Found this at THE GAMESMEN

The wheel doesnt seem to have shifter paddles , is that
the differance between GT2 & Porsche S.
And the JB add does say on line sale only.

The shifter is included, and they most likely will deal. They always do.

im in wa does any one know if that deal is all jbhi or just overeast

Most likely all over.

yes just rang them and they have got some and do you know if the wheel has got shift paddles on them

See my post above yours, its got paddles, and the package comes with the shifter according to Griff.

i see no paddles and they are not mentioned in add

by right all the turbo 's wheels have paddles from my understanding..

as the box's they have in store is the exact box i have at home form the wheel setup i brought off mitch..

Look closer at the wheel. They're not pronounced like racing paddles, but they're there.

i don't ENVY you it must be a constant battle to allway's be RIGHT
What i can only just see is a button , that is not a PADDLE
But i will make allowances for your age.

You're asking if there are paddles, i said they're not as pronounced as, say, the CSR or G27 paddles, but as buttons at your fingertips obviously designed to be used as a gearshift, they're effectively paddles, and considering the wide variety of styles available on cars these days, to call those buttons paddles is not a stretch of the imagination.

Sorry if my understanding of paddles doesn't match up to yours, but to me, they work as per intention. I don't know why you're taking issue (whats with the whole Envy thing? You think i chose that GT?).

When you shove another picture up your just pushing
the last part of your GT THE BEST
Try not going for the last word on this.

Yeah, i'm lost.

I'm not sure about the Turbo S wheel, but with the GT2 the wheel comes with paddles that screw onto those buttons...

correct you are frank, i saw no extra paddles when i got mine.

yes i bit the bullet and got one, now to just get the shifters and the rennsport wheel stand, and ill be set

mcrow .. with these button / paddles. have a look if there is 2 screew holes.. as im sure the paddle parts can be brought as acessories.. Guess if u really want them u can still get them if the holes are in the shifter buttons . ??

Totally off topic, but to show how old I am, I remember the only place in Australia (lived interstate from Gamesmen) that I could buy Ultima 4 (think it was 4) for the Sega Master System was the Gamesmen (talking aprox 25 yrs ago).

I still say the sega master system version was superior to the PC version.

i don't remember games even being on PC's that long ago

I Think the first wheel i got was a old mad catz.. and then the siatek wheel.1st wheel with a sync shifter on it.. .. it was the competitor for the microsoft side winder wheel...

mcrow, try without the the bigger paddles first.
I've taken the paddles off my GT2 wheel and only using the big buttons as you have on your wheel, as are a couple of other guys here. If you hold the wheel in the 10 to 3 position your fingers fall directly on the buttons anyway, works fine.

Thank's iWolf that's the answer i was looking for.

yeah i have no problems with the paddles.

im gonna need to get a stand though, the ironing board doesnt work as well as it did with my g27.

After hearing the good oil on paddles, i went to JB and bought one.
Have got an Apiga Ap2 on order, till then ironing board for me
now need to sort out the settings.

Welcome to the fanatec club gents im sure u's wont be dissapointed

when you sort some settings out,chuck em on the forum.
don't think the porsche turbo has as many settings.

shifter set and rennsport wheel stand ordered i hope to have them before release day.

hey rinkly, did you get the gt2 or the turbo S?

I just got the turbo S from jb hifi last week, and it comes with like half size paddles. and it has all the settings of the GT2 except the turbo S only has drift setting up to 3, where as the GT2 has up to 5.
