Today we continue our series taking you from an entry level sim rig through a typical upgrade path all the way to ultra-high-end to help you find the sweet spot for your needs and budget. Today we're upgrading from the Logitech G923 to the Thrustmaster TS-XW wheel which comes bundles with Thrustmasters T3PA pedals and comparing the experience, as well as comparing to some other common hardware from Fanatec within a similar price range.

Today we check out Simtag's Black Edition Hydraulic Sim Racing Pedals. These pedals utilise real life race car parts including Tilton 600 series pedals and Wilwood Master and slave cylinders and provide a very realistic pedal feel which allowed me to achieve faster and more consistent lap times.
