![]() The only shifts I have missed are because I didn’t pull hard enough. There is no play, just very, very solid shifts. Even in the lightest setting, the “shifts” were very defined and crisp. I have something at my work that I am going to bring home to try and measure the pull weight. In the heaviest setting pulling it with one finger is just about not possible. In the lightest setting I was able to move it with my index finger. There was the ability to make it lighter and even heavier. I thought it was heavy when I first hooked it up, but that was only about the middle. The next thing I did was play around with the force adjustments. I have temporarily mounted to my rig in the picture below and hope to get the parts needed next week for the actual mount I intend on using. I have not yet played around with adjusting force. The feel is very “mechanical” and the forces needed are rather high, just as I wanted. Significantly better then the other sequential shifter I had used. Love the looks of it with the display and switches… Oh boy this is a beauty, this in my mind is the perfect shifter – but the price, I can’t look at the price!! I really like the way it sounds and it seems like it has good resistance. Read ISRTV forum thread on Manu Factory Sequential Shifter here: Quality DIY shifters are like rare birds difficult to glimpse and nearly impossible to procure.The Manu Factory Sequential Shifter MF SSH14 is a GT3 Replica shifter that looks like it was pulled straight out of the Porsche 911 RSR - SERIOUSLY! Manu Factory MF SSH14 Sequential Shifter definitely wins the beauty contest. If you are truly sick, you may want to build your own Shifter. Sim Racing Sequential Shifters: HE Shifter ~$210 Sim Racing H Pattern Shifters: Frex H ~$503įor me, it’s a far more immersive experience to use a sequential shifter than wheel paddles, especially when driving street and rally cars. None of the prices shown below include shipping. Below are the H Pattern shifters (what some call “sim porn”) that check many of the boxes for the quality immersion bar that’s continually being raised. #Sim racing sequential shifter drivers#Most sim drivers looking to recreate the experience of driving a car will appreciate the feel of high quality equipment. The “touch points” of a car are extremely important to car designers and you should pay attention to them as well as you construct your simulator. However, physically taking your hand off the wheel and rowing the gears can provide a far more tactile driving experience. Shifters won’t make you faster, in fact they will probably make you slower. The Frex reminds me VERY much of my old race car. I used to drive a Ralt F3 fitted with a similar shift connected to a Hewland Dog Box. People have commented the Frex H+ shifter feels more like the bolt action in a protoype car or a vintage race car. The only other truly high quality H pattern on the market is the 2019 Frex H-SHIFT+ When you pull the handle you aren’t simply moving a stick from one spot to another, you are moving an entire shifter linkage just like there would be in an actual gearbox. The Pro-Sim H shifter uniquely accomplishes this by incorporating a massive shifting linkage that gives this shifter it’s heft. Other sim shifters lack significant mass to truly feel like gears are being shifted. If you have a sequential race car, you need a great sequential shifter to train with.Īssuming price is not a constraint, the most realistic H Pattern shifter currently on the market is Quaife Engineering Pro-Sim H Shifter and nothing comes close: If you are training for track days with a three pedal car, you need an H pattern shifter with a realistic gear engagement. Almost every consumer wheel has paddle shifters, but when it comes to tricking your brain into thinking you’re actually in a car, standalone USB shifters are the only way to go. ![]()
