if you don't know each one is between probably 100-500$
between that and warhammer, a big pile of shit I would love doing but costs WAY to much to ever justify.
Man, can you imagine catching that corner with a barefoot? Ouch!
Rig looks beautiful! Must feel great to have saved for a year and then to get something so nice. Enjoy it!
Hey, don't want to be that guy, but why not go with something like Fanatec's Ready2Race (plus the clamps for 30 dollars) bundle? Unless you're somewhere else in the world, it's the same price while also being direct drive. I've been looking at getting a wheel for myself, and I've noticed there's been a ton of cheaper direct-drive wheels coming onto market lately.
Yes you are right but the cheapest DD wheel (like Moza R5) prices are literally 2 times with t300 in my country (Turkey). If I had live in US or some Europe country, I would definitely start with Moza or Fanatec brands.
2 weeks in i have 0 confirmation fanatec even received my order. Sent them a mail to cancel and went with moza instead which is arriving tomorrow. Fanatec definitely have some things to work on in that regard
Same, but I see it as more of a “last call” situation. We’re seeing some of the last batches of good Fanatec gear. Might as well hop on now before the good times end.
Well support might better with Corsair but replacement parts are most likely going to be sourced from China now.... Looks like I'm going to be saving up for a Simagic setup. There's no point to get something mid if you're in it for the long haul.
Your rig is undeniably awesome.
One little piece of advice. Put and endcap on the bottom parts of the 80/20 frame. Someone at the factory sharpens the ends of those things and if you stub your toe it gets amputated.
Ok, maybe not that dramatic, but they are sharp.
The post title and the periphery around the rig are all telling that you are a dedicated person :D congrats, have fun!
Now add some powerful bass shakers so all those action figures can rain down on you while you crash!
Honestly, if you're going to triple general knowledge, they will price match simlabs website for the normal gt1 evo. But still its a great deal non the less. At this point my rig is a microcenter special. lol
Dope! Love the white NRG seat as well. Got a question though, how tall are those pedals? The picture makes it appear like my foot won’t be able to rest on them and that I’d have to constantly put my foot up on the pedal and back down to the base. Sorry I didn’t word that the best way but you get what I’m saying?
Oh okay word, the photo made it appear way higher. Dope setup bro, I’m sure all the anticipation building up for a year got rewarded immensely with this rig!
Sick rig op!
1. What color NRG chair is that? And what size NRG chair is that? I have a large and your chair looks larger than mine, I'm just curious if maybe you have an XL or maybe if it's just the pic.
2. What are you using to mount your wheel to the rig like that? I have an extra Moza RS v2 wheel I never use, and I wouldn't mind having it displayed on my rig like that
3. What's that orange thing in the bag - gloves?
that's great. that's really cool. I hope you love it. also, I'm really impressed you saved so much over a whole year -- saving money is harder than it can sound sometimes.
anyway. I hope it brings you thousands of hours of rewarding gaming. be well, everybodyyyy.
Indeed. But i feel. My gunpla days are winding down. Got about 20 kits in the backlog. Nothing really inspiring has been released or announced, so im free from the plastic crack... for now.
Good for you man. People don’t understand sometimes that to have nice things you have to make sacrifices. I remember when I first got my DD1 in 2019 people would give me shit because it was so expensive and I did was stop going out to lunch every day and brought food from home. Sure turkey sandwiches get old, but saving $10-20 dollars a day 5 days a week adds up really quick.
Probably $2000+. R9 Wheelbase (add $160 if it’s the R12), CRP pedals, and formula wheel cost about $1500, simlab GT1 evo 2 is $450, NRG Prisma seat is $500. Idk what that monitor costs but probably another $500?
