Racing Chair

I am thinking about getting a racing wheel but I am not sure on a good one. I am on a budget of about €250 and would need stand to be included in that orice so this rules out g25/7

I was think of getting http://www.fanatec.de/webshop/new_eu/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=99&session=true

Does anyone know what these are like e.g feel solid pedals hold together etc. Or can anyone recommend a different wheel but not the DFGT as I want a clutch.

second hand G25 or 27 with a wheelstand pro is the way to go. fanatec are supposed to be just as good but more unreliable.

I did think of that but they still go for a good bit of money. Thanks for the suggestion.

Does anyone have any actual experience with this wheel and maybe plans to a build because I saw some great diy but cannot find it again.

Also reading a lot that the G27 doesn't work properly with GT5 and this will be one of the main racing games I will be using this for.

And is there a chance that some games will simply not be compatible with either of these wheels.

Buy the G25, and the wheelstand pro.
Save up then if you want a chair. The chair isn't the most important bit in this setup

the update coming next week is adding full support for the g25 and 27. its not true anyway. i have a g25 and it works perfect, i could even map the buttons so i presume the 27 is the same.
