Quote from arc team :ehm Pablo.... we can sell SPARCO products... let us know wich kind of model you like.

anyway now we can show the tridimensional image of a new product called ARC_Wheel. This will be the optimal complement for our MOD. The wheel include real Sparco Wheel, 8 buttons, gear+rpm and clutch. we think to show you the first prototype before the end of this month then start betatesting. if all will be ok, will be released at the end of september/october.

When is this ready???? I want to be the first in line...

Actually I'm trying to order something like this... just the mechanichal if possible, I have Leo Bodnar controler and some SLI frome Leo too... Also I have wired the G25 through the inside... could the SLI window be cutted in a custom way for my SLI, See the pictures.

Also, it would be great to do this with a Quick release, that would be great for quick switching Wheels between Openwheels and GT or Rally cars.

Keep Tunned!

OK guys, I don't know what will happen in 6 month but I can tell this, the initial calibration is very fast, but no so strong, have a look at the vid... then in the profiler I use 70% (or less) of the force which gives a correct ammount of weight and a fast response, I believe in those patrameters I can assure nothing seams to be stressed... If you put the porfiler at 100% you just can't drive, or it won´t be real. Also I believe that the weakest part of the G25 is the Steering Wheel itself, it feels like a toy now, I will get a real one now (Sparco Probably), I have to look for a correct diameter and weight to match the original as close as possible so I won't lose the small details I feel now... that's it.

If it gets broken in a year, I would buy another and make the mod again, actually I have a brand new one as a spare (probably I'll mod it anyway too)

PD: Racing slicks are changed much more often and are more expensive too...

After more than a week of using the new G25 with steroids I'm very very happy... the feeling has been really improved and the speed it reacts too. Also I stop doing Benches at the Gym . For me this is a must have mod to have an approach to a serious professional wheel... don't forget the G25 is a consumer product, this Mod makes it more than that.

OK guys I received the kit 2 days ago... it took me 6 hours to complete the Job. I received great support from ARC Team since the beggining, special thanks to them (no names for privacy) l!!!!!!!!

First impressions:

1) Centering takes 4 seconds!!!!!
2) Response is inmmediate
3) Level of FFB has been multiplicated in that way that I can't use it with the profiler at 100%
4) The level of details is tremendous, I feel little details now...
5) More will came...

If you are a hardcore Simracer, this is for you... it gets real not easier...

I'm uploading a few Vids... at the moment see this pictures.

Thanks ARC team again, I have a new experience now.

Quote from arc team :Price will be released at the end of april when hope to release the kit. To build the kit are required 5 hours of handmade + components + new power supply as you can see in first picture at the top of this topic. Actually we try to define the best solution to have a right price for a good service. Please, remember that a professional wheel as FREX-BRD-VPP have a cost over 1000€ (1500/2000).

We are happy to inform that we are working on another project and we hope to release if is really possible. The price? No comment because we don't know again how much is the cost of the prototype...... My god!


Yes Man! This is needed and should be the next move!!!

Are u reading minds??? ...

Quote from arc team :Dear friends,

It's possible for us to sell the kit for the mod (all needed components included; electronic circuit, cables, fans, switch, fuse, power supply and photo+text instruction manual) but the whole job should be executed by a skilled personnel, It doesn't mean you gotta be an electronic engineer but any of you who would wanna do this mod must be able to use soldering station very well 'cause soldering and desoldering components on the original circuit board (some of them quite small) is required.
If you think you can get the job, it worth the shot to boost up your G25 !
BUT, if you're not able to do the job, you can send your G25 to us and we can do the mod for you.

Gooood news!!! and very kind for you to be so honest! I have those skills plus the equipement, so please let me know when it is ready for sale!!! I have 2 spare G25s waiting for Steroids...

We have also change big fan with 2 smallest mantaining the same temp instead.

More news are ready to come, soon.

Great Work, congrats!!!

Big question for me is, are you planning to sell a DIY KIT so we can make the Mod by ourselves? I would be very pleased customer if this is possible.
