That's part of it... the pedals were canabalised from two Thrustmaster wheels I used for racing in NROS. I took the covers off 'em, flipped 'em over and bolted them to that board. I just used 3 of the 4 pedals (note the far right one doesn't have a foot grip on it).

I also had a cross-over switch that allowed me to trick the computer into recognizing the gas and clutch pedals as a single axis. That's what I used as rudder pedals for flight sims. So I never really needed the 4 pedals.

Since then I've taken a dremel to those pedal boxes and cut the pedals apart so they're eash a single pedal. That way I was able to space them better for heel-toe driving, and reduce the setup to only 3 pedals.

Now, if I could just wire them to work properly with my new Logitech FF wheel, and be compatable with all the games I play, I'll be happy!

I would, but I don't already have a memory card with a GT3 save, but not a GT4 save

I'll bring it just in case we can figure something out.

You can only transfer 100,000 from GT3 and 2 pass license. Not much but extra cash is good. Someone please let me know if we can transfer some cars too.
