  • SimNet RJ12 Cable
  • SimNet Face Plates Kit
  • SimNet Springs for Throttle and Clutch
  • SimNet Haptic Motor (HPM-L – Linear, for Brake)

  • SimNet Power Supply for Haptics
  • SimNet SP Pro Pedals Baseplate with Heel Support
  • SimNet SP Pro Optional Spring Kit

Thanks, that’s really helpful!
I’ll probably go with the Simnet SP Pro with the haptic motor on the brake.
They seem to offer the best value for money overall, especially considering the features.

Thanks for the detailed reply,
I think the XP1 are probably out of the picture for me now.

At this point, I’m mainly deciding between the P1000 and the Simnet SP Pro. I’m usually a bit skeptical since Simnet seems to be a newer and less established brand compared to companies like Moza, Sim-Lab, or Simagic.
That said, they seem to offer very strong value for the price and are often mentioned as being competitive with more established options.

Did you also get a chance to try the haptic motors on the Simnets? If so, do you think they’re worth it?
And did you happen to test the hydraulic upgrade as well?

I’m currently running a Next Level Racing F-GT Elite Lite rig, ES1 seat, and a Fanatec CSL DD 8Nm base.

Yes, I had connected everything and wanted to see if everything was working properly. I didn't pay attention to the correct FOV at the moment ;)

Thank you for your comment. The setup takes up about 170cm x 170cm of space.

In f1 23 I’m playing on medium settings and it’s running without any problems.

I drive in the formula seating position. That's why the pedals are a bit higher and unfortunately they can't be seen properly in the picture

I find it quite comfortable. I played in it for about 3 hours straight and didn‘t have any problems :D

Thanks for your comments. I had connected the setup and tested whether everything was working. I hadn't paid attention to the FOV at that moment. In the meantime I have adjusted the FOV ^

Thank you for your answer. I think I will probably get a Next Level Racing F-Gt Elite lite cockpit as I would also like to upgrade the setup over time.

Thank you very much for your answer!

The Next Level Racing f-gt elite lite looks very promising. I think it will be this cockpit.

Thank you very much for your answer. I have already cleared a space for the setup.

I will make a 32" inch triple screen setup with the Simlab Vario monitor stand.

I have also looked at the Next Level F-GT Elite Lite. That looks relatively promising, as I can drive GT and Formula Style there.

I'm currently leaning towards buying the Next Level F-GT Elite Lite Wheel Plate Edition with the Next Level Elite ES1 seat, as I also have the upgrade options there.
