Seems a good price for a G27

[Prof]

Hi Chaps,

Not a lot of time to race recently but hopefully this will change for the better soon.

I just noticed this at Dabs. It is the cheapest I can remember seeing for a while. I hope someone finds it useful.

Oooooh thats tempting 

Been tracking a few G27's on ebay as my old DFP is starting to fail and they all go for higher than this price so might be worth it.

Thanks Prof

Finally it reaches a reasonable price.

My G25 is still going strong after 3 or 4 years. Logitech defiantly made these things well.

Typical got mine a few weeks back when the old g25 bust £209 then

Well as Fanatec arnt deleivering till end of august i'll need to hold on to mine for a little while longer.

That is much more reasonable...but no sequential shifter so its a no go for me.  My G25 shifter is about finished.  need to find a replacement.

On 'inside sim racing' a week or 2 ago they had a G27 sequential shifter mod that looked quite good.

$40 if I remember correctly.

It's not that laggy-band mod is it?!

That looks pretty good.  I'll think I'll wait until my shifter finally gives it up.  Just managed to get through a race where I didnt have gear problems so theres life in the old girl yet.

Well i bit the bullet and got one 

Came Monday but didn't have a chance to try it till last night and first impressions are very good

Coming from a DFP to this is a big step forward, feels soooo much smoother and i could catch slides much better ( it felt like it anyway ) and just felt more precise. I thought i'd struggle to get to the same level with the new wheel but only after 5-10 laps i was hitting new PB's in the Corvette at Road America so im well chuffed. I was only running FFB 3 in iracing with the DFP which felt ok for me but with the G27 i felt it needed more and 8 or 9 felt really good.

Buying this and the new content when its out means its bread and water for the month though

Just bought it! Bit of an impulse purchase but my G25 gave up ffb last night in the F188 race so thats my justification.....

...even though it was a software fault i'm sure and worked when I reloaded

Mine arrived yesterday Pedals are very wonky on me G25, which isn't bad seeing how long I've had them, and this seems a better deal than buying pedals separately. Be a while before I use them mind.

According to Gazza, I can't wait to be much faster

According to Gazza, I can't wait to be much faster

If you had a G25 before then i wouldnt think its much different, but for me coming from a DFP its a big improvement. 

[purdie]

well i bought the G27 and it served me well for the Suzuka race and now it permanently is 10-20 degrees off centre. A quick browse on the web doesn't look encouraging... packing it up and returning it is such a pain in the backside....

...only positive is I still have ye ole faithful G25 sitting in the other room, not going to put it on eBay just yet.

Any ideas of is this a hardware fault??
