What a great and honest review. I just bought this wheel, (coming from a t150) with the T-LCM and what a difference it is. GT7 feels like a complete new game, you can feel the grip, be more precise. The rumbling is so well done I find myself playing way more GT7 then ACC on the PS5. Having so much fun and as you said, that is what it is all about. No need to discuss a DD wheel, it is a personal opinion after all.
agreed, really nice to not have him spend the whole video acting confused about why anyone would buy this instead of spending 500 more on a DD option [here in canada, it aint so pretty]
Have you tried the GT2 with different games or just for GT7? I'd personally like to know how much better the wheel performs for GT7 vs all the rest as I'm pretty underwhelmed by it even though it's good on Project Cars 2. Would be nice to know the price is justified and it competes well vs DD on the right game. I was devastated to feel how clunky the wheel is when I first got it.
@@Substance2020 Currently I play only ACC and GT7. The wheel is working absolutely fantastic. Since the ACC upgrade to 1.8 the ffb on ACC is much better then what i got from GT7. But on GT7 it is still very good. Have you tried different settings? PC2 is known not to have good ffb also depending on the car so not a good reference point.
@@JayTurboDeluxe Strange, I thought only GT7 made use of the transducer and was designed around that game given it has a specific switch for it. I dunno, PC2 is pretty good, played around with everything. I'm sure it could be improved on though.
@@Substance2020 Don't forget PC2 is getting old ;) Will give it a try just for Le Mans that is just epic. The transducer only works for gt7 but I don't miss it on ACC bc the FFB in that game is just so good.
It is insane how much info you get from a game using a force feedback wheel to anyone who hasent tried a ffb wheel it is night and day from a controller
Good review, agree that the TCLM are a must and a huge upgrade, I can’t believe the price of this unit and like most others think I would consider Fanatec instead however the additional delivery and import duties increase the overall cost. I hope Thrustmaster are creating some newer bases for Xbox but the prices are more reasonable
The XBOX has no good racing sim games. MicroSoft seriously need to invest into a GT-like racing game that's more simcade than the cesspool of shit that Forza has ended up becoming.
I bought the t-gt 2 for 500 euros like new, only opened for a demonstration, and I’m really happy. I’m playing it on gt sport and I can’t wait to try it on gt7. For people who play different games, and play on pc, I advise to choose the fanatec csl dd. It’s useless to go on to say ‘people with a brain choose the fanatec’, they’re two different product for two different platforms.
The dd Pro is a ps5 compatible. I've went for a tgt2 for 500 too so when I come to upgrade to the dd Pro in march I will have my moneys worth. Hopefully its as good as my last g29 if not better
@@FXCartel yes right, but I was talking about the csl dd, that is in the same price range. I considered to buy the DD pro but I’ve noticed that if I add the third pedal, the booster kit and the delivery from Germany it would cost me more than 1K, double than what I spent on the thrustmaster. It’s a direct drive, it’s a fanatec product, it’s surely better than the t-gt 2 but we can’t compare it with a wheel that I can find on the market for half money used like new. And, if I have to be honest, the t-gt 2 with gran turismo, assetto corsa and dirt 2.0 it’s really impressive, and the fact that people judge it without having tried it makes me really angry
Thanks for the review and hope you are feeling better. Nice looking wheel. Just setting up my first rig and waiting to see if Thrustmaster’s releases a DD wheel this year. Picked up a Logitech G29 for 190$ on Amazon Prime day.
For me,this wheel works perfectly fine.Wasn't driving GT for 2 years,bought it recently and already gained great times in weekly challenges.Downside is u cannot kick assholes from lobbies with this.
Don’t get me wrong I would no questions asked take a tgt ii if they gifted me one as well, but there is not $600+ worth of difference/upgrades to the ii to justify me moving to it. I’ll stick with my base tgt and save up for the fanatec dd and pedals they offer that is worth the sticker price. The one thing that drives me absolutely nuts about thrustmaster and the tgt is all their acronyms and flashy explanations of those acronyms, but it all still leaves you scratching your head of what it actually all means.
I believe the T-GT II will have the option to buy base , base + rim , and base + rim + pedals so diff options if people wanted diff rim/pedals seperatetly. T-GT was a cracking wheel even better with the T-LCM purchase. Have moved to Fanatec DD1 since but do miss that extra sensation you got in GT sport with the T-GT def added to that game shame was not compatible in other titles.
@@palonazo exactly this. I keep pricing it out because I see the cost of the base, but then I go and put the literal cheapest bundle together that I can and it winds up twice the price. Plus I don't have room for a dedicated sim rig. Mines foldable. There is no way in HELL its going to handle not only the ffb but the pressures required with load cell pedals.
@@timduncan2211 Yes. It's still a good price if you plan to get serious about this hobby. But the initial investment to adopt any direct drive ecosystem, even with a Fanatec DD base, is never lower than $1300 (base, wheel, pedals, rig). If you're a casual simmer there's no way to justify the cost of this. This is for people who will spend hours and hours every week driving, who are even willing to get an extra PC with monitors and dedicate a corner of the house for it and the sim rig. Basically we're talking at least $3000 to have a rig that makes using a direct drive wheel pleasurable rather than an annoyance.
@@timduncan2211 Sorry for the late reply Tim. Yeah you can get a solid Thrustmaster for $850-$950 CAD... The Fanatec CSL DD Setup winds up being at least $1,450 CAD by the time you get it shipped to Canada.
Jase this is exactly what I was expecting. A real lazy effort. I think as soon as they caught wind of a cheaper DD wheel from Fanatec they decided there and then it was easier to just very slightly upgrade the TGt and throw it out with clever marketing jargon. They have years to develop a DD wheel but as predicted Logitech and thrustmaster want cheap to manufacture wheels and not involve themselves in more complicated DD units. Piss poor effort for sim racers that were expecting bigger things.
