CSIO Technologies SKRS shifter

Yes I think you are right, I will contact my bank next week and see if I can get my money back.

Did you get the ASP button box?

I'm going to be getting info from the KS page and a couple other things while another one of my friends helps me with getting stuff from this topic and the steam forums. Going to be a few days probably to get it all, but I'll be making a video as someone from an outside perspective on the situation and hopefully its objectionable.

@fawls. Yes I have the ASP box. It is not made by CSIO. It is from another guy that sells thru CSIO, see here The box came in about 2-2.5 months. Exactly when he said it would. You can avoid CSIO site and go directly to their site. The box is great. Expensive but welllll worth it. I remapped my most used buttons and it's awesome. I also found this cool little desk top visa stand for it that it is mounted to. No drilling on my desk or mounting to furniture. The stand is mobile and it has a weighted bottom so it doesn't move easily. Same with the height adjustment. It is very stiff and takes force to adjust the height and tilt.

Here are a few pics below. Excuse the mess though. I have not dusk nor cleaned my desk area is awhile. Cleaning takes away from driving in ATS, lol. For my Mega Shifter, I made a little setup out of galvanized pipe from Home Depot and made an adjustable shifter stand. It worked out very very well. It put the shifter in a natural truck position in my limited playing area. My desk is actually a work station so I had to make my setup fairly compact. Thus far, its great. I just wish I had space for 3 horizontal monitors.

Thanks for clearing that up, I wasn't sure if there was a tie up with CSIO or not as they are available on their site.
I haven't decided if I need one or not, they are kind of expensive and I have a G25 shifter with lots of buttons and have almost everything covered, if I get my money back from CSIO through the bank I might grab one... assuming the ship overseas.
I built a driving cockpit for racing NASCAR, at the time I mounted the seat a little high for a race car, it was ok but works now for a truck ok as well. I will try to upload a pic but I might be too new here for it to work...

i oredered my csio shifter and i loved it ,, got mines in 3 weeks

@renanate12: How long ago did you order it?

[flight50]

Yeah, that's the trick. I am sure he did not order in 2017. If he did it was before May 2017. People would got their are all in 2016 that I have seen. CSIO is not the place to order a shifter for such an expensive device.

I also recommend the ASP button box, I mounted it on my G25 setup with dashboard (TM1638 + tablet running Simhub) so it's all fully transportable as an independent unit, I love the sound of the ignition keys rattling when I drive over a bumpy road... paired with TrackIR and buttkicker it feels great to me, I can't recommend the latter enough for added immersion, you really feel the engine running.

Btw, that's a MEGA shifter, not a CSIO SKRS... Even BBB cannot get an answer from these crooks (see my other thread).

@Carl1992: from here, they have different but similar models and several options:

Quite expensive but high quality I think. Also takes two months to ship (worldwide), but reliably on time.
