[danielarmenio]

@AleksandrsLV Many people does it! I own a G27 now, and boy I miss playing with seq. gearbox! H box is fun, but only with some cars... Paddles are nice for competitiveness. But for fun, sequential gearbox ftw!

[ftpaddict]

Felt-covered racing gloves on a leather steering wheel. Ridiculous.

[DeckedGFX]

um, why exactly do you have gloves on?

[pawelbrodnica]

seats from Ford Probe :)

[forid200]

AWSOME!

[bibi550systems]

2 shifters FTW... but sequential shifting???

[Nicoehiggi]

[thepricylon]

@MikeBell2007 ok, how much did you pay to get these wires and idno...something to get it work??

[Instructinator]

@thepricylon i wanna do that too

[cawilliams188]

@thepricylon =( would be sweet on gt5 come on kaz

[JasonMann8]

fukin legit too eh

[gtconway86]

Should hook a fan up to the speedo on a variable resistor and aim it at your face for real time wind yo!

[DanFrederiksen]

nice although the mdf box for the instruments isn't elegant. plus bring the screen closer and change the lighting in the room

[potasiu2]

more like tachy'o meter

[heykuckma]

people with bad language should be BANNED from youtube, FOR LIFE .....

[thepricylon]

@heykuckma Umad? Racist?

[nblracer325]

Can you please show how to do that? Or at least give me a creditable link you used to do so? I'm getting a wheel for X-mas and I have an '85 camaro gauge cluster that I would like the hook up..

[MikeBell2007]

@nblracer325 symprojects[dot]com

[nblracer325]

@MikeBell2007 Thanks, I'm glad to have the website .. Another thing, using the stuff on that website, would I be able to say wire up a 85 camaro gauge cluster to get all the gauges to work besides just the RPM and spedometer.. (Temperature, Fuel, Battery, and oil pres.)?

[MikeBell2007]

@nblracer325 speedo and tacho must have digital inputs (3 wires) for more information go to the website I have given to you and check their forums.

[7bestube]

pc or playstation,how did you connect speedometer and rev counter???

sorry for my bad english

[RanDomeProductions1]

Are u The Stig from topgear?

and how did u attach the speedometer?

[troxaaaaaa]

u.u he wanna show his alpinestars gloves ! stfu

[kurtgalan79]

ford probe shair

[lass8477]

Which speedo's did you use, meaning from what car, and can you make a video on how to connect them to the PC, and set them up?

[danielsong25]

Dear Santa...

[MCgangsta11]

how u attach the speedometer to the computer?

[greenhornet123]

LOL nerd

[kicedz12]

MONITOR FAIL!

[golumpygo]

kinda small screen, dont you think?

[theguru18]

hi nice set up

are both guages runing of rev burners? 1 or 2 or is it sumting outher?

thanks

[MikeBell2007]

@theguru18 yes, both are rev burners, two, one for each device.

[MrSake555]

man nice wheel

[TheBmaks]

а перчатки нафиг?

[BehannaKC]

lol are the gloves really necessary?

[MikeBell2007]

@BehannaKC Yes.

[BehannaKC]

@MikeBell2007 nice! lol

[AlejjSi]

@BehannaKC Asking the same question...I hate driving with gloves :D

[rastamees]

ahaha the dude wears gloves

[AligarhNS]

seat Ford Probe, like me

[curtisfowkes1]

ill hav ur gloves m8 i could use them for go-karting

[TheEmadelhaddad]

my like for your driving

[d121f7]

nice driving bro... very smooth with no sudden movement.

[mrsqonk]

@d121f7 that's because it don't move I guess..

[BetoPRO1]

please, really please; tell us how did u connect de sppeddo and tachometer¡¡¡

[at0micsheep]

is the rev counter accurate? I noticed you a re nowhere near the redline each time before shifting

[MikeBell2007]

@at0micsheep Rev counter measures up to 16.000 rpm, redline in this car is 11.000 rpm

[AleksandrsLV]

who the hell buys a g25 for sequential shifting?

[MikeBell2007]

@AleksandrsLV This car uses sequential. In cars with manual gear box I use the lightning sst H pattern.

[AleksandrsLV]

@MikeBell2007 okay that makes sense lol

[sailesh2001]

@AleksandrsLV bitch its a g27

[AleksandrsLV]

@sailesh2001 It's a G25.

[sailesh2001]

@AleksandrsLV Metal flappies, and its a 6 speed shifter

its a G27

[AleksandrsLV]

@sailesh2001 My mistake. But was it really needed to call me a bitch because I got it wrong? I take it 2001 was when you were born because you talk like a ten year old. It's easy to mistake it especially if you just glance at the steering wheel. I'm not a driving sim anorak who would spot something like that. My point was why get the equipment that can do H shifting etc and only use the sequential setting. The fact it's either G25 or G27 is actually irrelevant in this case.

