^ the shaking in cockpit view is supposed to simulate real life, it has nothing to do with your setup. you cant change it unfortunately, im annoyed too, i dont mind a little bit, but at higher speeds its way too overboard.

Btw when driving press start and go into the quick options and click and change the interior view angle toZoom, its much better for cockpit view, more realistic.

I HATE B-Spec!!!!!!

May someone provide a list of cars that are able to be RACE MODIFIED? What are the benefits of race modifying?

that's a list of all cars that can be race modded, to me it doesnt really do much, I think the only car out of that list worth race modifying is the ZR1... i RM'd my RSX, NSX, Silvia, Camaro, ZR1, and all of them get only slight bumps in HP, they handle great though and look awesome... if you're lookin for performance out of RM, go for the ZR1 rm, others are just for looks pretty much

That is correct!

I just have a Logitech G25, took the pedals out of the casing, flipped them upside down and mounted them on some L brackets I found at Home Depot.





May look cheesy but I don't care, they rock! Especially with the Honda sticker!
how much if you make it or if i buy yours or i trade you my g27 pedal + cash

No thank you, I do not want your G27 pedals
I can however be a friendly neighbor and make you the same thing just pay for the materials and perhaps a contribution for my time?
Its really easy you can do it yourself, just unscrew, flip pedals then re-screw, done! But if you do not feel confident then I can do it. No worries there.

You need something to mount the whole thing to. I mounted my contraption to my Playseat Evolution.
You would have to show me what you want to mount the pedal frame to if you have something that's NOT a Playseat.

Or how about I make a HOW TO: YouTube video on it! That would be kick ass bro!!

Wait, thats a playseat? Why did you have to build that at all?

The way it mounts on the stock seat not any good?

Yes, the photos I took are from my Playseat Evolution. I did it because I wanted to. I wanted my racing simulation experience to be as real as possible. Plus it was a cheap mod and it feels better.



Playseat Evolution with a Logitech G25 that's not modified.



See the black casing around the pedals? I took that apart as the pedals are too close together for my taste and flipped them outside down cause I don't like how the pedals are "european style" But in order to do that I had to mount them to something else because the black casing the pedals come in will not work in this situation.
It's all personal preference anyways.

This is my Playseat Evolution...

if u could make a how to video, that would be great. i have already watched chillicoke's video on how to take apart the pedal and inverse them.

i've been waiting patiently for you to take more pics

anyways, is this how you mounted the L brackets? i know the lines are connected the right way, but oh well, it was ms paint...lol

lol no worries. It does the job!
Yes, thats how the L brackets are mounted. If you look closely I had to use a small extension made out of the same material and located in the exact same section at Home Depot. I believe it was the isle next to all the nuts, bolts and screws.

I used M6 bolts I think. 10 or 11mm socket and just put it all together. The Playseat already has predrilled holes for the black pedal casing to be screwed into so I just used those holes. Also had to drill some new holes into the L bracket and aluminum bars.
Once I install the dead pedal I'll make a YouTube video and post it up. I'll snap a few photos too.

Re Jo, every lap for the Tsukuba RX 7 race has to be under a minute, all my laptimes were 58's and 59's and I caught up got first place with just under 2 laps to go. So yea it can definitely be done if all your laps are under a minute

I'm still fairly early in the game right now, but I have 4 B-Spec drivers, 2 cold, 1 neutral, 1 hot and the neutral one seems the best to me. The cold guys are too passive, the hot guy is too aggressive ...

Maybe once they get to higher levels they'll be better ...
