Sub €300 Sim Rig; been tearing my hair out.

[Holiace]

Hey people! So for about a week now I have been looking all over for a sim seat setup, a rig I guess.

GT Omega Evo, Fanatec CSL and even the Playseat Challenge (The lawnchair of racing seats) are just a few examples that seem reasonable. Sadly, they all have their problems it seems. It’s either a bad seat, poor rigidity or lack of movement when it comes to pedal positioning and wheel position. The Fanatec seat seems to be the best despite seeming quite flimsy compared to the other two. I have watched tons of reviews on Youtube and I always end up where I started; Clueless as to what to do.

Can any owners help me? Any company I have missed? I have looked through this entire list too: http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threa...gs-cockpits-pedals-wheels-master-list.239878/

I am in the seat 12hrs per day every day pretty much

Oh, yea lol if I were to do that I'd have to sleep 2 hours per night It seems I shouldn't worry too much then, good to know!

The seat really is a cheap Chinese affair with little support and quite flimsy in build, a decent seat should be on the top of anyone's list if they intend to spend serious time in it, I should take a leaf from my own book and have that new seat in already

Are you talking with or without the support brackets? They are available since the update
(but I can't seem to find them atm)

D'oh, was talking bout the wrong omega seat...

Have you looked at DTM experience official chair on their site? Look at price, not so much over 300€.

Forget that.....seriously, my mate has one, he says the rig has more flex than his debit card.

Also, it doesn't have a shifter plate.

What do we know about the Total Spanish Simulator?
