    Gday Guys.
    Long time lurker and have been putting together a rig. I am moving up to Fana gear up from my Logi desktop set up.
    I build a "Vibrating Dolly" (lols) for a TR RS8 Pit. Consists of 2 50W base shakers hooked up to electronics of a 100W Sub woofer.

    Took me a moment to realise but I think you're in the sim racing buy/swap/sell on Facebook aren't you? I've seen that dolly elsewhere today. Love the rig mate.

    Picked up a bargain today off of Facebook BSS. $100 GTUltimate Seat. Replaced my ghetto backend I made. Couldn't resist it as these things are $700 and it's like new though it is missing the buttkicker fitting. Can you buy those separately?

    Well I think I'm about done spending on this thing. Absolutely love this setup, other than a BMW wheel later down the track I don't think I'll be adding to it again for a long time. Formula Black just turned up today, haven't used it yet as I got another PS4 Pro so I can stop moving it between rooms whenever I want to race but needed to copy the content between the two consoles to save me downloading it all again.

    Love my formula rim for gt3 and f1 racing... I did replace my paddles with these because every so often the gears wouldnt change at the critical time (as always).
    I got these and they are amazing, but since then there are now cheaper variants using same magnetic click function. IMHO a worthy mod

    I'll take a look, had a couple of others recommend similar for this rim but they said it was because they struggled to always press the paddle as their fingers didn't always reach. Thought I'd try it out a while first and see how I go.

    The button box is just USB, plug and play as it's based on a keyboard and the tablet is an Android Sony Z2. I just downloaded RS Dash and use that for the telemetry and Crewchief for my spotter. I turned the in-game spotter off on PCars 2 as this one is personalised and I can give it voice commands like 'tell me the car in front's last lap time' etc.
