I've been watching this guy for years and I'm only "lightly" into the hobby, but have been getting more into it lately, always quality content. Just picked one of these up yesterday, can't wait for it to get here.
Just because I have it and have tried it. My nissan 350z knobs fits on the TH8A which is a M10x1.25. I had my NISMO duracon on it for the longest time. and it never unscrewed or wiggled.
And it is the logical way for it to be. I would not even use more than six gears if I had this shifter. 8 way looks a bit ridiculous. If the neutral were not offset, I would consider this product to be unusable.
Well it COSTS more than many wheels. I certainly wouldn't say it's _worth_ more that most wheels. You can have a lot of fun playing games with a racing wheel with no external shifter. I doubt it would be much fun playing games with shifter but no wheel.
@@davecarsley8773 Depends on the car of course. Driving stickshifts with paddles can feel a little weird because of the delay. Stick and clutch is a lot of fun!
Great review (as ever). I've used this TH8A primarily as a H shifter. Recently I bought a Fanatec SQ1.5 and the TH8A serves as an analog handbrake now.
I bought one of these awhile before I got my fanatec H-pattern.. I got the ricmotech sequential mod for it and use it as a up high SQ shifter now.. works great gives you that resistance and click feel for cheap.
I was using the little shifters that come with the Fanatec CSR wheel for years until my H-Pattern broke. I bought the TH8A to replace it and I've really enjoyed using it.
I'm not a very intelligent man. I bought this shifter because I saw two words "thrustmaster" and "in stock" (technically it's three words...work with me here) . It was only after I closed my eyes and hit the "submit order" button that I realized my folly of not actually knowing what I bought. I frantically did what normal well adjusted people would do, go to UA-cam. Yours was the first video that popped up and you've answered every single question I should have had. Now I know I made a good choice for my needs and budget. Thank you!! Subscribed!
Thanks for a good review. It's getting to the point where the vast majority of UA-cam product reviews are little more than mindless advertising where some idiot merely parrots a feature list. You learn nothing more than what the manufacturer wants you to know. But, I love these reviews that take stuff apart so I can see inside. For technically inclined people, there is no substitute for being able to see how something works and how it is built before laying out the cash to buy it. I've now watched several of these. Thanks for all of them. You have a great eye for important details.
I love my ricmotec sequential plate for th8 shifter but cut one coil off each spring inside to make it lighter. Also the 3DRAP mod for “h pattern is great and gives detent feeling but will wear out over few months with heavy use. Great review as always thanks Barry
This is great, My shifter arrived today, I se it up on the PC, Straight forward drivers from Thrust Master, Has a usb dongle adapter for PC,, I ordered a new CSL DD from Fanatec for $479.00 with the power cord for up graded power, Wanted to save some money so I bought this one to use with my CSL when it comes in in November, For it works great on the T300. $200 is a little step but it is vary solid feeling and with some adjustments it will work good for practice. Thank You for the video, I like how you take your time explaining things. Best Regards
Excellent review as usual Barry, I use that shifter and this is a very accurate review of that unit. But more importantly, are those the new PT-2 pedals??
Great review as always...liked that you take items apart so to see how they work as in this case I have a dead TH8RS after many years of use...now I am more confident at taking it apart to see whats wrong with it....although I have replaced the TH8RS with the newer Thrustmaster TSS Handbrake SPARCO Mod shifter.
I love the neutral being set between the first 4 gears, because usually nascar cars only have 4 gears, and any other cars really use paddle shifters on a wheel.
Hello bro, I wonder if we could we assign custom routes in this shifter? I mean I would like to assign Reverse to upper left which is place of 1st gear in this shifter and then assign 1st gear where the 3rd gear is to match with the shifter of the manual car I am going to use?
Great video! Personally as a big h-pattern enthusiast, I enjoyed using my TH8A for about a year and a half until the desk clamp developed so much movement that I was going to have to hardmount it. However, before I could do this, I found a week-old Fanatec Clubsport SQ V1.5 on the iRacing forums. Having used that Clubsport shifter for a couple of months, I can say that while the TH8A beats the TSW Speedshifter, SST Lightning, and Act Labs RS2006 H-Pattern shifters, the Fanatec has officially ruined the Thrustmaster one for me...
I was like you Barry. I too had issues with the lack of feedback, or how I'd put it... it is like you're stirring with a stick in a metal pot, looking for the right gear. Personally, I had the TH8 RS which is internally identical apart from the detachable wire. When the Fanatec CSS Sq came out I got it and that was a day and night difference, and it became more reliable last year when I got my internals upgraded by Fanatec from V1 to V1.5 (potentiometers to HAL-effect sensors). Personally I don't feel like having to get anything better than the Fanatec, but the Thrustmaster TH8 definitely left me hungry for more. Which is why I'd rather advice the Fanatec one rather than have a fellow simracer buy twice.
I love the way this shifter looks like an old blender. And yes, I'm not kidding. I want one, but I'll probably get a Logitech one dues the price. The offset part of the stick is due the fact that most carts have 5+R patterns, where the neutral position is aligned with 3rd and 4th gates. While yes, Thrustmaster could center the neutral position, it would make it more difficult to engage the 3rd thru 6th positions. You see, in a 5+R diagram, to engage 3rd and 4th, you just need to push the stick forward and back. If you make it central in a 7+R, every position requires to move the stick a bit left or right.
Great video, do you have a video on how to unscrew the stock long gear knob shaft or instructions on how to do it please? I'm fitting a shorter gear knob shaft.
Great in depth video, thanks for that! Can you please tell me dimensions between 4 M6 screw holes I want to purchase this shifter and I want to purchase extra mount for playseat challenge x and I want to know exact dimensions of four holes... Thanks in advance!
