    Hello Simracers,

    I joined this forum a while ago and started reading all kind of topics about sims because im looking to build/buy one. But after all the reading i can't make a choise wich kind of sim i want to build so maybe you guys can help me with that.
    For me the bottleneck now is the design phase or maybe im just a bit lazy because i would prefer a kit that is ready or almost ready for assembly.

    I prefer a seat mover while i dont have much room left here and i think its good enough for a first sim. I also think a 2DOF is fine for now but if its upgradable to 3DOF its even better. I also like the feature of traction loss so i think that would be my next upgrade before i would upgrade to 3DOF.

    So are there any good for value kits or easy to build seat movers for sale or is it better to start from scratch ? And are there traction loss kits for sale that i can fit later ?

    To be honest, the commercial seat movers i found so far where above my budget, i hope you can make one for less then €2000 ?

    I hope you can help me with this

    Dave
