I'm posting this for a friend. These things are in immaculate shape. IT makes playing GT4 much more fun!
..
he is not willing to trade or swap...HE is not WILLING TO PART THE SEATS OFF THE FRAMES so don't ask...he wants cash only...YOU WILL NEED TO CONTACT HIM @ HIS EMAIL: [email protected]

with that said, here's his info:

They are 2 fully functional, fully adjustable seat/driving setups for sale either together or apart. (ie: one whole set: wheel, seat, wood frame) Here is what each consists of:

-Sturdy wooden construction with brackets engineered to hold the seat rock solid while still providing driver comfort and stability.
-CLEAN, like new Del Sol seats with a silver stripe. Seats retain all brackets and adjust forward/backward, and recline, etc.
-Logitech GT4 steering wheel/pedals with force feedback.
-Sliders in key locations on the bottom of the seats to help with ease of movement.
-Wooden frame painted black and black carpet installed under floor panel that holds pedals to illeviate wear on home carpet.

Keep in mind, I have 2 of these seats, they can go together or separate. I also have a third steering wheel with the Best Buy service plan that I will give to you free of charge if you buy the two as a set. This way if you have a wheel go out (hasn't happened yet), you not only have an additional wheel in the original packaging to swap out, but you can replace the bad wheel in the packaging and take it back to the store for a new one.

Single seat/wheel combo: $400.00
Both seats/wheels together: $800.00 with third wheel and service plan on wheel.

I will deliver locally or you can come and pick them up. I am located in Woodstock.

it's not light by any means..it takes 2 people to move them...
but they're sturdy that's fo sho...they take the abuse of Nuremberg Ring quite well..

we always play barefooted too so you don't have to worry about Destroying the pedals :)

the full setup is the way to go b/c you get a backup wheel as part of the deal!

That shit is fucking sweet, Im gonna build my own for my game room when I get my appartment in GA so I can play the shit out of some Forza 2 when it comes out. Too bad the damn microsoft wheels are $150, but they are wireless. Somebody should definately buy this. I dont play PS2 enough or I would.

oh I'm sure you could just pick up ONE :)...plenty of room for ONE!...

and i-VEETEC, i'm sure you could find a way to attach seat belts if you need it..matter of fact you could put an arm rest on it & pimp the seat laid back :)...

Well the other issue is my lack of a PS2, and my TV isnt in a place where I could put it...but it is still badass...

oh but that can be remedied for about $100 bux or less now that the PS3 isout :)

plus it's a "slim-line"...

oh &i'msure the game is good used...no need for add'l controller b/c you have a steering wheel w/ feedback :)

Smokin_Joes_2kSi
11-22-2006, 09:42 AM
so spend $400 on one of the seats and steering wheels...cost of the steering wheel alone is expensive...

Hey guys, these are my seats and trust me, they're worth the money. The seats alone in this kind of condition would cost you at least 300, not to mention the wheels themselves were 150 when they came out, call it 100 now, that makes it 500 just for the hardware. Then you have the construction and materials.

If you'd rather have one of the cheap aluminum ones that wiggles when you put a hard move on the wheel, be my guest. But these are comfortable, adjustable, and look like a piece of furniture. Having built these and also played on the "prefabricated" ones, I'd prefer my own all day long.

Just a thought. Thanks for the input, if they sell, cool, if not, whatever. I'm not hurting to sell them, just trying to support my new PC ;)

Yeah, thats 3 pieces of metal, a cheap seat and NO STEERING WHEEL for the same price.

If you look down to the piece thats braced better and a little more robust, it's going for 600 without a wheel.

You want a piece of scaffolding or a piece of furniture that doesn't look cheap like that stuff does?

what does me beign in japan have to do with the fact your selling some del sol seats and some plywood for 400 bucks?Oh and a wheel.

I just think its exorbiantly priced for a DIY ghetto rigged setup thats not adjustable personally.

adn del sol seats?
Nah id use the Type x seats that i haev in storage, or maybe my bride ergo, or hell, i might go buy another bride for it.

but 400 for that, is like a foot in the face lol

im not meaning to be a dick, Joe is a good guy. Its just an unreasonable price for something like that
A del sol seat MAYBE would be 150 bucks, But why would someone use that when you can get a cheap ass racing seat for 75-100
the wheel you can get used for around 100 bucks now (how i got mine)
the plywood is what 25-35 a sheet?
2x4s and raqndom other shit shouldne be more than 50 bucks
.....so around 250-275 adn a few hours of your time? lol

The seats are fun, i used a set of mint CRX Si seats to do the same thing. Bump for a good seller and fuck the haters!

JDMBeau
11-24-2006, 09:21 PM
um...look on h-t a guy is selling 3 sets of delsol seats for 400 a pop, and they will sell for that.

the steeringwheels 3 for 100 a piece what they are going for thats 300

probally about 150-200 in parts, plus the labor to put the thing together thats about another 200

thats almost 1000.

yokoto or w/e stop hating on the thread.

someone buy these

Smokin_Joes_2kSi
11-25-2006, 09:43 AM
everyone has a right to their opinion...

but in this case, you're getting a pretty good deal...even you did the math for me...cost of lumber + cost of wheel + cost of seats (those 2 seats alone are worth $200 a pair minimum...

granted there are other seats out there that may be cooler/neater/more stylish but i'm sure if you buy both of the rigs & you opt not for the seats, he'll still cut you a deal..but he will not sell the seats separately unless someone else has purchased thew remaining rig (ie: wood frame & controllers)

i saw one of these on ebay last year. the guy had taken the wheel apart and moved the shifter down beside the seat, and wired a button on the dash for the nitrous. then he molded it all in to look like a dash with 2 steering wheels. i think he cut two civic dash's in half... it was pretty cool. It had bride seats. sold for like $2500 i think...