This comment did not age well. Logitech absolutely smashed it and tm brought out a decent dd wheel...both of which are a tier or two(logi pro) above the fanatec dd pro or csl dd...you get what you pay for
Look I have a all thrustmaster eco system. T300 , Open Wheel add on ,tlcm pedals. My t300 goes light after about 40 min of use. I will switch my whole setup to a fanatec DD $350 wheel base before I pay $500 for this I will pay $350 for this not a penny more.
T300 lowers the force feedback when it starts overheating. The problem with T300 is that in the default mode it spins the fan a little too late. You can prevent it by having the fan on from the get go, you activate this mode by pressing two specific buttons (easy to google). That way the wheel won't overheat and the FFB shouldn't fade.
I own a Thrustmaster T500RS. It’s such a good wheel and done me proud. I’ve recently purchased a PS5 and GT7 but disappointed the T500 isn’t PS5 compatible. Is the upgrade in the GT II worth it or should I buy a DriveHub to keep using my T500? It would be such a shame to relegate my T500. It’s built like a tank and still going strong.
Well mate just incase you haven't heard thrustmaster is bringing out there direct drive wheel before the end of this year(2021) so i can't waite for that,👍fanatec may be in for a shock i think mate, loved your video's brother keep up the good work cheers🍻🙂👍
Thx for the review and I agree on most points said. For GT players this is technically a great steering wheel, but t3pa pedals aren’t a great match with it. There are to many “old” components in this set to apprehend the price of this set. Personally I think this set is worth €450,- . Because the wheel set is already in stock and for sale, I guess the development and production line was already done when Fanatec came with the news of there “cheap” DD wheel. So in short terms , Thrustmaster haven’t got a answer to that DD wheelbase. Especially if you realize that the cheapest Fanatec setup is €630 vs €750 of the T-GT. Can’t wait to see a side by side review between those 2.
they should be coming out with a DD soon, Seen on their twitter on the roadmap they posted about a direct driver wheel base they were planning to have done end of the year or beginning into 2022. Hopefully they came out with something cheaper then the CSL DD , IF they don't Fanatic has that whole market for themselves. And to get back on the topic of this video Im sure this wheel is Great, But you can buy the CSL DD With the Pedals and the boost Kit for a very Similar price as this thrustmaster , its like 100$ more. Anybody who is actually going to spend the money for this wheel, Should Just spend a little more for the Fanatec. Only downside is it might take a couple months to get it with the Demand Rates and the shipping Backlogs. this wheel Should be like 500 Dollars, not 800.
First of all , Thrustmaster posted that there DD will be pc only. The best comparison is the T-GT2 with the GT DD pro. Both for PC and PlayStation. Full Thrustmaster set in Europe is €750 and Fanatec is €700. How I see it is Thrustmaster puts a DD on the market it will be above the T-GT and so maybe about the price point between €900 and €1200.
@@garryburns6659 Need an Australian or at least Near you to create something like this!! Maybe encourage your Civilian Sector!! Other than that!! Go to Mexico and Cross into US. The Dems will set u up with an ID SS# and a New FFB wheel!!! Lol wouldn’t surprise me!! Either way Good Luck!!
Think I’ll look at a dd next to expensive for what it is as most people have there rig sorted and want to upgrade the base only ! Think it’s for new wheel players only tbh
I guess the CSL DD is the better option than the T-GT. But Thrustmaster has one advantage. They can deliver the next day because the set is in stock and ready for PlayStation, Fanatec isn’t PlayStation ready ( at this moment ) and you have to pre order it, to get it delivered 6 months later.
@@ChrisVmovie yeah it’s in STOCK because every one is Pre ordering CSL Pro DD!! Is sad and the Pedals in Thrustmaster eco system is TRASH!! Even with A DD1 style wheel. Without V3 level pedals WTF are they doing???? Same pedals since 08!!! Minor Improv when Fanatec is Changing Sim Racing!!! GL
Hi, Firstly a fantastic review. I have just brought one. But I have one question please... The 4 rotary dials, how do I assign them to, say traction control, fuel and brake balance ??? I just can see how to do it. Even google can't help me. Thank you so very much. Dale
Hi Jason nice review seems a bit weird bringing a second wheel out only to be different in very slight adjustments and like you said cheap pedals that go with this product make you wonder if you should part with your cash for a little bit of flashy chrome effect. If I was looking for a update in the wheel dept yes maybe would buy, but the low end fanatec is now on the market which will give it a run for its money . P.s great review
Good review mate. Crazy UK pricing, £50 more than EU. Also cant compete with 350 Euro DD from fanatec, i'll wait until that released and Thrustmaster have to cut this price.
I've just ordered one of these for the ps5, Coming from a PS3 with The Driving Force GT Wheel, Im hoping i've not just gone full out and regret not going better or a Logitech G923 or the DD Pro
I honestly got both The TG-T and TG-T II plus the DD Pro and I honestly think that we won't see what these wheels can do until Gran Turismo 7 especially with the DD Pro. That's just what I think I may be wrong but I suspect GT7 will have full fanatec encoder support with even with their V3 pedals the motors on them like on ACC and the TG-T II's firmware is actually using the original T-GT's firmware. if you try the DD podium or DD Pro on ACC it feels like there's much more to improve on Gran Turismo 7 they don't even have an option in GTSPORT for the podium settings, DD Pro or TG-T II. I guess we'll wait and see. I sure hope so because fanatec podium and DD Pro feels amazing with full encoder support and the motors working on the pedals almost like a transducer it's awesome!
@@iamzuesthisisthetruth8864 huh it works on my PS5 that's odd are you sure? You have to turn on a setting in the actual options in ACC and then on the base there's an option you have to turn on or off as well I think it might be abs or shk on the fanatec base for the pedals I'll check when the ACC PS5 update is live bro and make a video to show how if you can't figure it out.
