What's the feel with such a long stick? It got too loose or the shifter movement end too wide on the tip?

I made my my own shifter with range/splitter buttons to replace original from G27, but when i get to the testing process while testing with just 10cm extention i felt that the shifter itself got too loose, so i decided to don't extend more (initially i intended to do as long as you did)

Can you post pictures of it on gear 1 and 6 so i can see how distant from the center the shifter gets.

BTW it looks really good, congrats!

Looks awesome are there any good tutorials on how to do this for the TH8RS?

well first you need a place to mount it on a table, build your own, or order a mount like i did here https://www.raceroomstore.com/us/schalt ... lator.html

then you need a skrs shifter and choose the thrustmaster adapter https://csio.tech/product/skrs-official-v01 warning you here it take time for csio to deliver your shift knob

next you need a extension if you decide to get the shiftier here http://www.empirechromeshop.com/search. ... +extension pick whatever one you want

next when you get the skrs shifter do this if you got the extension https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2WN0xPE5XM but take the adapter and put it on the thrustmaster shifter and take the extension and thread it on the adapter on the thrustmaster and take the nut and thread it on the extension, then take your skrs and take the cover off by removing the two screws and plug in the wire into the board, slide the cover back on and put the two screws back on. Screw the skrs half way on extension , center it and take a 19mm or a standard wrench or vise grips and tighten the nut, once everything is good see if the skrs moves to see if it is tight and you are all set just plug the usb in to a open usb port and happy trucking
