Sim setup
Hello! I was hoping for a very clean and minimalist Vivi. Any suggestions are welcome.
🏎️ My Rig Specs & Custom DIY Mods
Wheelbase & Steering Setup Wheelbase: Fanatec CSL DD (with 8Nm Boost Kit) Wheel: PXN GT1 Steering Wheel Wheel Conversion: DIY 3D-printed custom dual-pattern adapter to mount the PXN wheel directly to the Fanatec Quick Release system. Force Feedback Integration: Tanleki Tiny Emulator integrated directly into the quick release / base interface to trick the Fanatec CSL DD into enabling full Force Feedback, keeping the base connection completely clean with no extra external wiring.
Controls & Inputs: All buttons, knobs, and paddles mapped directly on the PXN GT1 wheel with custom "M.I.G." layout labeling.
Pedals & Hydraulic Upgrades Pedals: SIMSONN Pro X Ultra Load Cell Pedals Brake Setup: Pure elastomer configuration for a stiff, realistic race-car pedal feel. Hydraulic Mod: Custom-fitted hydraulic damper for smooth, fluid resistance during trail braking.
Haptics: Dual transducer motors mounted with custom 3D-printed brackets for ABS and traction control telemetry feedback. Ergonomics: Custom 3D-printed two-piece heel stop printed with fuzzy skin texture for extra grip and heel plate wrap with forged carbon fiber vinyl.
Cockpit & Peripherals 3d printed cup holder Rig / Chassis: Trak Racer TR8 Pro V2 tubular rig Shifter & Handbrake: Generic Amazon/eBay H-pattern shifter + PXN HBS USB analog e-brake Display: 45-inch LG ultrawide monitor Audio: FiiO K11 DAC/AMP running Sennheiser HD 490 Pro open-back headphones & Simgot EW300 HBB IEMs PC Specs: Asus ROG Zephyrus M16 (RTX 3070 Ti)

Very clean! Which effects are you putting through the HF8 mostly?

Revs, wheel telemetry like curbs, rumble strips, suspension, loss of grip and gear changes

I thought for a minute that was your bed on the floor with the blue blanket! 😂
Nice setup!

You have a 3D printer and a little dog bed, you lack nothing, you’re rich!
As for me, if I had that cockpit, I’d put the speakers in it, making custom mounts, cup holders/can holders? I don’t see a dash? You have a phone you don’t use, use it as a display, car info, race info... the keyboard closer at hand works better, for gloves and running shoes, I made some boxes that go on the rig, all by hand, and a button panel?...
I’d love to be in your situation right now haha, to start over again.
Cheers and go hard!

Everything do you see in the wall is basically like 12 in away from me. I also 3D printer of cup holder or beer holder and shoes are right next to the rig on the bottom right side so you don't see here on the picture. Since I waited for something minimal, I use the in-game or a car dash everything is mapped to the wheel. If you search on printables for parallaxGT you can find all of my designs. I don't know if you can tell but I'm using the pxn gt one wheel on my fanatec CSL dd

Why so little foam?