@@iamzuesthisisthetruth8864 hey bro the pedal vibration works in acc I'll look into it for you if you want and see what settings firmware and options are to get them back working because it's honestly amazing and you shouldn't miss out
@@apokalypz please. I have tried fantec CS. And nothing. Works in Fana Labs. But not in Any Console Racing Game. I would LOVE that feature. Thanks brother
i'd actually consider the fanatec dd but the lack of wheels & buttons for is for driving games & simulations like euro truck simulator 2 etc. make me consider the t gt 2 when it drops in price to replace my g29 for ets2, f1, fh5. etc. been using logitech since late 2014 and it really feels more and more like a toy to me. I use T3PA-Pro standalone inverted pedals and have modded my g29 shifter so it feels very natural tho. I actually don't really want to replace either the pedals or the shifter, just the wheel but i guess that ain't gonna be possible xD
@@namor696 It's a big pain to find normal reviews too. Everyone is "Go Fanatec." "Go buy DD." It's a pain to spec up and ends up being 1200 for a decent one, and then I also get slapped with import chargers. It becomes stupidly expensive.
@@nova8747 Yes i understood. My recommendations is to pick T300 if you prefer games like ETS2 or DIRT2. But if you go with Gran Turismo or other sim-racing game, G29 is good choice. Saying from my own experience.
Hi how are you & your family been keeping i hope all is well I've just bought the latest one as far as Steering & pedals from thrustmaster but is there s way you can change the peddles to load cell peddles like do it your self ? Please I would be very grateful if you could help me out on this one 🙏 . Wishing you all the best. Take care & stay safe.
The price of this is ridiculous. You can get a Fanatec CSL Elite set-up which is far superior and can also be used on multiple systems for less than the price of this.
Not really. Fanatec's GT DD Pro (CSL DD with PS compatibility) cost €699, and that's two pedals setup (minus the loadcell brake or clutch pedal, which would cost more). Another thing to consider is avaliability
Can someone please help me on where to mount the turbo power supply on my cockpit for the Thrustmaster TGT-II wheel. There is nothing in the manual. Nothing online. No hardware in the box. HELP PLEASE!
Great video again Jason. im thinking of just buying the base to upgrade from my T300. if I buy just the base and use it with my 599xx rim or my open wheel will I still get the transducer effects with gt sport and gt7 when released or will I have to buy the tgt2 rim also for the transducer to work. Thanks 🙏
Disappointed - Just set a GTii up after the G25 got it's calibration damaged having used it for 10 years or more. Significant "notches" in the rotation - it's not going to be much of an issue when in races but this is one of the primary reasons for upgrading - a smoother wheel. It's simply not smoother than a G25 which shocks me. I can see now that Direct Drive is the way to go. I have the t-lcm pedals in the post as well to seal the deal here, so I'm stuck with the GTii.... Also the paddles are loud and cheap sounding. Two things I wanted - smooth rotation and quiet paddles. Sigh.....for the price it's very disappointing. If you're not worried about price I'd say head for the Direct Drive wheels. This feels like living in the past but the t-lcm pedals might be a revelation, I'll have to wait and see.
@@buzzluxx1042 It's OK, but too expensive still for the old tech it's pushing. Good FF but too clunky. My brain's adapted by ignoring the notches now and I enjoy the FF but the look and size of it could annoy you after a while - has me wanting a larger-racing-style looking wheel. It's fine for ETS2 though...the clunky mechanical feel almost suits it. Look I'm stuck with it for a couple of years so I'm trying to be positive but I would never buy it again vs DD. Get a cheap second hand one if you must while waiting.
Hi mate, Looking to get my first wheel. Played all the GTs over the years but never had my own wheel. Should I buy this one or opt for Logitechs best. In other words is there a lot in it? Be good to get your thoughts, cheers!
This is a very good wheel for GT, especially as it has the second FFB motor. If you want something a little cheaper check my video for the Thrustmaster T248 on the channel. The Thrustmaster has a great eco system like different pedals/shifters etc, so I would always choose them over Logitech. If you want to go a step up from both of those give my Fanatec DD Pro review on the channel a watch. I hope this helps.
Was considering the DD Pro myself until I realised you have to pay an additional 22.5% (vat and import tax) on top of the £600 price taking it considerably more expensive than this wheel. Maybe worth the extra cost being DD but has definitely priced me out of it sadly.
Hey mate thanks for this video. Do you still have the wheel? I’d like to know if the transducer effect still works with GT7 on PS5. I can’t seem to find this answer anywhere.
@@GametechUK That’s great thanks for confirming! I may be going back to Thrustmaster after having too many issues with Fanatec so knowing this now pretty much seals the deal. Also if you don’t mind answering, do you think the rotational speed of the T-GT 2 is the same as the TS? I know they’re pretty much identical internally but perhaps the T-GT 2 has been set up differently? I do a lot of drifting so this is why I’d like to know. Not too many drift videos on UA-cam using the T-GT 2 but there are quite a lot with the TS.
@@BecksDrives Ah, that im not sure of, maybe compare the tech sheets, but i imagine rotation wise they would be the same. Of course more FFb will slow the rotation down of course.
