Baller.

I'd see if you can grab the center console from that car and jimmy rig the shifter into the stock location.

Someones got a lot of spare time, but I have to admit if it was in my garage I would play with it. I am still going to call you a goof ball.

Put me to shame lol. I however like having the chair in the living room but the passenger seat and dash is lol worthy!

You gotta let me know how those pedals are. Besides the shifter the pedals are the weak link mainly because they offer those sweet clubman ones.

Also did you pull this stuff off the A6 at Dayton Xenia?

Stu, these are the clubsport pedals and they came with the tuning kit. They feel fantastic. Parts are from the columbus yard.

I would consider getting the gauges to work but this is built for forza. Going to make them light up though.

BTW I got an PS2 (cable not console) extender from radio shack for the shifter. It's like six feet so more than enough to tuck it away.

Id love to try these pedals sometime!

And Marko that is a sick PC setup you have there! Is that the G27?
