For your monitor I would use a square piece of plywood so it can sit flat with no worries about it falling off if you want to stay on the super cheap route. As Rob says, diagonal bracing would be very good idea as well. Looking great so far!
I totally feel this build, had the same mindset as you as making it as budget friendly as possible, did mine with Aluzinc RHS since I'm new to welding and just had to put what I learned at college to the test. Steering wheel being G29 PS version, shifter, used car seat, Logitech 32" 1080p, gtx 1060 6gb OC, I5 with a 16gb ram (my rig still old school with ddr3) and I enjoy my Dirt 2.0 Rally on high settings... life is good!
Good job here. You could have also checked any junkyard near you for a cheaper option for the chairs. I am in the process of doing something similar and that's how I found this video. I picked one up a few days ago for less than $70 CAD, and that includes tax.
This is a nice setup and great seats! But I’ve read recently that seats like this one that has the airbag tags on the seat actually have airbags built in and apparently they can deploy just by static electricity, so it has to be removed by a professional… and you’ll need some seat foam to take up the missing space after removal…. Hope this helps!
Looks good for a start. Since you asked: I would be adding some diagonal bracing to the framing you have. As you mentioned some kind of vesa arm mounting for the monitor. And I would check to find out if there is any chance of the airbag going off when using the seat like this. I don't think there is but I would also want to be certain of that. As for the pc, I think air cooling is fine. You might want something better than the stock fan but AIO is going to be more money for equivalent cooling. AIO might be quieter which may be good for your use case--depends on how you are getting audio for possible streaming, video use. Definitely looking forward to the rest of this series!
Bit late to the party now, but if you have a choice, and you're going with used car seats, the front passenger seat statistically has the least 'mileage' on it. Although, it's pretty common for what you ran into, where the driver has the full complement of adjustability compared to the passenger.
@@automotiveflux But couldn't have you found a cheaper mazda speed seats or a one in bad condition and then change the cover. As I am from Pakistan things are much cheaper here.
More Mazdaspeed content to come

I clicked the video and my first thought was why is there a Speed3 seat?
also based pyro background

Congrats on your first serious rig!
Thanks!

I just love your setup, it's so cheap and relatable.
Love the scrapy get it made attitude. Doing the same for space sim.
built one during 2020 and then sold cuz times got hard now im building a g27 wood rig with my added knowledge from previous r and d
Good start but you're going to want to swap out those screws on the seat for lag bolts.
More solid and they won't loosen over time.

airbag can’t go off without any power. not an issue at all

Does the monitor shake ?
With that setup yes, I ended up going with a separate mount for the monitor
Nice work pal
Are you selling the second seat ?
I would definitely recommend just getting a noctua air cooler, cheaper than an aio for the same performance
boring. aios look cooler.
Do you mean a cpu cooler? An air cooler is not a computer part.
@@Racernumbersix you know what I fucking meant
Im just casually trying to find the easiest and slimmest rig i can find so it could fit in my tiny little room😭
probably one of the fold up ones
good old nanoxia pc case
On my G29 I have the change camera control mapped to R3, maybe you should try that on the G920 equivalent of R3
No stage 2 huh? No location for a shifter/ebrake? It's real hard to drift without an ebrake.
Working on stage 2, got delayed as I'm waiting for stuff to come in
Please consider pcvr if you haven’t already
nice TSF shirt
yooooo that's so tight, man i love that
Nice one
not a bad setup
got a T300 and no rig that shit wobbles so much 💀
I feel your pain
no need to comment on your geographical location when using Robertsons :P
You spend $200 on seats. i spend $35 On Suzuki Cultus Seats(Pair) With no scratches, and adjustable.
I really wanted the Mazdaspeed seats, that extra cost is unnecessary

Thank god asetto corsa isn't requreing a shit load of hardware😂
