Hi
i'm a currently logitech G29 user and going to switch to fanatec.
I'm going to buy the CSL DD and The CSL elite padels but for the steering wheel i don't know exactly which way i wanna go.
i'm playing mostly asseto corsa competizione. but sometimes i switch to assetto corsa, project cars 2, forza, formula 1, if i feel like dirt 2.
for the moment i'm in love of that ClubSport Steering Wheel Porsche 911 GT3 R V2.
Or should i rather go an other way and like a formula wheel ? i have 550 euro for steering but thats my max now.
Best regards

I also play a lot of different racing style games, and I would definitely say get the gt3 whee if you really like that one. First, if you really like that one, nothing else will substitute and buyers remorse sucks. Second, being that the gt3 wheel is for the most part round and whole, unlike the bowtie shape of an F1 wheel, it is easier, and more enjoyable to use with more disciplines of racing(that is my opinion). Don’t get me wrong I love my F1 wheel, but really only for F1 racing. Everything else, I use my round wheels.
Thanks for the advice.
The "Clubsport V2" means that bundle has the $350 Clubsport Universal Hub V2 for Xbox. If you only use PC you can wait for the Podium Hub bundle to come back which will be at least $100 cheaper.
Seems You like most GT cars.
I would buy CSL Elite Steering Wheel McLaren GT3 V2
Save 350 eur and think what is Your next product.
That wheel is just superb for it price and works great also for F1 and other open wheelers.
I'd echo this comment. The McLaren rim should be great for GT and Formula style racing. With the money you save, you could go and buy the WRC rim as well for your rally games or anything where you prefer a round rim, and still come in under your budget.
Thanks all for the advice. all very good advice. and i thought very well and watched videos yesterday all night on what i should do.
And i just ordered and still went for the porche wheel. i still feel i'm going to be happy with that and going to be having lots of fun. in acc and future gt style games like forza. i'm not a huge fan anymore in F1 so i'm thinking about letting that past by. and maybe in the future yeah we see what happens.
One thing is also weight, Porche bundle is 1940g and McLaren V2 1090g.
2kg is pretty much with 5Nm but no problem when weight is 1kg.
There´s pretty big difference...I had CSL Elite and compared wheels with different weight.
8Nm, I don´t know...I have DD1 and there is torque enough also for heavier wheels.
Wait why would you get the CSL elite pedals and not the new CSL pedals?? I'm thinking of just getting the base CSL DD, boost kit, new CSL pedals, and clamp and wait for a wheel to come out until October, but If I was to order a wheel I would probably get the McLaren GT3 wheel.
Not sure what to do let me know if I am missing anything I need to get started and any recommendations you might have.
I really like the BMW GT3 wheel but not sure on the price and release (by end of the month?)...
have the boost kit, not really worried abouth weight really.
Went for the clubsport v3 pedals instead.
If you mean the new GT3 wheel its going to cost a lot because its a real steering wheel for in a real racing car.
