Default ECCI service

Some words about the service what i got so far from ECCI: very high standard support which i got via mail from John during my decision process, he was answering all my (sometimes maybe even stupid) questions even Saturday, Sunday, from the company and also from his home i guess, since couple of mails received from his most probably private e-mail address. I am amazed with this support, i never experienced such before, made big part in my decision also to purchase from them, that i am sure if i will have any trouble, question or i will be in a position i will need quick help, i will get it from them.

Thanks again John!

I like these ECCI guys more and more. John was even giving me some advices based on his experience related to documentation handling with the customs when i will recieve my boxes, not to be cheated by the officers, and pay higher tax amount then is right.

It is very much clear, that they are dealing with their customers with the same manner after purchasing as before, not just interested to receive the money and forget your name...

Bravo guys, keep it up that way!

Default Reviewing the ECCI 6000 GTS

Hi guys,

Yes, my set arrived yesterday!

First part of the review will be very much incomplete, since i cant try it out yet, i am at home in Hungary, and my PC gave up, i am writing now from my company laptop.

First impression: WOW.......!!!!!

The whole set is 27 kg (!), and the very first time i opened the boxes, what everywhere i found is just pure quality... I was like a big child at christmas, opening one box after another, finding new wonderful presents

Each and every piece is built for lifetime, this i can say without even using them. The weight says already a lot, there is no any cost cutting in the amount of materials they put in the components. From all parts one thing is shouting to you: i was made to last forever in the highest possible quality human brain can imagine!

Just one example: the pedals metal thickness is 6mm, the wheel base is 9mm rock solid metal......
The paddle set is also a piece of art, they are operated also with a spring like the pedals, and they are not switching a normal electrical switch, but 2 metal parts are getting connected at the end of the movement, which is bringing the signal that you moved the paddle. Huh...

The finishing, painting, wheel leather sewing, everything is just top notch!

Maybe i will have also a very easy solution to have my G25 shifter connected, on the wheel there is a spare DB-9 connector for additional peripherials, i mail-ed already ECCI guys if this is compatible with the G25 shifter, if yes then in 2 seconds i wil have a shifter as well, i hope so....
ooops, update, i got a quick reply to my mail from John at ECCI (it is 01.00 AM there now....)
"I am certain that the wiring in the Logitech shifter will not work with our electronics. We do not recommend trying to connect the two because the Logitech shifter has its own power circuit and this may conflict with the power in the HDUSB interface."


I just cant erase the smile from my face, without even trying the whole thing out!


p.s.: i was sleeping with my 29mm Grant wheel, like a 5 years old boy with his teddy bear.... (yeah i know, i will be 30 in a month, but pssssst.... lol)

Wow Neo, that is some serious kit. It looks much more solid than anything I have seen so you'll have to work very hard to break it. It's amazing how far PC simulation has progressed.
Hope this doesn't make you any faster or we'll all have to get one to keep up. Looking forward to your comments after it settles in.

Wow, looks very complete!

Is there also an option to take the wheel and pedals from your real car and install the ECCI there?