No other review mentioned that you can rotate the shifter. I have a corner desk which means something like the G25 shifter I've been using until the sensors for first and second recently shat themselves is off at a 45° angle, making shifting difficult to say the least.
3:00 when you are charging £160 for a gear shifter you can afford to put a good connector on it. to put into perspective I just bought a thrustmaster TMX pro wheel and pedal set and that only cost £150 (sure it's an entry level wheel and I got a good deal on it but there is FAR more mechanical and electronic parts in the wheel and it also came with a triple pedal set) it shows this "accessory" on the box............. an accessory shouldn't cost more than the thing it is the accessory of. I expected this to be about 50 quid tops, at the end of the day its a magnet on a stick with a £2 hall sensor how the hell TM can justify 160 for this is anybodies guess.
Nice video! Can I ask for advice about a small issue but really annoys me? I have Obutto R3volution rig and TH8A shifter. The shifter is high and unrealistic position, should I put a smaller thus lower knob? or Find a shorter stick? Or can I find the peace of Obutto where I fix the gear shift similar to the origonal but shorter? I am bad at DIY.
Can anyone help me, whats the dim cable called that connects the shifter to the steering wheel, mines broken and I can't find any spare ones, I'm on xbox, so could somebody help 😊👍
Do the th8a shifters come with that din to mini din cable in the US ? I bought the t248 wheel and was looking to buy a th8a shifter but in the uk you only get the usb lead for some reason and i cant find the din lead for sale, dont know why it isnt supplied when its needed for their wheels
Hey Guys, i Try my best english and have a question. Is IT possible to unplug zur Staff? I ASK cause i will reduce The Sound of shifting. So i will unplug zur Staff an Cover it With Rubber sleeve. Thanks. Greetings
Hey, just a question about the th8a shifter. I have a wheel stand and want to hard mount the shifter. How do I hard mount the shifter and are the nessesery screws included or will I have to get them Elsewhere? Any help is appreciated 👍

I was u would take apart the electronics. I have this shifter, but need a new cable, and I cannot find the same DIN plugs anywhere as solder components. So I have to wire it from the board. Would have been useful to see
Greetings. I am considering this with the Thrustmaster T300 RS GT. Two questions are, will that wheel work with PS5 and GT7, and will this TH8 be too tall and bother my peripheral view when mounted on the same table/height as the wheelbase and the tv? Elsewhere I have heard I need to make sure the TH8 works with the specific wheelbase in use. Also, I wonder if GT7 will correspond with real life-cars, in terms of numbers of gears, so that a car really having 4 gears, does not have 5 in game. I hope these questions can be answeared. Thanks in advance to anyone answearing.
Hi SRG, i must say this video helped me alot to understand how much this shifter can do for me. Also i am very intrigued by your rig, can you please give me details on your rig? What cockpit it is, specs of the DD wheel and pedals, pc config etc. i want to go full out and if you can where one can buy all of the equipment needed for a sim like yours! Thanks for the video, it was amazing and in depth!! Regards
I just bought at a very good price the Thrustmaster T300 RS GT Edition and I was considering to buy this shifter too because I found it also at a good price. I have a question. How can I shift into 8th and 9th gear in a car . Yesterday I was testing the wheel to see if everything was ok and I tested it forst in The Crew 2. I picked up a Mercedes-Benz GLC 250 4Matic Coupe and I noticed that the car has actually 9 gears. So I was wondering how can you shift into 8th and 9th gear with this the TH9A shifter because it only has 7 forward gears.
@@mariussundsvalen So there is this Dutch company owned by the Bleekemolen family called Bleekemolens Raceplanet. You can rent a few cars for a track day at zandvoort with instructors. One of these cars was a small formula car with a sequential gearbox. They told us to use the clutch when shifting. It could be that you dont need to use the clutch in these cars, but that they tell you to do it anyway to keep the wear down, since these cars are heavily used.
hi sir. i recently bought my th8a shifter and the little black wire detached from the mini bored under the shifter plate and the shifter wont work. is there any way of fixing this issue?
Barry I know this is old and possibly you know the answer to this already. But since you have access to this stuff already and I don’t want to shell out the cash to test this I figured I can ask you. I have a Logitech g920 at home that I play on my series x and occasionally a pc, I know this shifter would work on pc but what about on Xbox series x paired with the g920 ? I play project cars, pc2, acc and forza horizon + Motorsport.
do you know of any one selling the usb cable i recently picked up a th8a on ebay and it only had the cable that plugs into the base?plus thank you for all your indepth videos. making you my first choice for such a problem
I'm assuming you already contacted the seller to see if they still had it. So I would go to the Thrusmaster support section, and use the "contact us for this product" button to inquire on the availability. support.thrustmaster.com/en/product/th8a-en/
I've noticed you use this shifter a lot now. Any reason why? Why use this thrustmaster over something like the fanatec? which is supposedly "better". Thanks Barry, always enjoy your videos
Hi I have a question I'm planning on buying me a G 920 gaming wheel with pedals that will hook up to the Xbox One s I was wondering if that shifter will hook up to the g920 or the Xbox so I can play Forza Motorsport 6

@@DerHeigler does it work with the T150?
@@squirrelgamer13 I think it does
Is this compatible with a th80 racing wheel
Are there any custom handles for this shifter?
I see your testing the PT-2's
Yep!
Does it work if you plug it into your pc?
I have an Audi R8 and this shifter feels very similar to the feel of the manual shifter in my car
Alex Adams I can tell this is a lie as the Audi R8 never came with a manual transmission.
@@durselegion3297 you fucking moron