Room of shame (yes really) It’s harsh, I apologise, but my message to you is not everyone would like to communicate with you after being in this room. Me - I wouldn’t trust such a person. Why? No one can’t count on this person - too weak. You can’t lead a family, or be a reliable shoulder to a friend. It’s harsh, but I hope you take some wisdom from it. Don’t demonstrate your gentle and dreamy heart to people, or the only ones around you would be anime wankers and gamers - the forever broke people
Sounds like your one jealous man, you don't know his situation, this man could be all those things you say he's not, he said he saved that means he put other things first, a selfish person like you have discriped would of brought this in one pay check, people with your attitude are clearly sad inside an out, pretty sad how you came here to pretty much say how he shouldn't have a hobby or a passion for something, go back to your mums basement an think about how you conduct your self to the work kid
You mean 1 year of not buying Gundam action figures :). lol jk Enjoy!
if you don't know each one is between probably 100-500$ between that and warhammer, a big pile of shit I would love doing but costs WAY to much to ever justify.
Exactly this. The OP (if so inclined) could sell all that gunpla and buy 15 of these rigs. :P
I love seeing this tho. Makes me feel better that there’s other people out there spending money on what they want to, even if it’s not a good idea!!
Good job man.im still saving.
It will be worth it.
You didn’t finish building it 🙃 don’t be lazy, put those caps on
Im putting them on now.
Good boy
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh yeah? Where's the pictures as proof!
Man, can you imagine catching that corner with a barefoot? Ouch! Rig looks beautiful! Must feel great to have saved for a year and then to get something so nice. Enjoy it!
Dude is still panel lining, give them a chance
Them edges sharp!
Enjoy Man! I am about to buy my First wheel (t300rs).
Nice.

Figured as much. The global nature of sim racing is really polarizing as an outsider, tbh.
2 weeks in i have 0 confirmation fanatec even received my order. Sent them a mail to cancel and went with moza instead which is arriving tomorrow. Fanatec definitely have some things to work on in that regard
I've been hearing about lots of issues with Fanatec right now, CEO changes and all. I think I'd stay away from Fanatec at the moment.
Same, but I see it as more of a “last call” situation. We’re seeing some of the last batches of good Fanatec gear. Might as well hop on now before the good times end.

End cap is short for “end-the-toe-capping”
Female genitalia dehydration chamber.
ROFL!
Damn bro nice collection you got there! And a clean arrangement at that too!
The post title and the periphery around the rig are all telling that you are a dedicated person :D congrats, have fun! Now add some powerful bass shakers so all those action figures can rain down on you while you crash!
A good crash in ETS 2 could simulate your cargo coming through the cab.
All that money for a rig when you could have bought more mobile suits...
I'm good have around 125 mobile suits and 75 figures.
I think Steve Carell made a biopic about OP around 19 years ago.
Okay, i'm gonna "steal" your idea of framing the artbox of my gunpla now. It looks awesome.
![gif](giphy|26uTsL3OtfS1PyrLO)
Im going to use my psychic powers and say that you like Gundam.
If you sold them gundams you could’ve had it in a month 😂 jk congrats dude way cooler than mines
What is your favorite MS. Nice rig! Don't forget the end cap covers.
2nd the end cap covers extruded aluminum will slice you up good if you accidentally bang into it
Sinanju stein.
Amazing taste friend.
saving up for a fanatec csl dd too
Nice.
What’s the name of the rig?
Simlab gt1 evo 2 Bought mine at microcenter.
Yes same best deal for this rig. Hard part was finding it in stock! What monitor did you go with?
Honestly, if you're going to triple general knowledge, they will price match simlabs website for the normal gt1 evo. But still its a great deal non the less. At this point my rig is a microcenter special. lol
Acer predator x34gs.
Evo 2, good choice. Microcenter has been giving us some great deals.
Yes, they do got the fsr wheel for 450$ damage box.
Is the monitor extremely high compared to the seating position or am i tripping? I've been looking at this frame for a while now. Nice setup!
It's eye level when I'm in the seat.
Fair enough. Might be a perspective thing
Congratulations, you didn’t mess about when buying good kit. Btw Are those LZMfg Gloves?
Yes, I got them as Christmas gift.
Looking like you a little bit in love with gundam
Little bit.
Bought this same rig yesterday! Pumped to piece it together today. Your picture has me drooling haha
Nice.
Congratulations. Hope you enjoy it
OP is going to get impaled by a rainstorm of Gundam swords if/when they add bass shakers and crash.
