I remember stumbling upon your reviews when I was looking for which wheel to buy. I never thought I'd get so hooked to sim-gear reviews, lol. Good job, keep it up!
Bought this on launch. For occasional use on GT7 its great and much better than the Logitech shifter i had with my old G29 setup. I have swapped the cheap plastic gearknob for a metal one which i got off eBay with an adapter. Feels and looks a lot better.
Bro, this thing is 100x better than logitech just the resistance and quality feel, clamping force, i have used the logitech shifter for 3 or 4 years and i think the th8s is way better it actually feels tactile instead of the logitech. The logitech has no resistance whatsoever it feels like i could probably shift with my tongue, th8s atleast 2 fingers with a sort of soft click when in gear. Idk why you say it's just a little better when for the same price it is absolutely a night and day difference, i also tried it in the store alongside the th8a and it is the same feeling just not with the metal bits, and a little different knob, that's not worth the 140 euro difference for me. i like the knob it's still nice in the hand and the shape feels realistic enough better than the logitech one, you're bashing it's realism when most consumers of this product use it at their desk, it's just for fun and it feels way more realistic than the logitech one i don't think you gave it justice.
I had considered this when I was looking at shifters, but I opted for the big boxy boy on Amazon, but I like that there are entry level options like this
You're making some incredible and entertaining content while giving solid information, I hope one day I can start sim racing while watching some of your reviews
People waiting for or looking for reviews on products they have already bought are just looking for validation. I think it is better to do the research first and then just enjoy it. It is easy to take some negative opinions personally (whether it is rage or despair or self loathing) when you are already invested in the product with your identity, so to speak.
Just so happened to come out on Amazon the day after I upgraded to my Thrustmaster TX, pre-ordered it and have been enjoying it since! I believe it's an improvement from the G920 shifter
Just picked this up at Best buy for $49.99 during the Black Friday sale I believe it'll still be on sale until Cyber Monday. I'm sure it's definitely worth that. Can't wait to try it out.
I have this thing and I love it! Much better than Logitech's garbage (just not for me, I know it has its fans). It's well built for an entry level shifter for just a bit more cash, not as good as the TH8A obviously, but still very good!
@@guardrailhitter I use my Logitech 3d extreme pro as a hand break but I want an actual hand break that’s cheap and not a flight stick as it’s not the best lmao
Finally. Too little too late though as I'm no longer in the Thrustmaster ecosystem.....yes I know I could use it with my PC, but I already have a China usb based unit that's almost entirely made of metal, and it's very much so strong. That will be the main competition here, and they are already well proven, so while this is decent, it's already been beat. Great job here as always Oscar.
This thing reminds me of an old Act Labs shifter I was using ages ago. The main difference were metal, replaceable pattern plates. And I did exactly the same thing You wanted to do - replaced the knob with a third party one ;)
3:27 Has the shift knob come off the shaft? If it still doesn't come off, heat the bottom part with a hair dryer a little. The tip of the shaft is oval rather than circular, so instead of turning it, try rocking it back and forth while pulling the lower part. I got it easily.
I speak spanish and the other day I saw a review from a spanish guy and he said that on pc this shifter can be use as an hydraulic handbrake because it has an analog mode, I think that is great to have extra functions :D
i got one from best buy to upgrade the g force shifter because i hated to reverse lock out it had. This TM shifter is awesome and i was able to change the knob the first time you take it off it will take some force
On the TH8S with a plastic knob kinda feel like a toy, So wrapped the side of the knob with badminton grip or cut a leather for more premium looking but from me.. using badminton grip kinda make me comfortable while shifting.
