r/Simagic

Hello,

Im looking for some advice, I just orderd a rig with side mounting option for the wheelbase.

I'm now looking to ad a dash 8" dash to it.

But I'm not sure how I could mound this.

Does anyone have any experience / advice with this?

Hey everyone!

I'm currently considering an upgrade path and would love to hear from anyone who has made the jump from the Simagic P700 to the P1000 pedal set.

For context, I am currently playing Forza Motorsport, but I am planning to transition into more hardcore sims like Le Mans Ultimate, Project Motor Racing, RENNSPORT, Assetto Corsa Competizione, EA Sports F1 25, Automobilista 2, Assetto Corsa EVO, and potentially RaceRoom Racing Experience.

Since I want to focus more on serious sim racing, I’m looking to step up my brake modulation and overall pedal feel.

For those who upgraded:

• Brake Feel & Trail Braking: Is the load cell implementation and elastomer/spring customizability on the P1000 a noticeable step up in terms of consistency and muscle memory?
• Build & Adjustability: Do you find the stiffer base and wider adjustment options worth the extra cost?
• Upgradability: Did you end up adding the P-HPR haptics or the hydraulic kit, and did that completely change the experience for you?

Is it a "buy once, cry once" type of upgrade, or are the gains incremental compared to what the P700 offers out of the box?

Thanks in advance for the feedback!

Hey everyone,

I’m thinking about upgrading from a Fanatec CSL DD (8Nm) to a Simagic Evo 12Nm wheelbase.

My pedals are already sorted (SIMNET SP Pro), so this is purely about the wheel. For anyone who made a similar jump: is the bump in power and detail noticeable enough to justify the switch, or should I hold out for 15Nm+?

Thanks!

Hey all so a few weeks ago I was braking hard on my P500s but definitely within its operating range. Anyways, the screw that holds the pedal into the base got pulled out, stripping the female part. The foot plate on top was fine but yeah. I decided then to just move it over to a different mount until I could get a replacement.

Anyways, I emailed Simagic and after a couple pictures they said they’d send me a new plate. Great, but then I noticed, suddenly in the middle of races, the pressure calibration would just change and suddenly my full force couldn’t crack 50%. Something else must’ve broken when it was slightly detached and yeah.

So when I emailed to say yes to the new base plate, I also mentioned this, saying “there’s probably no way I can prove it so I’ll just keep changing the pressure when it happens and hopefully it’ll keep working.”

They replied asking I recalibrate and update the firmware, but after it still did it a couple races later, I told them that didn’t work.

Without asking any more questions, they just shipped me a whole new P500 pedal set. No sending mine back, no deposit, nothing.

Look it was within the legal warranty period and the screws definitely could use some better materials because they strip quite easily, but it took 2 weeks from the first email to receiving my new P500s.

The reason I have Simagic now is because I had a paddle shifter break on my MOZA KS wheel and it took 9 months to get them to fix it after sending the package to them. 9 months where I had no wheel and my $800 investment in their ecosystem was rendered worthless.

Anyways, I know this was long, but thank you. This is the professional service that should be standard with all companies.

Hey.

Does anyone know the shipping times to Europe (Estonia for me).
I am wondering if I should cancel my order and buy from EU retailer instead and just pay the extra 100 EURO.

i’ve had my Alpha Evo for around a year now. I recently left it at my house in a different state AC and everything so no overheating and came back to use it and now it will not power on. I’ve never had any issues with it before. The power brick is green and there are no visible damages to anything. The base won’t make any noises or even flicker with light almost like it’s completely dead. Does anybody have any fixes for this? Thank you.

The pedal faces are even so when I brake the brake is past the throttle and I have to release the brake to blip the throttle. I saw a video where they added washers to move the throttle further back but unfortunately I have a newer model of the pedal and that mod no longer works. How have you guys set up your pedals to heel toe? Thanks!

My PC has crashed 3 separate times in iRacing. On the event viewer it shows that Simpro Manager crashed first and then windows crashed afterwards.

Anyone have the same problem? Any know fixes?

Hello everyone.

I am thinking about purchasing a sequential shifter for drifting, I mainly do VDC drifting and drifting in general, but I also like to play beamng, and other games that require H-gate Shifter.

My main question is: If I mainly drift in assetto corsa VDC cars who use sequential shifters(At least 90% of what I do), Should I consider getting the Hybrid Shifter who features both Sequential and H-gate, or just go with the S1 Sequential only shifter? Is the sequential shifter option on the Hybrid one is good enough to satisfy and realistic?

Thanks

Been running the P700 for about a month now and tempted about the brake haptics. Mainly driving formula on iracing so ABS etc won’t be of huge importance. I race on a wheelstand so will probably stick with the P700 for a while.
Any recommendations?