In order to get special rumbles for gran tourismo 7 should i use that specific gran tourismo wheel or any other wheel i have like sparco etc? I have ts-pc ferrari 458 and i was going to use its wheel. Do i loose that rumble feature with the ts-pc wheel?
sooo wondering straight out the bat, all the suspension and stuff talk goes out the back unless in gran Turismo....huuum...im learning so besides that if you PC gaming whats the difference ... again im learning and want to know more
Hi Great review. I was looking to pick this up. Allthough put off by the price.. I was wondering are the mounting details the same as the gt1. I want to mount it on my playseat evolution rig, but I may have to drill some holes !! I asked thrustmaster direct but they provided a link to the original gt 1 drawing. It was from 2017. So things may have altered. Thanks
The TGT-II with wheel-base and rim retails for $700 , I paid $820 for the Fanatec McLaren GT3 wheel , CSL Elite pedals and CSL DD wheel-base , I believe the extra $120 I paid for the Fanatec set-up is a much better value for the money , Fanatec set the sim racing world on fire with the CSL DD wheel-base and unless beginners are their target audience Thrustmaster and Logitech will have to come up something and not that Forza Horizon looking T248
Anyone have any idea where one of these can be had? It appears its just vaporware at the moment. Lots of links to sites talking about it..not one website selling it. Also, I already have a T-GT wheel/base that I lucked into about 2 years ago on a closeout. I was not very knowledgeable at the time but over the past year or so I've come to realize I basically stole the thing (paid about 299$ for it) Over that time I've been slowly putting my sim together. Its now about complete so I'm just tweaking things and upgrading components ahead of GT7 releasing..With that said, would the T-GT 2 be worth getting as an upgrade?..Or is there not enough difference to make a difference. Thanks in advance! Edit: I did recently upgrade to the T-LCM pedals from the T3PA. I absolutely love the pedal feel on the new set...the only downside is that they do not have an option for inversion. Coming from the T3PA set, I was expecting them to have such ability. Does anyone have any knowledge on if it would be possible to set up the new T-LCM pedals inverted by cobbling together parts from the T3PA and the T-LCM?
I think when it comes to a thrustmaster dd the gt2 is only for pc and ps so what about xbox? So that tells me that something could be in the works maybe.
Is 750 dollars worth some nuances and 3 cents of silver paint? Thrustmaster needs an answer to the CSL DD. They will loose the entire mid point of thr market if not as far as new purchases go. I know people will be selling their 150s and 300s used for the next 10 years to beginners. But as far as new purchases go. Not good enough
Hi, does anybody know if the TGT 2 wheel rim will work on the T300 sevo base (or any of the others in the TM eco system? I know it will attach but interested to know if the rotary/ buttons will function. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the review. For all the Thrustmaster wheel user. This is a great help with the quick release and works good: ua-cam.com/video/Jj8sJHI8mtM/v-deo.html
Not sure if anyone asks the question but, do you actually feel road texture through the wheel? I want to be able to feel the grip even in a straight line, not just in corners.
It’s said to vary on most games with gran turismo being where it is most felt but generally yeah it says on their product page you will feel grip, slip, road texture etc etc
@@GametechUK I just find it funny that everyone is suddenly posting HONEST reviews of things. Unlike before when all reviews were dishonest? To me it feels clickbaity and silly. And frankly I think the addition of the word doesn't make it feel more honest.
@@ChrisVmovie say that to the early release of the csl dd for wave 1 buyers. I saw a second hand csl dd on OfferUp for 700$ in San Diego California only like 45 mins from me but I ain’t paying that price.
My DD pro died a month after getting it, it's been 6 weeks and Fanatic still haven't responded to my RMA, their forums are full of the same horror stories, AVOID!!!!! Their CS is non existant.
@@GametechUK ty sir. Years back they were all so iffy using a loggy g25. Really interested in that tg2 . Would rather get the t300 but ehh i like the power of the tg2. Appreciate the review and response. Would crosswinds pedals work in concert with just the tg2 base ya think? Or does the connection have to be run thru the tg2 base? I see its an rj plug not usb. Why get cheap pedals if not needed. Can't wait to try them out. Sure hard to find anything in stock now days. Just got back into playing sims. Been difficult round where i live with very limited isp service. All i have is my unlimited data slow att phone for internet. I have to rent a motel to download all my games. DCS is a big one I want to get into again with all those new maps. Would be nice to run fs sim 2022 also all rigged up. Waited for so long for starlink but I'm not payin out 500 for a box that will be obsolete in a year and 100Plus a month for service.

Well thanks for your help. Living an laughing patiently on 2 bar 4g tech! Happy days ! I guess it could be worse, living in the UK right now. GD Russian pricks!
Ive been kicking myself for selling my t300rsgt a year or so ago. Paid 300 for it when I got it new. Loved it. Theyre scalping for 600+ now. So seeing this come out was a nice thing, newer tech, for cheaper than the scalpers gouging prices. BUT I have 1 major concern. HOW AND WHY would they make this belt driven??? The rsgt was magnetic, and it was soooo nice. I never had a single issue with my rsgt. I havent been able to see any comparisons 1 to 1 with the t300rsgt and the new tgt2. How does the belt vs magnetic feel and sound? Those belts seem like a big step backwards to me. Am I missing something? Should I just bite the bullet and pay the scalpers for an rsgt? Or wait for this expensive belt driven model? Or does anyone have any recommendation for a 600 and below wheel that would be better than these for ps5?
The t300 has thermal issues where the force feedback turns down at high settings after prolonged use...the fans can't keep up. But the tgt2 is miles better and never has any thermal issues is much more powerful torque wise. It's the ultimate belt driven unit
My god they really are shooting some jibber-jabber, the fact is soon there will be dd with 8nm for 500 bucks. Throw some pedals and a wheel on top of that and you're still close to this wheel. But i get that its good for GT Sport, i bet this stupid fkin wheel caused sony to not give fanatec a license right now.
I'm looking at getting the csl dd next but now I'm thinking of just getting a tgt2 base. I've got wheels and pedals so it'll save me over £300. Is it worth it?
@@GametechUK Fair enough. Worth a shot lol. The things been out of stock since it became available in the states. Everyone who has one seems to love it

The one thing that drives me absolutely nuts about thrustmaster and the tgt is all their acronyms and flashy explanations of those acronyms, but it all still leaves you scratching your head of what it actually all means.
