Sim Racing Girl knows her hardware. She has about all the new mid-range wheels out there, so I think her review of the TM is pretty forthright. The only thing is...Right now, there is no sign that FANATEC wheels are supported in GT Sport. If you've pre-loaded the DEMO, all you will see in the wheel menus are Thrust Master and one Logitech.
I went back and forth between the two and also went for the T-GT although my main reason was my fairly unique circumstances. The MODE button is very important to me, plus I also found this in the manual interesting for future compatibility...To the OP. I personally decided to go for the T-GT over the CSLE. I have stated my reasoning in this thread:

I’ve read that as well! Hopefully that means ps5 support in the future!I went back and forth between the two and also went for the T-GT although my main reason was my fairly unique circumstances.

With a drivehub it can.Hi! Did anyone know will a TH8A shifter will work via usb with CSL elite ? Thanks!
Do you own the Fanatec wheel so that you can do a direct comparison?I have the TGT ... I am a man in the know how.
Get the TGT. Better for Gran trismo sport, and now I'm talk facts.
Has anyone mentioned Input wheel latency in this thread ??
has she done a iracing wheel check latency test ??
Does she know about moment of INTERIA of circular objects to radius ??
She mentions cogging.... she is lost the plot i am assuming. there is non while racing, for me at least.
Simpit shaun cole said he will do a comparison to see which one has lower latency... Useful thing.
Transducer is awesome, makes a difference in GT sport..... even though she said she prefers the one on her rig.
She doesn't understand that we PS4 players can't have that so why compare PC transducer with a PS4 wheel feature and say i prefer the Rig transducer. totally irreelavent point. Since we can't run that on PS4 as it sound be run from sim commander software.
see what i mean she talks from a lay perspective.
so the TGT transducer for ps4 player on GT becomes the best thing we can have.
So with the Transducer i can feel the gears change as they slam up or down... very nice wheel and strong on FFB setting 4.
If u got the money buy TGT. CSL might still be good but for GT sport it 100% worse the the TGT.
FACT
Don’t need to justify your purchase dude. I like it too. But she just stated her opinion. Albeit biased. I do agree thrustmaster should have a loadcell brakeset that would make the thrustmaster really a class above the CSLE. An official brake mod has been floating around in limbo from thrustmaster (search TRS official Loadcell mod). If you could send an email asking about the product, that would be major helpful! Thrustmaster should be pressured to improve their pedalset above anything else!I have the TGT ... I am a man in the know how.

The pedals are hardly junk. They are good pedals, but miss a loadcell brake.IF I buy a new wheel, I think I’ll go with the Fanatec. I have a GT3rs clubsport package and I’m very impressed with their build quality. That wheel was much better than my G25, the Clubsport Pedals were WAY better!
I bought a T500rs for GT6, the fan spazzed out, they sent me one to replace, unheard of! They should have given me a check for $75 to do the labor!!! And now they want, what 800 bucks for this new wheel, which comes with JUNK pedals? I don’t know man. I think they are playing fast and loose with this Gran Turismo “official wheel” license.
The question is, do I trust Thrustmaster’s reliability? Based my experience and others here, I think not.
you need to understand that a good wheel with a belt is s good wheel which both are. Now since you understand that your next question ought to be “what’s the difference between the 2”.Do you own the Fanatec wheel so that you can do a direct comparison?

TGT has the transducer so better for gts.
Csl elite has load cell brake better for non abs users and more natural to reality.
Since u can always buy a load cell for TGT brake aftermarket... then get the thrustmaster since the added FFB for the CSL can’t be brought with a buttkivker transducer add on

