Buttkicker gamer pro, mounting location

I have the Sim Lab P1X Pro, Qubic Challenger HS13 and the Next Level Racing Flight Simulator Seat.

I'd like to mount the ButtKicker Gamer Pro but not sure where.

Would it be okay if I mount it on the back of the seat ?

Underneath isn't much space for it.

Could anyone please help? Thank you.

Need help, e36 Speedo won’t go past 60

I recently found a e36 cluster and thought it would be fun to rig up a dash for simhub. I have everything working…. but the speedometer. I am wondering if this is a code problem or a hardware problem where I will need to go into the dash and fix stuff. Basically. The speedometer will go up from zero to 60 but once it reaches sixty it starts coming back down to zero. Rewired it three times and tried almost everything. If anyone has any solutions that would be amazing. Thanks for taking the time to read.

Shifter under $100

Looking for recommendations for any good shifters under $100 besides the logitech g shifter. Its a little bit above $100 at $111 but I was also looking at the turtle beach velocity one shift and right now thats what most likely I will get. Are there any other good shifters around that price point that I should take a look at?

R3 bundle + HGP shifter not working in forza horizon 6

I already set up the telemtry for the game and that works but whenever I try to bind my wheel, the wheel buttons, or my pedals they dont bind. But when i bind my shifter then the game can detect it. If i unplug my shifter then forza doesn't even give me the option to bind wheel buttons. How do I fix this? I am on pit house 1.3.9.

Logitech RS50 Not Powering On

Logitech RS50 Wheel base for PS/PC will no longer turn on. I removed my base from my rig to check my serial number for a separate issue, carefully unplugged all wire prior to removal. Upon initial start up after re mounting the base, the 3 white loading lights appeared briefly on the screen then went away. Since then I have not been able to power on the device at all (no dots, just blank screen). I've started a warranty claim with Logitech but am aware that could take a while before it is resolved. Has anyone had similar issues or have any ideas on what I could try? (Note: I've tried the basics; plugging into different outlets, connecting to my PC (wheel does not show up in GHub), unplugging everything completely and letting it sit for 10+ minutes to no avail)

First-time Fanatec buyer disappointed — Escalated May 12 with no response, missing motor from DD+ bundle

Hey everyone,

This was my first time buying from Fanatec. I’ve always respected them as the gold standard in sim racing hardware, so I finally decided to invest in the ClubSport DD+ Ready2Race GT3 Bundle (15 Nm).

I received most of the parts, but the motor is missing. One of the tracking numbers was created but never picked up by UPS. I was escalated on May 12, and even after following up several times, I’ve had no response from the Escalations team.

Ticket #2008973508

I’ve already posted on the official Fanatec forum and tagged them on X. I’m mainly looking for advice on what actually works to get them to respond, or any visibility that might help move this forward.

Has anyone else run into slow or nonexistent escalation responses lately?

Appreciate any insight.

My DIY Sim Racing Journey: Building everything from WindSim to Custom Dashboards. Shared all builds on YouTube!

¡Hola a todos!

He pasado los últimos meses obsesionado con mejorar mi simulador y hacerlo lo más inmersivo posible mediante proyectos de bricolaje. Quería compartir mi progreso con ustedes.

He estado trabajando en:

Volantes personalizados.

WindSim (para sentir la velocidad en monoplazas).

Paneles de instrumentos y pantallas de marchas con SimHub.

Sensores hápticos para la vibración del chasis.

Botones personalizados para tener todo a mano.

Decidí documentar todo el proceso, incluyendo las piezas que usé y cómo lo cableé todo, en mi nuevo canal de YouTube: Sim Racers. Si te gusta trastear con el equipo o simplemente quieres ahorrar dinero construyéndolo tú mismo, ¡no dudes en echarle un vistazo! 🏁

Mira los montajes aquí:

👉Subscríbete

Con gusto responderé cualquier pregunta técnica sobre los componentes o la configuración en los comentarios. ¡Nos vemos en la pista!

Help finding pc for sim racing

I'm really interested in a PC as xbox is very limited in many aspects but i don't have a clue about PCs besides what I learned watching LTT over covid lol. I'd mainly be playing the old assetto with mods for more cars, tracks, better graphics etc, and also ac evo, ac rally and dirt 2.

What kind of specs/parts should I be looking for when buying a beefy pc that will handle 4k/1440p or maybe 1080p triples, last for years with either minimal fiddling with or easy maintenence? Ill need a good ssd obviously, I think ddr5 ram is best for modern games but not sure, are rtx cards good for racing games or will an older ti do the job?
