CNT seems to be a good bang for the buck. Have you checked out their thread?

That CNT seat seams to be a great buy for what you get. I was debating between this one and the sim seats SRX, deciding on the SRX because it seemed a bit more solid. I think that CNT seat looks great for under 400 shipped to your door. 👍

Im on the SR-X site now checking out the configs...a decision will be made by the end of the day if they respond to my inquiries.

They are really good about answering emails. I think most of mine were answered the same day as long is it was during the week. They are also really good about making their products meet your needs. If there is anything you would like changed they are more then happy to do it and will usually not charge anything extra as long as it's a simple change.

I bought one of their triple monitor stands and it's great. After hearing other people's complaints with other types of adjustable triple stands theirs seems like the best one by far, and it's the cheapest i have found. IfI ever upgrade past my playseat I will probably look into one of the rigs.
 
Have you checked out the Gran Stand?

I've just set mine up so I don't have a ton of seat time with it, but it's very adjustable and stable.

So far I'm liking it. I have a Fanatec CSR-E with CSP pedals, no drilling required 👍

It's hard to beat CNT and there price, I got mine for $299 shipped, it looks like they have come up $25 but still a great buy, and it is solid, I have a T500 on mine and no problems,
 
well, I decided on an Rseat...had it on sale for $399 plus shipping. Gear shift mount included. may still build the Ricmotech later down the line...thanks for all the insight gents.

I forgot about that, I had one of their seat modules I used with a RWS before I built my rig.
That's another option to consider as well as GranStands complete rig.
Great way to get started with 80/20 stuff too without breaking the bank.

Which RSeat did you buy for $399?

it was the GTR V2...I may have pulled the trigger too early b/c I could've got the CNT w/ reclining seat and monitor stand for $419...oh well---the reviews I found on the rSeat seemed very positive and the rig appeared sturdy in the vids I...nevertheless, it will be a huge upgrade from my TV tray setup!!

Okay that's what I thought, and if it is any consolation I believe you made a good choice.

Thanks Ripster...being new to all of this it's hard to tell sometimes what exactly to get. Cats on the forum such as yourself are valuable assets to us 'green' newbies! Appreciate it bruh!
 
Im leaning towards the SR-X from SimSeats...a little higher in price but have seen good reviews.

I had one and sold it several months ago. They are OK but rough around the edges. Biggest complaint is that they are painted instead of powder coated. Within a few months you start seeing bare metal.

Is there a place to mount shifters on this rig? I've been looking and do not see anything.
 
I've ended up upgrading to the rSeat EVO V3. I will post pics once it arrives and share the experience I had with rSeat's customer service dept this past weekend.