I own G29 and put that under my bed as back up. I know this wheel since I had it for over a month.... it’s better for FFB on gt sport. What part of that is hard to understand. I ain’t no stupid common person who talks out of his behind.I value anyone's right to have an opinion but when you come on a forum promoting an expensive product as being the best and claim you are stating facts then it takes a little more than your opinion to be able to back up such a statement.
Actually if you do not own or have not done extensive scientific testing and have those test results to back up your claims on both products that test the build quality, use in application pros and cons of each product as all products have good and bad points compared to another product the your statements as far as being "facts" is not worth the time it took to type this reply.
I have no problem and actually strongly recommend with using all sources of material from various sources to try to gain knowledge about a product they are considering for purchase.
I do find that responding to a thread with someone searching out such information that a response of as you call it "facts" that apparently have no valid
documentation to back up your claims other than your personal opinion or advertising claims or some review found on the internet is exactly how some possible misinformation gets started.
As far as certain features or components such as the use of different parts between brands such as transducers or load cell tech on the braking pedal those are what would be the pros and cons to be listed for each unit. It does not mean that one or the other is a superior product or that the build quality is equal or that one may not be considered a better value.
Now just to throw a wrench into this if you take an accomplished GTS "A" rated driver and you give that driver;
1.) A $799.00 U.S. dollar Thrust Master TGT wheel and pedal set
2.) A (currently available for) $199.00 U.S. dollar Logitech G29 wheel and pedal set
Will that driver post enough of a lap time difference or what would the lap time be in difference of tenths of a second between using the two wheels to justify spending the extra 600.00 U.S. dollars for the Thrust Master product over the LOGITECH product?
Is the build quality better on the TM or the Logitech?
What about longevity, TM has an internet reputation for higher and within a shorter time frame than what should be considered normal failure rates across their model line and their pedals on line are not very highly regarded on line as well.
Logitech is known as older clunky technology but has extremely high reliability reputation, great build quality with the G29 having pretty good pedals out of the box at a price point that currently you could buy 4 G29 wheel and pedal sets to have three brand new spare units for the cost of 1 TGT.
There is a lot more than what transducer is employed to make a product the best and sometimes from a purchasing pricing point the "best" could actually be the "worst" for the features, performance and value received for the money spent.
And I did not hardly mention Fanatec who does carry a very high owners online opinion of the product and build quality and also cost less than the TM.
Lot of choices, lot of pros and cons but one thing for sure is the TGT is not for a fact necessarily the best option across the board for GTS.
I do not own any Thrust Master products nor any Fanatec products so my opinions are gained from what I have read in advertising, customer reviews and on different forums so please take what I share as such.
I do own a G29 and would have no problem recommending it at its price point as a good value that is well constructed and I feel it is ample for the job at hand. Again just my opinion not fact.
The only "fact" you have proven is you stated your opinion.
The pedals are hardly junk. They are good pedals, but miss a loadcell brake.
The pedals from fanatec are far superior probably. Hopefully thrustmaster will finally do something about it though.
at higher level of competition, better brake is a good package to edge your opponent out
again someone someone who thinks the material used to rest your feet is the deciding factor....... your not the only one as well.Compared to the all METAL pedals that came with the T500, plastic is absolutely unacceptable. ESPECIALLY at the price point Thrustmaster has placed this new wheel.
Unbelievable.
I own G29 and put that under my bed as back up. I know this wheel since I had it for over a month.... it’s better for FFB on gt sport. What part of that is hard to understand. I ain’t no stupid common person who talks out of his behind.
I am a S rated driver and can get Car around the track at decent speed. That’s coupled with my experience of high end direct drive wheels and consumer level wheels and a sound technician background in aerospace engineering and computer science gives me a good basis to analyse some performance metrics from configuration.
I don’t know what u want to hear but it sounds like your not gonna hear what u want to. So good luck with your thing.
I hear this girl talk and yep she does a excellent job considering her technical know how but since this is an engineering product the possible limitations of the design aspects she complains about are in fact strengths...
So let her confuse you and other people, I’m just summing up my understanding and abd saying the TGT is better overall
Since I showed that with my purchase over the csl elite.
Gran Turismo Sport
I only upgraded since the g29 would keep the family awake at night otherwise if u have the g29 then keep that wheel since it has the lowest inputs lag and quiets response of any consumer level wheel. Check the iRacing forums to see the hard data on the speed of the Logitech g25/27 wheels compared to Belt driven wheels are faster to react by quite some margin so bear that in mind if ur thinking of changing from a G29
I have a TGT and sent an email requesting load cell info. Its been almost a week. Nothing.Don’t need to justify your purchase dude. I like it too. But she just stated her opinion. Albeit biased. I do agree thrustmaster should have a loadcell brakeset that would make the thrustmaster really a class above the CSLE. An official brake mod has been floating around in limbo from thrustmaster (search TRS official Loadcell mod). If you could send an email asking about the product, that would be major helpful! Thrustmaster should be pressured to improve their pedalset above anything else!
again someone someone who thinks the material used to rest your feet is the deciding factor....... your not the only one as well.
I will let you come to better conclusions as your knowledge grows
Are you old enough to drive a car? Have you purchased a car, with YOUR own money? If so, then you [probably] understand this thing called “build quality”. Maybe?
800 bucks for a wheel should come with the same pedal set as the T500 WITH a load cell added. You’re disagreeing with this, why???
Wow lol .....TGT "wheelbase only" probably had better support on GTS only
outside of GTS, csl elite ps4 package is better in everyway all around. the t3pa is no match for the pedals which comes with the csl.
so you are now saying fanatec gt3 is similar to csl elite? WOW!.............