I bought a Sparco TS XW and have had nothing but troubles with it. Not even 24 hours and it's getting packed up to get sent back at the store.
I believe the T-GT II will have the option to buy base , base + rim , and base + rim + pedals so diff options if people wanted diff rim/pedals seperatetly.
T-GT was a cracking wheel even better with the T-LCM purchase. Have moved to Fanatec DD1 since but do miss that extra sensation you got in GT sport with the T-GT def added to that game shame was not compatible in other titles.
Yeah seperates are coming next year.
Can I use the t300 rim on the t gt2 servo ??
I am just about to switch from G29 to this steering wheel mainly on pc, thanks for the good over view on this product, cheers
And, big deference ? I mean , is it better?
Atleast give the new wheel a led Rev limiter like the fanatec or the loadcells
Love the review! How does it compare to a thrustmaster TS PC, is this better or ?
with the imminent release of the new Fanatec dd wheel, why would you pay this price for a belt driven wheel? I foresee a rather drastic price cut.
Because with the DD you need to buy the base, the hub, the wheel and the pedals, and that will be about 1500€.
@@palonazo exactly this. I keep pricing it out because I see the cost of the base, but then I go and put the literal cheapest bundle together that I can and it winds up twice the price. Plus I don't have room for a dedicated sim rig. Mines foldable. There is no way in HELL its going to handle not only the ffb but the pressures required with load cell pedals.
@@timduncan2211 Yes. It's still a good price if you plan to get serious about this hobby. But the initial investment to adopt any direct drive ecosystem, even with a Fanatec DD base, is never lower than $1300 (base, wheel, pedals, rig). If you're a casual simmer there's no way to justify the cost of this. This is for people who will spend hours and hours every week driving, who are even willing to get an extra PC with monitors and dedicate a corner of the house for it and the sim rig. Basically we're talking at least $3000 to have a rig that makes using a direct drive wheel pleasurable rather than an annoyance.
@@timduncan2211 Sorry for the late reply Tim. Yeah you can get a solid Thrustmaster for $850-$950 CAD... The Fanatec CSL DD Setup winds up being at least $1,450 CAD by the time you get it shipped to Canada.
@@palonazo the new csl dd pro is 700 euros. Nowhere close to your 1500. Plus it's sold as a bundle
Jase this is exactly what I was expecting. A real lazy effort. I think as soon as they caught wind of a cheaper DD wheel from Fanatec they decided there and then it was easier to just very slightly upgrade the TGt and throw it out with clever marketing jargon. They have years to develop a DD wheel but as predicted Logitech and thrustmaster want cheap to manufacture wheels and not involve themselves in more complicated DD units. Piss poor effort for sim racers that were expecting bigger things.
This comment did not age well. Logitech absolutely smashed it and tm brought out a decent dd wheel...both of which are a tier or two(logi pro) above the fanatec dd pro or csl dd...you get what you pay for
I’ll wait for the ps version of the fanatic CSL DD, way cheaper and better product
any idea when that one will be out? any rumours?
What makes you say it'll be better
@@ijurisic yes March 14 2022
Look I have a all thrustmaster eco system. T300 , Open Wheel add on ,tlcm pedals.
My t300 goes light after about 40 min of use.
I will switch my whole setup to a fanatec DD $350 wheel base before I pay $500 for this
I will pay $350 for this not a penny more.
T300 lowers the force feedback when it starts overheating. The problem with T300 is that in the default mode it spins the fan a little too late. You can prevent it by having the fan on from the get go, you activate this mode by pressing two specific buttons (easy to google). That way the wheel won't overheat and the FFB shouldn't fade.
I own a Thrustmaster T500RS. It’s such a good wheel and done me proud. I’ve recently purchased a PS5 and GT7 but disappointed the T500 isn’t PS5 compatible. Is the upgrade in the GT II worth it or should I buy a DriveHub to keep using my T500? It would be such a shame to relegate my T500. It’s built like a tank and still going strong.
I just bought this wheel today off of Ebay for 449 brand new. Going for the psvr 2 later on for GT7. I can't wait! 😂
Well mate just incase you haven't heard thrustmaster is bringing out there direct drive wheel before the end of this year(2021) so i can't waite for that,👍fanatec may be in for a shock i think mate, loved your video's brother keep up the good work cheers🍻🙂👍
Do you know what the name is for the upcoming wheel?
I hope so, fanatec doesn't ship to me and many other places in the world.
TM DD is delayed and also PC only. They failed us in the DD realm for the GT7 release.
How loud is it? I just bought a g923 and it’s so loud. My first wheel. Maybe will buy tgt2 after gran turismo 7 will be released.
Fantastic review.
Thx for the review and I agree on most points said. For GT players this is technically a great steering wheel, but t3pa pedals aren’t a great match with it. There are to many “old” components in this set to apprehend the price of this set. Personally I think this set is worth €450,- . Because the wheel set is already in stock and for sale, I guess the development and production line was already done when Fanatec came with the news of there “cheap” DD wheel. So in short terms , Thrustmaster haven’t got a answer to that DD wheelbase. Especially if you realize that the cheapest Fanatec setup is €630 vs €750 of the T-GT. Can’t wait to see a side by side review between those 2.
Luck you don't live in Australia cos the price on the T-GT2 is $1,489 brand new now thats bloody expensive mate😳🤔😟👍🙂
they should be coming out with a DD soon, Seen on their twitter on the roadmap they posted about a direct driver wheel base they were planning to have done end of the year or beginning into 2022. Hopefully they came out with something cheaper then the CSL DD , IF they don't Fanatic has that whole market for themselves. And to get back on the topic of this video Im sure this wheel is Great, But you can buy the CSL DD With the Pedals and the boost Kit for a very Similar price as this thrustmaster , its like 100$ more. Anybody who is actually going to spend the money for this wheel, Should Just spend a little more for the Fanatec. Only downside is it might take a couple months to get it with the Demand Rates and the shipping Backlogs. this wheel Should be like 500 Dollars, not 800.
