Ordered Sim3D 3 months ago and still wait for shipping. Curious about the Bassshaker. Will it improve a lot in additional to the Pedal shaker kit?For the "intuitive brake feel" you could also go the tactile route.
A good bassshaker with Simhub is about 90% as good as the Active Pedals ( Guesstimate!!) and only lacks the rapid change for feel settings(pressure and travel) by software.
But it would be DIY and needs some tinkering in the depth of Simhub to get there.
On the other hand you could get away with under 500€ if you keep it on the brake pedal.
(which you definitely won´t as tyre slip in feet and butt really adds to the FFB of the wheel.)
GSI is on the short list too. Meanwhile, there is a slight personal preference toward the design of Ascher.On the wheel and base front, have you excplicitly ruled out GSI wheels or just not considered them?
The only reason I bring it up is because GSI is an authorized Simucube reseller and their bundles with their wheels and Simucube bases do like they can potentially save a couple hundred dollars or so if you go with them.
Sounds like another research project that I can do for years to come.That could go from one (on the brake pedal) to forty nine (all over pedals, seat, wheel base and shifter)
For usefull feedback four ( one on brake and accelerator two on the seat) are very good starting point.
There is a lot of information in this forum, get yourself a jerry can of coffee or a barrel of beer and start researching.
I guess I will upgrade to SC2 first. At least, this product have survived the test of time and still at the top.You don't want a formula style wheel for MX5 Cup. I use a 320mm round wheel and consistently lap 1:37s. I have a SC2.
If you're happy with the 8Nm of your Fanatec, I'd recommend you go for the active pedal brake.
If you really want to upgrade to SC2 (and your budget allows for it) see if you can get the active pedal brake with the SC2.
Exactly.Sounds like another research project that I can do for years to come.
I use a Fanatec Clubsport 320mm rim with an Ascher Racing B24L-SC button plate.I guess I will upgrade to SC2 first. At least, this product have survived the test of time and still at the top.
What round wheel do you recommend? GSI product, perhaps?
Just to chime in again, although not adding much now:Current setup is fanatec DD 8nm with Heusinkveld Sprint set.
