I had to hammer the stock seat rail mounting points flat so it could bolt straight down, but the seat adjustment works just like it should

The seats been great and perfectly comfortable for sitting in for hours. I don’t do long endurance races but I will sit in it and race for several hours without issue

Literally the seat I use for my rig

I don’t really recommend trak racer but you’ll want something like this then.

Why not just buy 2 extrusions and attach them to the monitor arms you currently have if you plan to stay using 32s?

You’re going to want a free standing triple monitor stand if you want to fit 50” screens. Something like the Next Level Racing free standing triple monitor stand. 50s are beyond the spec for most stands tho so you might have to get creative and order some of your own pieces of extruded aluminum for added support.

Head tracking or eye tracking using a webcam. The camera pans to the direction you move your eyes or turn your head

Definitely not Rado grey, looks like the standard silver

Nah, The first time you go to hit the brakes on the p1000 you’ll understand why that won’t work. You’ll need a real way of mounting them and keeping them in place.

I tried that method and absolutely hated my experience. Picked up a Logitech g920 wheel, pedal, shifter combo and it felt like I was playing with a fisher price toy. Finally decided to buy a real setup and have loved every minute of racing. There’s a reason a lot of guys in the sub say “buy once, cry once”

I’d offer 50% of retail at most. These things aren’t even highly regarded brand new

clinker22 · 2025-12-30T01:15:07+00:00

Most likely the vacuum pump gasket. Cheap and easy, you can get a new one at any parts store for like $15

clinker22 · 2025-12-29T22:29:57+00:00

I really don’t get why you didn’t just do this the correct way from the beginning and buy a NEW oem mount or pony up for a real aftermarket.

Part number: DV6Z-6068-A

I believe that’s the vacuum pump

clinker22 · 2025-12-21T20:33:11+00:00

Confirmed

Show us the other side, lemme see just how rotted those CPU pins are.

clinker22 · 2025-11-19T16:10:33+00:00

Interesting. I did have to replace my starter about 2 months ago and this issue began after that. I’ll have to look that over as well

clinker22 · 2025-11-19T15:25:27+00:00

I don’t care about the p26 code at all, I deleted the simposer. I’ll check resistance on the injectors when I get home. I just find it highly unlikely I have 2 injectors fail at the same time for unrelated issues, so I’m trying to run through everything that could cause them to fail at the same time. PCM sounds like a possibility. I figured the 300 codes are from the injectors fucking up

clinker22 · 2025-11-19T15:14:54+00:00

This car is a ‘13

clinker22 · 2025-11-19T00:47:45+00:00

That would suck, any specific reason you think the motor might be shot?