First of all , Thrustmaster posted that there DD will be pc only. The best comparison is the T-GT2 with the GT DD pro. Both for PC and PlayStation. Full Thrustmaster set in Europe is €750 and Fanatec is €700. How I see it is Thrustmaster puts a DD on the market it will be above the T-GT and so maybe about the price point between €900 and €1200.
@@garryburns6659 Need an Australian or at least Near you to create something like this!! Maybe encourage your Civilian Sector!! Other than that!! Go to Mexico and Cross into US. The Dems will set u up with an ID SS# and a New FFB wheel!!! Lol wouldn’t surprise me!! Either way Good Luck!!
Think I’ll look at a dd next to expensive for what it is as most people have there rig sorted and want to upgrade the base only ! Think it’s for new wheel players only tbh
I guess the CSL DD is the better option than the T-GT. But Thrustmaster has one advantage. They can deliver the next day because the set is in stock and ready for PlayStation, Fanatec isn’t PlayStation ready ( at this moment ) and you have to pre order it, to get it delivered 6 months later.
Apparently the base unit will be sold standalone next year.
Fanatec just signed a deal with Sony, looks like they replaced thrustmaster as the gran turismo sponsor...which means a new wheel is coming.
@@julianmorgan79 I was going to get a new base and the new f1 wheel but think I’ll wait to see what fanatec come up with now 👍
@@ChrisVmovie yeah it’s in STOCK because every one is Pre ordering CSL Pro DD!! Is sad and the Pedals in Thrustmaster eco system is TRASH!! Even with A DD1 style wheel. Without V3 level pedals WTF are they doing???? Same pedals since 08!!! Minor Improv when Fanatec is Changing Sim Racing!!! GL
Hi, Firstly a fantastic review. I have just brought one. But I have one question please...
The 4 rotary dials, how do I assign them to, say traction control, fuel and brake balance ??? I just can see how to do it. Even google can't help me.
Thank you so very much.

Hi Jason nice review seems a bit weird bringing a second wheel out only to be different in very slight adjustments and like you said cheap pedals that go with this product make you wonder if you should part with your cash for a little bit of flashy chrome effect. If I was looking for a update in the wheel dept yes maybe would buy, but the low end fanatec is now on the market which will give it a run for its money . P.s great review
Next year they are selling just the wheel/base/pedals all separate which will help build the package you want.
Good review mate.
Crazy UK pricing, £50 more than EU.
Also cant compete with 350 Euro DD from fanatec, i'll wait until that released and Thrustmaster have to cut this price.
It's more comparable with Fanatec's GT DD Pro, which costs €699 (base model, 2 pedals).
I do get your point tho.
I've just ordered one of these for the ps5, Coming from a PS3 with The Driving Force GT Wheel, Im hoping i've not just gone full out and regret not going better or a Logitech G923 or the DD Pro
I honestly got both The TG-T and TG-T II plus the DD Pro and I honestly think that we won't see what these wheels can do until Gran Turismo 7 especially with the DD Pro. That's just what I think I may be wrong but I suspect GT7 will have full fanatec encoder support with even with their V3 pedals the motors on them like on ACC and the TG-T II's firmware is actually using the original T-GT's firmware. if you try the DD podium or DD Pro on ACC it feels like there's much more to improve on Gran Turismo 7 they don't even have an option in GTSPORT for the podium settings, DD Pro or TG-T II. I guess we'll wait and see. I sure hope so because fanatec podium and DD Pro feels amazing with full encoder support and the motors working on the pedals almost like a transducer it's awesome!
Love my V3s. Except no game supports the Throttle Pedal. ACC did for a month last year. Then Fanatec Updated Fanalabs and now nothing!!
@@iamzuesthisisthetruth8864 huh it works on my PS5 that's odd are you sure? You have to turn on a setting in the actual options in ACC and then on the base there's an option you have to turn on or off as well I think it might be abs or shk on the fanatec base for the pedals I'll check when the ACC PS5 update is live bro and make a video to show how if you can't figure it out.
@@apokalypz right. I’m on ps5. Not pc. On CSL 1.1 PS. And no pc compatible wheels lol. Soon I hope GL to you
@@iamzuesthisisthetruth8864 hey bro the pedal vibration works in acc I'll look into it for you if you want and see what settings firmware and options are to get them back working because it's honestly amazing and you shouldn't miss out

The Fanatec CSL DD says hi 🙋. (or a second hand CSL for that matter)

@@aaronrodriguez1410 the CSL is PlayStation compatible 🤦
@@chrisperry5244 not the dd
@@aaronrodriguez1410 it will come out for the ps5, but in the mean time the CSL is still a better wheelbase in every way
Ummm, hi, what headphones are those? as the mic sounds so good, thanks!
i'd actually consider the fanatec dd but the lack of wheels & buttons for is for driving games & simulations like euro truck simulator 2 etc. make me consider the t gt 2 when it drops in price to replace my g29 for ets2, f1, fh5. etc.
been using logitech since late 2014 and it really feels more and more like a toy to me. I use T3PA-Pro standalone inverted pedals and have modded my g29 shifter so it feels very natural tho. I actually don't really want to replace either the pedals or the shifter, just the wheel but i guess that ain't gonna be possible xD
Great review.....bought the fanatec tho
As a ps4 owner my question would be, how much of an upgrade would it be over a t300? Oh and I don't race gt sport and I also use T-LCM's
Quite a decent upgrade
I myself haven't tried a Direct Drive wheel yet so how do you compare this to the likes of Logitech G920 etc does this blow that FBB out the water ?
