2 New Fanatec Wheels for Forza 4 Empty 2 New Fanatec Wheels for Forza 4

Below is a link for 2 new Fanatec Wheels being produced for Forza 4. I believe the CSR Elite is multiplatform and rumoured to be $700 US. The Basic CSR model do not know if it is multiplatform and have heard no rumour on price.

CSR:
Improved force feedback electronics and mechanics make the wheel stronger and faster
Metal CSR shifter set and large metal paddle shifters make shifting gears easier than ever
Lightweight aluminum wheel rim with Alcantara inserts allow faster, more responsive turns

CSR-Elite:
Wheel base fully made of metal with carbon fiber and Alcantara wheel rim
DirectSensor™ technology with sensor mounted directly on the steering axis. This avoids all the interference and performance loss you get from the belt/gear drive found on traditional motor-mounted sensor systems
Dual force feedback motors with 120Watt (silent big fan cooling) and very low cogging force to avoid “notchy” feeling

its good now theres gonna be a full range, 4 wheels so far maybe 5

guessing someone listened to the complaints of no wheels, madcats maybe doing 2 models at least metioning a FFB model, proberly to fill the ms wheel market

quote:
Finally you can also expect new wheels from Madcatz that will also be compatible with Forza 4, including a force-feedback model that will cost $230 and a less expensive option as well.


chur!!!! and were was this a year ago!

Any news on the CS Shifter? I don't think this plastic piece of junk is going to last much longer.

You can still buy the original ones, not sure about the new ones, but we could ask our sponsor.

Of course! Great idea.
I've dome the credit card mod which silences it as well as replaced the plastic shifter with a leather unit but man it's just so imprecise. Especially when trying to get from 5th or 6th down to 2nd. CRUNCH

Let us know how it went.
double check if you get the 2 shifters,
I have a feeling that JB isn't supplying it with their new deals.

hey i got the clubsport pedals and 2 shifters delivered yesterday. JB hifi overnight expressed it to me which was good as i was sick of waiting.



took me two hours to get some bolts, cut to the right length and bolt to my dogdy table. so just played it tonight.

what an awesome setup! gonna take me a while to get used to it, but it is so much better than a shitty microsoft thing.

but need to make a better table, as mine lifts up when changing gears.

only thing that im not happy about is forza 3 isnt compatible with 900 rotation. but forza 4 will be here soon enough.

some pics of my set-up