[sailesh2001]

@AleksandrsLV lol no bro

17

and me and my friends were messin around on youtube and trollin comments

but yeah, i didnt catch it my friend did :P

[daehelttaR]

@AleksandrsLV pretty sure that car in real life would have a sequential gearbox......either paddles or just like that.....but hey maybe its manual with a clutch and shit lol

[QuertrGTRR]

@AleksandrsLV

maybe he always uses the shift-method the real car has...

[iNs3CuRePL]

@AleksandrsLV Would you drive this car with a H-shifter? I think not.

[AleksandrsLV]

@iNs3CuRePL tbh even as a car enthusiast I'd have no interest to drive a car like that anyway, so I guess I fail to see the point.

[iNs3CuRePL]

@AleksandrsLV I dont like racing race cars in games, simulators too but what Im trying to say is when you using this type of car you have to use the sequential gearbox.

[jimihendrixtribute]

sequential shifter is for pussies lol

[tiagoblanquet]

A larger TFT screen is cheap

[latrays]

 young stig in training

[Johnysupraa]

how can you connect the instrument Panel to computer??? :\

[Sladur4e901]

how you made this bro is SUPER COOOL!

[SEORankingSuccess]

Mind blown- high level of want

[Alikrom]

what if u have a car that goes faster then 260 km/h?

[MikeBell2007]

@Alikrom Needle just stops at 260km/h

[Alikrom]

@MikeBell2007 u should have a speedo from a bugatti xD

[Anonymous3232512]

love the gloves

[domkanh]

do you wear helmet ??

[TheVenomsupremacy]

@domkanh HAHAHAHAHAHHA

[Thepockets88]

@domkanh

I actually would like to know this too. do you wear a jump suit when you race also? i mean, anything to make it more realistic right?

[Janupoiss]

How do you connected speedo and tacho meter :D ?

[corrystile]

Can i use it with ps3 or xbox?

[MikeBell2007]

@corrystile No.

[inspektura43]

WOW!This is amazing.

[corrystile]

How i connect the speedometer to the steering wheel?

[hootsmangreen]

So does the rev burner control the speedo as well as the rev counter or just the rev counter?

[MikeBell2007]

@hootsmangreen You need 2 rev burners, one for speedo and another for revs.

[EverySocondOfMine]

zandvoort ftw

[davydoo81]

That's actually a XJ12 speedo, 6 cyl had 220km/h speedos and V12s had 260km/h speedos...

[N1kejustdoit]

man ok u are great for doing this... but i don't understand the importance of the gloves... i mean wtf man?

[DjAligaator1]

what system is computer between speedometer ?

[thisisbravo6]

No seatbelt? Click It Or Ticket hahah

[yoogrant]

theres no hand on the steering wheel in the game your playing

[Ahmedissokool]

could you tell me how to connect a car speedometer to the computer plz

[astoncic]

did you used rev burner for both speedometer and tachometer ? I mean 1 board for the tacho and 1 board for speedo ? Thanks and great job.

[brapboys503]

Now that's a nice setup. Although a nice 1st-gen Prelude Si driver's seat would be a really cool addition, and may I mention very comfortable?

[TekseMester]

you could write a list of which parts of the controller you do that?

[TekseMester]

What is the mechanism that controls the speedometer and the tachometer and how did you do

[mpelletier92]

I have a question: What kind of wood did you use? Thank you and btw, you have a nice setup.

[MikeBell2007]

@mpelletier92 It's called MDF.

[halfmumi]

@mpelletier92 it is called MDF and creates serious dust particules-you need outdoors to cut it and a mask.

[MikeBell2007]

@gab32816 Iracing

[ausiekoda]

hey i really love the wheel cockpit can you make vid on how to make speedo and rpms work and the cockpit love the wheel

[Wedge4Life]

why not invest in a bigger monitor.....

btw where did you score the chair from? ... i was thinking of getting one, this office chair hurts my back 

[BhonMdaWKalas]

Guapisimo XD cuando dices que me vas a montar uno igual a mi? XDXDXD

Por cierto me encantaria probarlo con GT5...

[00TRK00]

Ese Mikelll, como se lo curra el hombre este, ahora no tienes excusa pa no ganar la liga con BRM ;)

Saludos

[306almera]

[DiSCiPuL0]

Que guapo loco, ya te falta algo tipo Frex y ale xD Un saludete!

[DW1Jett]

very cool! What board runs the tach and speeo?

[MikeBell2007]

@DW1Jett rev burner from symprojects

[iirmantass3]

@MikeBell2007 you needed only 1 board?

[MikeBell2007]

@iirmantass3 Nope, 2 boards, one for each indicator.

[iirmantass3]

@MikeBell2007 And for electical speedometer only?

[MikeBell2007]

@iirmantass3 Yes, only electric, not mechanic

[iirmantass3]

@MikeBell2007 Thanks.

[sunnyjason]

prettty cool
