New toy (G25 wheel)

Featured Replies

I took delivery of a G25 steering wheel today :D:D:D:D

Ready for GT5 like innit :)

I've been busy all designing and making a stand for it.

I'm really pleased with my design, I'll try and get some photos up later.

Flash git! :D

I'll continue tapping on the sixaxis :D

I had too as I'm just utter crap on the pads. Race driver grid I'm fine but GT5 just ain't happening on the pads :thumbdwn:

It'll be awesome!

I loved GT4 with the old logitech wheel and now love Forza with the microsoft wheel.

Can't wait for Forza 3 to come out although don't think i'll be abel to stretch to buying the new porsche designed wheel that goes with it! :(

by stand do you mean racing seat like a Gameracer? I've been trying to find someone to make me one cheaper than their £200 asking price for ages!

I only found out the other day that Play.com had a special where they were selling those for a ton. Gutted. Fantastic piece of kit, just a shame for me that the 360 doesn't support it.

So yeah any suggestions for good cheap compact stand would be great:(:(

Clever. Very Clever. Never thought of doing that. How did you pay for it and where? After seeing your genius idea I'm tempted and like you said best to be ready for GT5.

Not a lot tbh :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Pikey mod FTW

Nice solution, but I'm saving up for this one:

Audi TT Simulator

:orb_lol:

only just picked up this thead

:doh:

looks very similar to when my old GT4 wheel was clamped to the arm of a directors chair and my current microsft wheel is clamped to a tiny occasional table.

think i'll keep searching for gameracer alternative! :P

Brilliant!

Do you not get in the way of the missus trying to iron though!!??

No Phil

Part of the deal with his better half is that he irons while he plays. Since getting it 'ol fatty turns up for work every day looking like a modern art masterpiece :) such is the quality of the ironing.

Having the wheel since jan 2007, it really is a very well made product. My son uses it almost every day. No rattles and nothing came off up to now.

Gives a very good response, either with the PS3 or with PC games.

I made a tittle stand for it to play when sitting on the couch. For PC gaming it is attached to the table in front of my sons monitor. (sitting in a modded recaro as deskchair).

Soon a G27 will be out (already looking forward to the new wheel).

Play have a great offer on at the moment for this wheel! Only £99! Seems like an awesome deal to me! (Not seeen it cheaper)

Play.com (UK) : Logitech G25 Racing Wheel (Get An Extra £100 Off with Voucher Code: LOGG25) : Computing - Free Delivery

I have the older Momo Logitech wheel, and wish I could justify the upgrade to the G25. Makes driving games sooo much better! :)

Feck ................

I had a look there last week when ordering. I must have missed that ....DOH

I paid a little more than that but not as much as some places wanted ;)

We also have the older Momo (red one with leather), the 900° and the G25.

The G25 is so much better for feel and directness and with the 99.99 GBP deal it is a steal. This would be enough to justify a new toy like this :D

I would have waited for the new one, but it's essentially the same wheel with a few more buttons.

And it's got too be £200 plus. Fark that for a laugh.

Aha! The G25. Mines been sitting in the spare room gathering dust ever since GT5 Prologue came out. I'm loving the ironing board pikey mod! I never thunk of that.

I'm busy trying to do me own pikey mod using a well worn Ikea lounge chair and some lengths of timber. I think I could afix a frame across the arms of the chair to attach the wheel and gears to. Then I need to fix an inclined foot pedal board to the bottom. I'm sure it can be done.......
