A question/help about a wheel setup.

So within the next couple months I’m planning on getting the Thrustmaster t300rs gt wheel and pedals for my PS5 so I can use it for ACC (and other potential racing games but mostly ACC). But a buddy of mine is saying to get the Moza R3 with a Brook Ras1ution 2 wheel converter. Overall the price comes out to:

T300: a bit under 400 when on sale (like 370)

Moza R3 + converter = 400 (wheel and pedals are 270, converter is 120)

Which would be the better buy? It’s my first time looking into a wheel setup and I don’t want to go crazy on price, and they seem about the same price wise. Would the converter with the Moza be consistent enough or should I just start with the t300?

So, I am on a PS5 (and before you say anything, yes I know the line is on, I have been practicing with it both on and off).

My main question is how to reach this point of the track (passing under the circled banner) within 1 minute 15 seconds. I have studied and practiced the line that can lead to an 8:06 lap time, but the best I’ve done is reached that point 2-3 seconds behind every time when done correctly. The best I can do now in the BMW M4 GT4 is about 8:29. I even have the same exact car tuning that would allow for such a fast lap time.

Is it mainly due to the fact I play on console so not having the performance of a pc and wheel/pedal rig affects it? I’ve also noticed a lot of wheel users (including the 8:06 lap time) does not seem to have force feedback enabled at all which seems to give them buttery smooth turning (but I could be wrong on how FFB works).

Not looking to complain with this but I’m trying to understand what I could be doing wrong (as I’ve seen people claim mid 8:20s or lower on controller) if it’s just more practice needed or the fact that controller is just way harder to race with than wheel & pc.