I would say from not owning a Logitech shifter myself but using one and then planning on getting this I feel like the extra gear and having reverse be its own comfortable but one thing to note is that this one doesn’t centre which causes going into 7th and R a bit more difficult than the other gears
honestly id just prefer the TH8S since it is a far better deal over the old one and the fact that the logi shifter is too small for me to comfortably use
Uhm i have used logitech shifter for 3 to 4 years yes definitely worth it, paid 60 euro for mine, it felt exactly the same as the th8a side by side in the store, it is way better than the logitech, the th8s is very sturdy feeling and feels way better shifting than the logitech i would definitely recommend, maybe try to find one in a store and try, very crisp shifts
@@Its_Danny- ive used mine for awhile and i have to say it is very comfortable and does shift very crisp and both this and th8a use the same internals just in a more compact form factor and more plastic but other than that it is 100% worth it
Between each paragraph the volume for the music and engine revving goes up so high, it feels a little unnecessary but this was nearly a year ago so I’m sure skills have improved
I feel like $70 is a bit expensive for the cheap materials used, but compared to the TH8A it is a much better value. I'm just wondering, for someone like me who mainly does sim racing on PC (I have an xbox but am not sure if I'll connect my wheel to it), should I go for the TH8S which works well with my thrustmaster TXRW wheel, or should I go with an ebay H-pattern shifter instead? I heard they have more feedback plus they/re made of metal, but doesn't have a convenient mounting bracket
Honestly, if you've got an aluminum rig or something you don't mind drilling into, the aliexpress h pattern shifters are still undefeated in price to performance for me.
So @ the end of the day a much better shifter than the $70.00 logitec, sold that all I needed LOL. I know a better shifter will give you a better feel just not in my budget, it's this or nothing. Thanks for the vid. Cheers
I have the T300 and i believe that for 70 euros its an bargain, take into consideration that in thrustmaster bases, only th shifters are compatible, and also that my wheel and pedals cost 350 euros while the cheapest th shifter is 210, then its a great offer
It also feels almost exactly the same as th8a, honestly to me side by side in the store it felt exactly the same, just misses a few bits of metal which don't really add anything except the H pattern plate. I bought mine for 60, so yeah definitely not worth an extra 140 euros
Someone with common sense. Man the sim community is more than braindead ngl. Who justifies paying ~€200 for a shifter. Dude there's people with real cars that pay less for maintenance. That said the th8s and th8a are the same fricken thing. One's plastic and the other isnt. Just get the cheapest one and save urself a lot of money
Can I use this with the Ferrari spider steering wheel? It would be to play on the xbox. Im confused about the wheel base requirement. I thought it could just plug into the wheel itself? Sorry I’m a novice with this stuff!
I actualy just finished making a 3d printed DIY sim racing shifter by CET3D on thingyverse 7 + R yet to fully test as I'm currently printing a table clamp. For $70 the TH8S is fine slots into the gap in the market nicely.
So.. I'm running out of choices here.. My Tmx wheel has just died out of nowhere, been looking for another wheel, which I have my eyes on the TX. Though.. my th8s cable, the din6 or whatever it's called.. the pins got bent and broke off for some reason.. I can't use the normal USB cable for my Xbox, as far as I remember atleast, I kinda need it and no site I've seen has it. TLDR: Broke my shifter cable like a dumbass, I need another one.. 😅
Hey OC, I've just got a quick question. I have been loving the content and especially your style of reviews! I currently play on a desk-mounted G920 w/h shifter and Moza Handbrake, and I am looking for an alternative mounting mechanism. I am either thinking of buying a wheelstand such as the NLR Wheel Stand 2.0, or a foldable cockpit such as a playseat challenge or NLR GT lite pro. I am also looking into upgrading to DD soon, probably either with a Moza R5 or Fanatec CSL DD. Which of the rigs do you think I should go for based on my current equipment and possible future improvements? I don't have a lot of space so that is why I am looking at these ones. Any other alternatives to these are also greatly appreciated! Thanks!
personaally from owning both i feel its a way better option it feels cheaper and lighter than the original but also its newer and like 40% of the price of the original
I'm an absolute beginner with the sim racing world, having picked up a T248 to play Dirt Rally 2. I picked up this shifter as a starting point and have enjoyed it so far, though I'm surprised that in all the videos I've watched, nobody has touched on the analogue function that's in the controller software! Click this on and BAM, it's a very inexpensive handbrake option! Can't have both at the same time though, but it feels decent enough for an absolute starter IMO
@spotifyfree9421 2 months later, it's still holding strong! I mostly use it as a handbrake for WRC and Dirt. But when I change it to the shifter for Mudrunner, it's still working great!
My son turned 9yrs old a couple months ago, and he enjoys racing games. He has a PS5, so im getting him Gran Turismo 7, the thrustmaster 150, and this shifter. Will it do the trick as his first racing wheel and shifter setup?
