No three pedal support in GT4. Aftermarket add-on pedals exist, but only a couple of other games support them. Oh, and those add-on pedals are $1000. Maybe down the road, but I think improving the shifter location (and using a real shifter) and adding a functional e-brake handle will come first. Oh, and a real steering wheel, too. This seems to work pretty well for now, though, or, at least from what I can tell from the 5 minutes Iāve actually had to be able to try it outā¦ Much more ātestingā will happen on Friday and Saturday nightsā¦ š

New upgradeā¦
Clutch pedal: Check. (but not supported in GT4)
Six Speed H-gated shifter: check. (also not supported in GT4ā¦ but switchable to sequential)
E-brake: Ummmā¦ Missing. Iām planning to add one.

Driving position is not optimal right now, the cockpit was designed for the Driving Force Pro, and the pedal set from the G25 is much deeper, so the pedals are too close for me. Itās fine if I move the seat back, but I like to be closer to the wheel. The plan is to revise the pedal mounting plate and the wheel mounting plate so that I can get everything right where I want it.
Feel of the new setup is MUCH nicer than the old, it seems much more precise and solid. The wheel is also very quiet in comparison to the Driving Force Pro. The location of the buttons is taking alot of getting used to at the moment, as I had grown used to them all being right at my thumbs, and now they are above the shifter.

It will be lower, not down beside the seat, though. Iād like to replicate the position of the controls in the Miata, because for me they are just about perfect.
Honestly, though, if the paddles are there I prefer to use them over anything else because then I never have to take my right hand off the wheel. I wuold have gotten this setup regardless if it had the clutch pedal and gated shifter. The upgraded wheel and pedals alone were worth it.

fucking sweetā¦
iāll have to find the link from the dupont registry site, but in a magazine of theirs a few months back they had something similar, but you were set a foot or so off the ground, and all around you angled up at you were speakers, and i think it came with a flat screen tooā¦but maybe notā¦maybe it was just the seat, steering wheel, and sound systemā¦either way, it looked like a gamers dreamā¦
