This is a Nixim, made in the UK, shipping was not bad either. I have extra parts to setup a complete HOTAS stick layout for when MWO comes out. Anyway, I wrote a reeiw on a race sim site earlier this evening (while watching my brackets fall apart) and figured I cut/paste it here......I hate typing on my lap top.
So...my Nixim chassis arrived 2 days before I left for the Rolex 24, then work swapped me and then...my dog ate the cord that connects the power supply to my CSR wheel.....oh and did I mention UPS or Amazon dropped or just decided to beat the hell out of my box that had my Sparco R505 seat in it? It arrived with both the hinge covers and the recline knobs broken......grrrrr! Amazon has covered the cost of the repairs but I still am waiting on parts, and the ones I received are black instead of silver, so I need to paint them.
But...now its about finished and I've been able to get some seat time.....wow, its amazing how a rock solid mount helps with lap times. The seat is comfy, well as a semi racing seat can be. I am impressed with the construction of the Nixim, damn thing weighs 150# plus the seat, but the wheels make moving it around a breeze. Over-engineered does not begin to describe this thing. It is solid.
So on to the pics.......
And my shameless plug for Tamiya's Sim Rig of the Week.....I dug out my old Tamiya Mazda 787 1/10 scale electric R/C car. It won best paint at the Tamiya Regional meet in like 1996ish, and then promptly got flipped over and scuffed all to heck lol!
oh and that picture in the back ground (yes I still need to hang it, it just arrived from the frame shop on Weds.) is the 1965 Rolex winner that I actually touched and then took a bunch of pictures of....heck it even smelled like a vintage race car... here is that pic.....
Anyway.....I highly recommend the Nixim, its not exactly cheap.....but Its built to last and solid as a rock!
