Looks good, maybe put a spring on that handbrake to give it some resistance when operating to make it feel more realistic?

Thanks. Yeah there is 2 under there already. But I’m looking at adding a stopper to it instead
It was planned to be mounted 90degrees like a drift/rally car but would ruin that factory look.

Thanks mate. Tell you the truth i looked at adding a hydraulic,adding a master and a blocked of valve but was faced with two problems.
1: It leaking all over the carpet and eating through it before i had a chance to see it
2: My wife after the above problem reinstating the no toys in the lounge rule again after i spilt transmission fluid on the carpet when rebuilding a 4l60e on our new white coffee table. I compromised with her about spending time with building race car and spending time with her.

Bit of an update, after throwing a small video of me having a bit of a drift on my business page it went viral and is nearly at 1,000,000 veiws

Which has prompted me to carry on building with it.

So have been running a program called SimHub, which allows you to build custom dashes and send the game data over the local network to whatever device you want.

I decided I wanted to get the cluster working (which I may still do at some stage, but instead made a race dash setup)

But instead made up a race dash instead. Still need to add a few more buttons etc but general idea is here

Also running an aftermarket Chinese tacho (update speed of mechanics is a bit slow but ok for now)

Damn straight thats what tables are for,

especially the kitchen table and the kitchen bench, and the lounge room floor, and couches, and spare bedroom beds, and the gazebo, and the Landry, and the ironing board and also the garden bench. :lol:
