ECCI Steering Wheels

[Attila Domján]

Yes Scyp, the wheel is a real race car wheel basically, you can defienetely use it also for the originally designed function as well...

[Attila Domján]

Part 2 will be very short because i am very tired: i started to assemble together the set, and at 22.30 i am finished.... (almost lol)

There is soo much adjustment options, and all of them is mechanical, unbeleivable.....
I still need to adjust it, my complete rack needed to be reorganized because of the different parameters of the wheel and the pedals, so the adjustment is far not complete yet.

I will also need an addon for the pedals for proper fixing, because the fixation wholes are not at the same positions as the rack, so i will need a metal plate or stg as a conversion.

After this all day long assembling now i am really exhausted, i do not even try out the wheel now, because then i will not sleep anything, just checked if it is working ok.. But the first feeling is: IT IS F...ING PRECISE MECHANISM!!!!

Calibration is a piece of cake, 1 min thingy.

Oh, and the pedals guys.. for the brake i assembled the Race brake upgrade: it is so stiff towards the end of the travel which i did not feel so far, not even in a real car!!! (ok, i drove only normal street cars, not race car). It is an unbeleivable feeling to the break in the game, i feel every small correction over the braking distance, although i still need to get used to it

So, thats it so far, i am going to sleep now....

If you reviews are like this: i want one as well... Looks that the guys from ECCI did an amazing job to please you.
Good service, good products, good results and a happy Neo.
Weldone mate, i hope i can still catch up now

[James Johnson]

That is absolutely true!!!
I donno my laptimes yet with the new wheel, just made out of the pits after calibration to see if it is working well, and then... sleep sleep sleep sleep...

[Attila Domján]

Okido, few days racing pause for me... In order to make the conversion plate to fix the pedals properly i had to disassemble it totally and also the rack, so no racing until this part is ready... i hope on Wednesday i will be back, at least 1 day practise for the next Mini tour round...

Offtopic: Connect the G25 and race in GTR2 with us tonight

Ok, back on topic

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

Gr Neo, very nice piece of art.

If i understand the technique you feel forces but they are mechanical, am i right.

Do these forces change during driving i mean heavy steering when low speed cornering and less heavy steering in fast corners?

[Attila Domján]

The forces are mechanically provided yes, they are absolutely independent from the game, for the same amount of steering wheel movement you always get the same forces. (the strength, progressivity, pre-load and so on you can change with applying different springs provided with the wheel).

[Attila Domján]

Aaaaaand, here is the pic of my cockpit with the ECCI set.
The pedals are not screwed down yet, i am still waiting for that plate to do it, but basically there will be no visible difference. Now just one final touch, a good shifter just for the realism (maybe the Sim-Gear one), and then i can really say, that my dream cockpit came into reality!

[Bram Hengeveld]

Haha, great work Neo, hope you will enjoy it, i am sure you do. But instead of buying a shifter you should look for something instead of that stupid chair

Love the carpet tho

[Maik Peters]

WHAHAH HOLY SHIT M8...

That is really fantastic... If i would do that ooeei ooeei oeeii

Have a lot of fun with it...

[Attila Domján]

The pedal fixation plate will be ready most probably tomorrow, so if i can assemble it fast, then maybe i will be able to join the Mini tournament race, although without any practise, but who cares...

[Peter Meijer]

... omg Neo... What are you going to do with your G25?

[Attila Domján]

I will bring it home to Hungary, to replace my black Momo there.

[Attila Domján]

My pedals are fixed in their place like in concrete, so happy racing for me finally!

[Wido Rossen]

Ooooooo men.......so hot.
Can i come and play sometime ???
I`ll promise to bring some candy........
Well...can i can i ??????? [-o<


Very Nice Neo.

[Attila Domján]

sure thing m8, hop in anytime. Ukraine, Mukachevo, phone me when you come.

[Jacco Cornelissen]

This is no simulation this is real. Looks very nice neo.. what's next ? lol =D>

[Attila Domján]

a good shifter is still missing, then i am complete.

[Maurice Hurkmans]

How was your first tourney racing experience with the ECCI set, Neo?

[Attila Domján]

cool, very precise, but i still need to get used to it, to find the right position again, i need to adjust the rack.

And the break... it is funny, it is so stiff, and i could start to practise with it only today maybe 2 hours before the race. So my leg was so tired, that in Race 1 after 2 laps my leg started to shake continuously, so from that moment onwards i was driving with shaking leg below the knees... you should have seen it...

I need some training to get some fitness into my old legs...

[Antoine Morin]

hey Neo

tell the truth ...it seems that the wall is ready to fit a crazy screen na ???


Very nice installation !!

[hetfield2k]

I'd rather see the hole in the wall behind Neo's screen filled with beer bottles (non-empties!)
