how do you guys keep the steering wheel and pedals from moving around? we used to have a steering wheel but you had to kind of hold it between your legs and then leave the pedals on the floor... it was really stupid, so I threw it away.

do you have those chairs that have mounted steering wheels & Pedals?
I just attached the steering wheel to my dinner table chair, it worked ok for gt3, but now that gt4 supports 900 degree rotation, the whole chair moves when i countersteer

the pedals stay put because the driving force has little spikes that dig into the carpet...

Scot, I'm using a folding dinner tray table thingie to cramp the wheel on.

You can get one from Walmart or Target for cheap, like $10.

Finally played GT4 with my Driving Force Pro wheel. My god. This is driving bliss.

If you guys are playing GT4 with the gamepad, do give the wheel a shot. It elevates the experience to another different level.

In regular racing against 5 other opponents, the top stays up.

In solo runs or time trials, the top automatically goes down.

In PhotoTravel Mode, the top automatically goes down but theres supposely some way to make it go up or down.

hey! how'd you get a pre-04! i only saw new ones for sale

Check the Used Car Lots. You're find pre-04 S2000's and other goodies including Skylines GT-R, RX-7, Supra and M Coupe.

Sometimes you'll find one with extremely low mileage. And remember to perform an oil change right after your purchase to up the power.

There should be clamps on the bottom of your Logitech wheel.