@@OCRacingI was sold on the T150 from your video lol. And already bought the TH8S shifter a couple hours ago. Same price at Best Buy here in canada. Also picking up a practically brand new T150 for $140 Canadian. Getting it tomorrow

has anyone bought this shifter and had the same issue in the video were the shifter knob wont come off. Im wanting this for use in ats and plan on putting a truck shifter knob on it. and i'm hopping I won't need to get creative on removing it.
Just got my 2nd sim wheel, which is the thrustmaster ferrari 458 wheel, and im wondering if there's a way to connect the shifter since im also getting upgraded pedels. I heard that you are able to add a shifter.
stupid question but can i use a logitech shifter or a fanatec shifter or a thrustmaster shifter or any other shifter with a superdrive subsonic sv450 wheel but like If i just buy any shifter can i connect it to my computer and it will work? If you dont know a sv450 is a cheap wheel i use because i had a tight budget for a wheel but i want to use a shifter to but idk if it will work please inform me at some point
This shifter comes with two cables: One to connect it to Thrustmaster wheels and USB to directly connect it to a PC. I bought one a few days ago but I couldn't test it yet. It probably depends on the game if it works. Some are able to handle several devices at once e.g. the Saitec Heavy Equipment Controller consists of two devices: The wheel amd the console with all the buttons and both work at once in ATS.
Sooo, this nice piece of kit will not for the xbox, nor will it work with a logitech wheelbase?? 🤦🏻F. I aint getting logitechs cheap $40 thing. Erm... thanks for the review and spoiling my afternoon 🤣✌️❤️💯
this is just too close in price to the SHH shifter for me to justify recommending it to friends on a budget :/ the SHH is not that much more $, has adjustable tension, has a quick change sequential mode (with a switch for swapping to dedicated bindings), and offers multiple mounting options.
See I have Xbox so I wanted the Logitech one so bad is there any 3rd party ones that is like the Logitech ?? Thanks great video also I have an entry level THURSTMASTER TMX I don’t even think they make it anymore lol 😂
Thanks for Great vid. I have a question: I bought it last month and I didn't encounter any issues when connecting it to my PC. But when connecting it to the PS4 to play grandturismo (via the wheel's connection port), the console doesn't recognize it. Have you tested it yet?

One to connect it to Thrustmaster wheels and USB to directly connect it to a PC. I bought one a few days ago but I couldn't test it yet.
It probably depends on the game if it works. Some are able to handle several devices at once e.g. the Saitec Heavy Equipment Controller consists of two devices: The wheel amd the console with all the buttons and both work at once in ATS.
my th8s shifter dose not work help me
What the thread of the knob? M4?
Will it work on the t150?
Does it work with the logitech 923 for ps5
Sooo, this nice piece of kit will not for the xbox, nor will it work with a logitech wheelbase?? 🤦🏻F.
I aint getting logitechs cheap $40 thing. Erm... thanks for the review and spoiling my afternoon 🤣✌️❤️💯
before watching the video im already confused why they made a budget version of a budget shifter (not budget in price just feel)
Im hesitant to get it, cant find anything on whether its compatible with the tmx pro
It is
How do you hook up the shifter to my Xbox one
Ya can't
So do you need a clutch pedal for this to work?
No
this is just too close in price to the SHH shifter for me to justify recommending it to friends on a budget :/
the SHH is not that much more $, has adjustable tension, has a quick change sequential mode (with a switch for swapping to dedicated bindings), and offers multiple mounting options.
The only issue with the shhh for me is that shipping times for America are ridiculous. That’s the only reason I opted for this one, personally.
@@thefiercecreator129 you have to wait, but you get an objectively superior product... delayed gratification.
Why haven’t you reviewed the R3 bundle from moza??
Didn’t receive it until recently, will be coming soon.
Will it plug onto the tmx?
Do the Logitech shifters work on trustmaster wheels as well?
no
See I have Xbox so I wanted the Logitech one so bad is there any 3rd party ones that is like the Logitech ?? Thanks great video also I have an entry level THURSTMASTER TMX I don’t even think they make it anymore lol 😂
Thanks for Great vid. I have a question: I bought it last month and I didn't encounter any issues when connecting it to my PC. But when connecting it to the PS4 to play grandturismo (via the wheel's connection port), the console doesn't recognize it. Have you tested it yet?
I think he said it only will work with the PC.
Is it compatible with a T300RS GT Edition ?
Yes
