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Cheap for a 182??? Just after a bit of advice really. Thinking about putting the 182 up for sale/ or trading it in. This is not a for sale ad or anything, just thoughts at the moment. Being honest, its not the best example. It needsall wheels refurbing, front bumper is cracked, 2 chips...

    Broken spring - suggested replacement for OEM ride height?

    Don't go through renault!! I had a broken spring on MOT day last. Due to it needing to be done that day, I went for genuine renault part. It was something like £120!! For one spring!!
