Banpei posted a pic in another thread that reminded me of an idea i had a couple of months ago, i have an extra AE86-seat in my basement and wanna convert it into a Gaming chair! Imagine drifting in Gran Turismo 4 sitting in an AE86-seat! Very Happy

So.. i have never done anything like this... Preferably i'd like som kind of stand so that i can have a steering wheel in front of me and pedals on the floor.

Anyone got any nice ideas of how to build this?

Best Regards,

Then you probably need a bigger steeringwheel than this. Wink
