I know what you mean OP, I was used to my friends fully built racing seat and frame.... but a good very effective and simple setup is a table similar to the one I got right here in the pictures below...If I remember correctly I bought it at Wal Mart (Not 100% sure though) you can find computer tables similar to this at any office store and they can be pretty much any height thanks to adjustable height office chairs, but the most important thing is on the bottom it has to be free so you can put your pedals on the carpet, so the table can't have any pieces on the bottom, has to have space for the pedals...

it's really sturdy, I can get pretty violent with the wheel when I'm drifting for example, and it doesn't budge much, also it has room just barely to fit a 21 inch widescreen like the one I got in the pics there.....
And coming from race seat framed setups custom built to this, I've never really had a problem or had an urge to go back to the seat/frame setups so it's your next best solution and it works pretty well.... I'm 6'1 and 190 lbs and I can play like this for a few hours without any comfort issues.... I have a $300 ergonomic office chair though, so you need a comfy seat offcourse, but as far as positioning of the steering wheel and petals, it's perfect

here's a quick picture
