Omg god just saw the review of the new Thrustmaster 458 challenge wheel on inside-simracing .
Rev scale they gave that wheel a 9

kai, next mod you do not sent them a piece to review. What a waste

Maybe new mod there....

William Geuze · May 7, 2013

Not everyone values the mod as you do, you know

Kurt Vanhee · May 7, 2013

It is not that but sounds not very objective to me, thats all

William Geuze · May 7, 2013

I think it is almost next to impossible to be truly objective when reviewing products like these. I know I can't!

The steering wheel has arrived this morning ......
All amazing.
But there is one problem. I can not configure the Sim Pro display.
I do not create the profile and I do not find the directory Rfactor,
Do you know how to help me?

Kurt Vanhee · May 20, 2013

Hi,

I had the same problem. Try the following: Don't install the Software to the standard folder (C:\....) Try to install it to a different partition. That should fix it.

You can use SIMSLI - doesn't support all sims out there but some that the SimDisplay software doesn't support, i.e. pCARS, and it has some additional features as well.

An essential upgrade I think! My original TM setup lasted a month I think...

Do you NKK for these Kai? Did you consider offering carbon look paddles as well? Or maybe anodizing

?

Hi,
Yes i use NKK for the MOD, ive tried alot different buttons and so on but this came out at the best possible solution. Feels fantastic while driving.

The paddles itself will stay stock due to space limitations and the fact that it would get a bit too expensive to change all that. Right now i will offer the shiftpaddle MOD for 25€, so pretty affordable and even interesting for PS3 drivers as stock addition.
The clutchpeddals in future will be different though.

Hello Kai,

I still have your modified wheel which is just an amazing piece of art and works great.

Do you happen to know if there exists a cable that actually firs to the slot at the backside of the wheel? I would like to extend my steer column and therfore I need an extension cable...

Thanks!
