    A plugin for GT7 is being worked on by @vthinsel: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/gran-turismo-7.17247/

    But in the meantime it is likely you could use the generic Joystick plugin: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...otion-plugin-and-vjoy-controller-mapping.387/

    In terms of building a motion rig, there are lots of member projects to check out and draw inspiration and ideas from from: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/

    You will find plenty of helpful information in the FAQs to get you started, in particular check out the SimTools, fundamentals of motion and the design sections: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    You can also search for specific types of projects/information using the Google Custom Search function on the Recent page: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/find-new/posts?recent=1

    If something sounds odd then look it up in the glossary: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/glossary-of-acronyms-and-names.66/

    Good luck with your project.