This isn't a direct drive wheel.
@@GametechUK i know that ! That's why i said how would you compare it to a Logitech g920 if you read it again
I think Fanatec may have stolen the march on this with the CSL DD!
Would you recommend a change from t300 to a tgt 2 and would an improvement be seen on the track?
Thanks
No. Go fanatec
Fanatic is 350+150+200+300 = 1000£
@@Max__apex this is what nobody counts :D :D just saying fanatec :D
@@namor696 It's a big pain to find normal reviews too.
Everyone is "Go Fanatec." "Go buy DD."
It's a pain to spec up and ends up being 1200 for a decent one, and then I also get slapped with import chargers.
It becomes stupidly expensive.
@@nova8747 Yes i understood. My recommendations is to pick T300 if you prefer games like ETS2 or DIRT2. But if you go with Gran Turismo or other sim-racing game, G29 is good choice. Saying from my own experience.
One thing can u change the wheel with the new T-GT 2 base???
Hi how are you & your family been keeping i hope all is well I've just bought the latest one as far as Steering & pedals from thrustmaster but is there s way you can change the peddles to load cell peddles like do it your self ? Please I would be very grateful if you could help me out on this one 🙏 . Wishing you all the best. Take care & stay safe.
So buy GT DD Pro.
The price of this is ridiculous. You can get a Fanatec CSL Elite set-up which is far superior and can also be used on multiple systems for less than the price of this.
Not really. Fanatec's GT DD Pro (CSL DD with PS compatibility) cost €699, and that's two pedals setup (minus the loadcell brake or clutch pedal, which would cost more).
Another thing to consider is avaliability
Me being a GT7 player that has never used a wheel, would upgrading to the t-lcm pedals be worth it?? What sort of a difference would it be??
Can someone please help me on where to mount the turbo power supply on my cockpit for the Thrustmaster TGT-II wheel. There is nothing in the manual. Nothing online. No hardware in the box. HELP PLEASE!
The TGT2 is 100 bucks more then the CSL GT Bundle. I think I will go with Fanatec.
I see TM went to the same school of rereleasing the same product as logitech did.
Spoilt iPhone generation brat 😂
@@Max__apex Its OK if you like buying outdated and overpriced crap, dont have to get mad at other people about it.
Good review, how much is it Jason?
Is this out anywhere yet in the UK? The original announcement said from 1st Sep?
Great video again Jason.
im thinking of just buying the base to upgrade from my T300.
if I buy just the base and use it with my 599xx rim or my open wheel will I still get the transducer effects with gt sport and gt7 when released or will I have to buy the tgt2 rim also for the transducer to work. Thanks 🙏
The transucer is just on the base, so that will work fine regardless of rim.
@@GametechUK Thank you so much that has just saved me a couple of hundred euro ! Top man 👍
Disappointed - Just set a GTii up after the G25 got it's calibration damaged having used it for 10 years or more. Significant "notches" in the rotation - it's not going to be much of an issue when in races but this is one of the primary reasons for upgrading - a smoother wheel. It's simply not smoother than a G25 which shocks me. I can see now that Direct Drive is the way to go. I have the t-lcm pedals in the post as well to seal the deal here, so I'm stuck with the GTii.... Also the paddles are loud and cheap sounding. Two things I wanted - smooth rotation and quiet paddles. Sigh.....for the price it's very disappointing. If you're not worried about price I'd say head for the Direct Drive wheels. This feels like living in the past but the t-lcm pedals might be a revelation, I'll have to wait and see.
Do you still not like it? With the fanatec dd pro gt being out of stock forever was thinking of going TM.
@@buzzluxx1042 It's OK, but too expensive still for the old tech it's pushing. Good FF but too clunky. My brain's adapted by ignoring the notches now and I enjoy the FF but the look and size of it could annoy you after a while - has me wanting a larger-racing-style looking wheel. It's fine for ETS2 though...the clunky mechanical feel almost suits it.
Look I'm stuck with it for a couple of years so I'm trying to be positive but I would never buy it again vs DD. Get a cheap second hand one if you must while waiting.
Hi mate,
Looking to get my first wheel. Played all the GTs over the years but never had my own wheel. Should I buy this one or opt for Logitechs best. In other words is there a lot in it? Be good to get your thoughts, cheers!
This is a very good wheel for GT, especially as it has the second FFB motor. If you want something a little cheaper check my video for the Thrustmaster T248 on the channel. The Thrustmaster has a great eco system like different pedals/shifters etc, so I would always choose them over Logitech.
If you want to go a step up from both of those give my Fanatec DD Pro review on the channel a watch. I hope this helps.
Was considering the DD Pro myself until I realised you have to pay an additional 22.5% (vat and import tax) on top of the £600 price taking it considerably more expensive than this wheel. Maybe worth the extra cost being DD but has definitely priced me out of it sadly.
Yeah the tax does change things somewhat.
@@GametechUK Thanks very much for your detailed reply. I'll check out your other videos and make a decision. 👍
Hey mate thanks for this video. Do you still have the wheel? I’d like to know if the transducer effect still works with GT7 on PS5. I can’t seem to find this answer anywhere.
I have, my son uses it daily. And the transponder works very well in GT7.
@@GametechUK That’s great thanks for confirming! I may be going back to Thrustmaster after having too many issues with Fanatec so knowing this now pretty much seals the deal.
Also if you don’t mind answering, do you think the rotational speed of the T-GT 2 is the same as the TS? I know they’re pretty much identical internally but perhaps the T-GT 2 has been set up differently? I do a lot of drifting so this is why I’d like to know. Not too many drift videos on UA-cam using the T-GT 2 but there are quite a lot with the TS.