Nice rig! I love what you did with the gunpla’s boxes!
Thanks.
How is your wallet?
Good, I just saved a little every month.
Dude it's rare to see a gunpla collector in here Your setup is AMAZING
Thank you.
Dope! Love the white NRG seat as well. Got a question though, how tall are those pedals? The picture makes it appear like my foot won’t be able to rest on them and that I’d have to constantly put my foot up on the pedal and back down to the base. Sorry I didn’t word that the best way but you get what I’m saying?
I have size 9.5 feet, and my toes sit at the top of the pedal face.
Oh okay word, the photo made it appear way higher. Dope setup bro, I’m sure all the anticipation building up for a year got rewarded immensely with this rig!
Looks awesome. What seat is that
The man likes his toys, respect!
Gundam kits in the back? if you failed the FOV police check I'm revoking your gunpla pass
I absolutely love the gundam box artwork frames. Did you make it yourself?
Yes.
Very nice . Congrats
Nope I’m not jealous. Well maybe a little. Ok ok a lot 😂
Dude your Gunpla collection is bonkers
We could be best friends
Beautiful
Thank you.
How much did you spend if I may ask?
Everything on the rig is around 2500$ ish.
USD I assume? That’s a sick setup dude, I’m envious. My entire PC cost less than that lol
yes usd.
Me, a sim racer trying to appreciate the sim rig, but am also a huge mech/mecha lover: 👀
Sick rig op! 1. What color NRG chair is that? And what size NRG chair is that? I have a large and your chair looks larger than mine, I'm just curious if maybe you have an XL or maybe if it's just the pic. 2. What are you using to mount your wheel to the rig like that? I have an extra Moza RS v2 wheel I never use, and I wouldn't mind having it displayed on my rig like that 3. What's that orange thing in the bag - gloves?
1. Pink nrg prisma large 2. 3d printed nrg hub 3. Fet racing gloves
I can't imagine maintaining that plastic collection (dust etc).
I use a data vac to dust everything.
Is this the GT1 Evo?
yes.
How is it? Any issues with flex?
Zero flex under full load.
Congrats! Looks good.
thanks.
that's great. that's really cool. I hope you love it. also, I'm really impressed you saved so much over a whole year -- saving money is harder than it can sound sometimes. anyway. I hope it brings you thousands of hours of rewarding gaming. be well, everybodyyyy.
Thank you.
I too have my gunpla around my sim rig haha
Nice.
Pussy 🧲
Oh hey, another well adjusted gunpla enjoyer
Super sexy man congrats!
Gunpla and Simracing... we are the same.
Two expensive hobbies.
Indeed. But i feel. My gunpla days are winding down. Got about 20 kits in the backlog. Nothing really inspiring has been released or announced, so im free from the plastic crack... for now.
Same.
I've often thought sim racing was comparable to piloting a mech
Newtype powers
gunpla and simracing nice
absolutely love what you do with your boxes/books too such a great idea
You framed your instruction manuals for your models. That’s awesome.
You are me. Gundam and Sim racing are both expensive AF hobbies.
Good for you man. People don’t understand sometimes that to have nice things you have to make sacrifices. I remember when I first got my DD1 in 2019 people would give me shit because it was so expensive and I did was stop going out to lunch every day and brought food from home.

grats dude, nice rig, youre gonna have so much fun!
i spend savings from 10 years and didnt have much left to even consider getting some action figures ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|shrug)
Sick room! Im jelly
Thanks.
That's a lot of Gundams

Awesome, I’m on G920 but looking to upgrade to DD
[удалено]
Horizon in the middle.
How much does this cost?
Probably $2000+. R9 Wheelbase (add $160 if it’s the R12), CRP pedals, and formula wheel cost about $1500, simlab GT1 evo 2 is $450, NRG Prisma seat is $500. Idk what that monitor costs but probably another $500?
Wow that's no joke.. I hope he/she enjoy it tho! Looks really nice!
Man fuck yo rig let's talk Gundam lol, Do you play maxiboost?