@@BecksDrives Ah, that im not sure of, maybe compare the tech sheets, but i imagine rotation wise they would be the same. Of course more FFb will slow the rotation down of course.
In order to get special rumbles for gran tourismo 7 should i use that specific gran tourismo wheel or any other wheel i have like sparco etc? I have ts-pc ferrari 458 and i was going to use its wheel. Do i loose that rumble feature with the ts-pc wheel?
sooo wondering straight out the bat, all the suspension and stuff talk goes out the back unless in gran Turismo....huuum...im learning so besides that if you PC gaming whats the difference ... again im learning and want to know more
Still waiting for T818 on ps5 .
Hi Great review. I was looking to pick this up. Allthough put off by the price.. I was wondering are the mounting details the same as the gt1. I want to mount it on my playseat evolution rig, but I may have to drill some holes !! I asked thrustmaster direct but they provided a link to the original gt 1 drawing. It was from 2017. So things may have altered. Thanks
Mountings are exactly the same.
@@GametechUK many thanks for the prompt reply
1 more question.. do the supplied pedals have screw holes ?? And what about the T-LCM pedal set.. do they have screw holes also ??
Yeah the pedals have standard screw holes. The TLCM's have 4.
@@GametechUK lovely jubbley. thanks

Anyone have a current/updated release date for it? Since it obviously didn't come out in Oct this year like was originally planned?
I have this steering wheel for two weeks and it smells like Chinese plastic when I play it
Is the servo base in the original T-GT the same as a T300?
Hi is it worth getting even if you don’t play gt sport?
Only play f1 thanks
I'm not ready to commit to Fanatecs pricey ecosystem so I bought this from the TSPC.
Cool. You like it?
@@GametechUK Coming in today! Ordered just the wheel base. Got the Sparco/open wheel addon already and clubsport v3 pedals waiting for it 👌
Lovely. Enjoy. Don't forget to upgrade the firmware before you play.
T -gII base or T300 base for SF1000?
The TGT-II with wheel-base and rim retails for $700 , I paid $820 for the Fanatec McLaren GT3 wheel , CSL Elite pedals and CSL DD wheel-base , I believe the extra $120 I paid for the Fanatec set-up is a much better value for the money , Fanatec set the sim racing world on fire with the CSL DD wheel-base and unless beginners are their target audience Thrustmaster and Logitech will have to come up something and not that Forza Horizon looking T248
Are the buttons on the wheel working for F1 2021?
Does it work well with older titles like dirt 4 and crew 2 ?
Where is the gear shifter?
Can you drift with it ?
Anyone have any idea where one of these can be had? It appears its just vaporware at the moment. Lots of links to sites talking about it..not one website selling it.
Also, I already have a T-GT wheel/base that I lucked into about 2 years ago on a closeout. I was not very knowledgeable at the time but over the past year or so I've come to realize I basically stole the thing (paid about 299$ for it)
Over that time I've been slowly putting my sim together. Its now about complete so I'm just tweaking things and upgrading components ahead of GT7 releasing..With that said, would the T-GT 2 be worth getting as an upgrade?..Or is there not enough difference to make a difference. Thanks in advance!
Edit: I did recently upgrade to the T-LCM pedals from the T3PA. I absolutely love the pedal feel on the new set...the only downside is that they do not have an option for inversion. Coming from the T3PA set, I was expecting them to have such ability. Does anyone have any knowledge on if it would be possible to set up the new T-LCM pedals inverted by cobbling together parts from the T3PA and the T-LCM?
I think when it comes to a thrustmaster dd the gt2 is only for pc and ps so what about xbox? So that tells me that something could be in the works maybe.
Is 750 dollars worth some nuances and 3 cents of silver paint? Thrustmaster needs an answer to the CSL DD. They will loose the entire mid point of thr market if not as far as new purchases go. I know people will be selling their 150s and 300s used for the next 10 years to beginners. But as far as new purchases go. Not good enough
Hi, does anybody know if the TGT 2 wheel rim will work on the T300 sevo base (or any of the others in the TM eco system? I know it will attach but interested to know if the rotary/ buttons will function. Thanks in advance.
Does the quick release screw have to be tightened so that it goes all the way in?
Yes.

Not sure if anyone asks the question but, do you actually feel road texture through the wheel? I want to be able to feel the grip even in a straight line, not just in corners.
It’s said to vary on most games with gran turismo being where it is most felt but generally yeah it says on their product page you will feel grip, slip, road texture etc etc

This is crazy, can't see upgrading from my TMX pro to the T-GT for $649 -$699 when Fanatec DD pro is $699 bundle. Disappointing SMH
Ive been kicking myself for selling my t300rsgt a year or so ago. Paid 300 for it when I got it new. Loved it. Theyre scalping for 600+ now. So seeing this come out was a nice thing, newer tech, for cheaper than the scalpers gouging prices. BUT I have 1 major concern. HOW AND WHY would they make this belt driven??? The rsgt was magnetic, and it was soooo nice. I never had a single issue with my rsgt. I havent been able to see any comparisons 1 to 1 with the t300rsgt and the new tgt2. How does the belt vs magnetic feel and sound? Those belts seem like a big step backwards to me. Am I missing something? Should I just bite the bullet and pay the scalpers for an rsgt? Or wait for this expensive belt driven model? Or does anyone have any recommendation for a 600 and below wheel that would be better than these for ps5?
As far as i was aware the T300 is also dual belt driven. So it would feel and sound very similar outside of GT Sport.
The t300 has thermal issues where the force feedback turns down at high settings after prolonged use...the fans can't keep up. But the tgt2 is miles better and never has any thermal issues is much more powerful torque wise. It's the ultimate belt driven unit
is your racing sim and flight simultaor on different setups ?
Yes they are. Here is a recent room tour: ua-cam.com/video/T9al_nsF75E/v-deo.html
