Thrustmaster T300RS GT Review is it Worth it in 2023?

[@JustinHackertMuzak]

I love how everyone complains about the sounds these sim wheels make but forget the fact that when your in a real car all you hear it sounds🤣

[@Sir.YeetusIII]

Literally not the same thing

[@JustinHackertMuzak]

@@Sir.YeetusIII but it is still sounds.. just cuz they dont sound the same doesnt make my comment null.. I ment..when ur driving in real life everything aint quiet.. its noisy... And with the sim wheels making noise ..whats the big deal? I mean its racing.. its supposed to be loud!

[@Sir.YeetusIII]

@@JustinHackertMuzak except you don't drive a racecar in your living room. Ideally you'd want to strike a balance of fun and sound so you're not annoying everyone in the house, when you're racing irl you're only around other race cars in an environment where being loud is acceptable around people who are fine with the noise, when you're sim racing at home you're, well, at home, definitely not the same thing. Also, my car is way quieter than the clanking of a g29. Unless you have a hoopty, a bowl of rice or a clapped out sports car, your car isn't nearly as loud.

FACTS

[@tednicholl7025]

I've had my T300RS GT for about six months and it's awesome for the money, certainly more realistic than my G29 ever was. The brake pedal has only one position because with the arm being made of plastic, if the pedal was offset it would cause too much sideways flex and potentially break causing a lot of warranty and disappointed customers. Makes sense to me since the other pedals move laterally that this should never be an issue, simply move the other pedals. Any entry level setup needs work in order to be a decent sim wheel as opposed to an arcade wheel that it is out of the box. Even the T300 benefits from the Noctua fan upgrade and the metal bearings and cog replacement. These upgrades provide hours of continuous use without overheating and causing degradation of the FFB or slippage of the wheels center position. The potentiometer based pedals are just fine for entry level pedals and compared to the Logitech pedals, the potentiometers are much better quality and don't have a silly pseudo load cell attempt with awful firmware and software. Having owned both the G29 and T300, there's no contest, T300RS GT for an affordable entry level sim setup all the way!✌😎

[@SSRT_JubyDuby8742]

Yes mate, got a second hand one about 2mths ago, the difference to me from the G29 can be as much as aa second, track dependent. Unfortunately my servo is on it's last legs and has to be manually calibrated in game after the wheel has finished it's fit 😁. I will be buying a replacement servo soon. It also came with an extra wheel which was the first Ferrari add on. I did not use it for about two weeks, thinking it a toy. That was a mistake, that second that I spoke of, half of that belongs to that wheel. Happy New year Jack 😁, I hope that you, your misses and the new edition have a fantastic trouble free year in which you all fair well. 🫂❤️ Like deployed 👍

[@Zafra991]

That’s very nice mate! Many thanks JubyJinx, happy new year to you and your family too 🙌👍

[@austingtir]

These are the best just above entry level wheel imo. Its just a shame thrustmaster insists on asking a bit too much for them considering how long they've been around. I have an older T300 Ferrari GTE with the two pedals. Its probably 9 years old. Yet it still works on ps5 and gt7 acceptably considering how old it is. If thrustmaster lowered the price to a more realistic 5 to 600NZD they'd blow the G923 and logitech away. And even then I reckon these are worth another couple hundred over the g923 just for the no noise and lack of gear feeling the g923's have.

[@JayeT5000]

Just got mine price matched brand new for 589AUD 🔥💪🏾

[@philmoregain]

Thanks, just bought this wheel for 290€ and iam so excited to Play GT 7 with it! I only ever played Racing Games with a Controller

[@slimdog08]

please clean ur room

[@ZacharyGamer]

glad to see i'm not the only one with dust in their room

[@RA_Bernal]

Bought mine back in July with the T-LCM pedals and never looked back since!

[@Zafra991]

I believe I’ll be doing the same with Thrustmaster for the coming years 😎

[@neonnerd1364]

I just got one yesterday. I switched from a g920. I was running a real wheel on it that I swapped over to my t300rs gt and the difference between the 2 is night and day. Why I bought a g920 in the first place is beyond me.

[@dndndn3004]

I scared that it will just break instantly because I have seen so many bad issues online

[@BGP369]

This video was the clincher for me, my first wheel will be this model. 25% off for black friday here, which is pretty good.

[@DBoone123]

I got one but paid way over retail 🤡

[@Mattibumbe_1]

this mans room is dustier than that one cabinet I have in my basement 💀Still a good video though! thanks for the review :)

[@EmoDKTsuchiya]

Got an RS for $250 and it was absolutely worth it

[@marty9059]

great review man, and i think il go ahead and get 1!

[@Zafra991]

Good stuff! Glad you enjoyed it buddy 👍😊

[@Kieran_OPC]

So the base says ps4/ps5 but you say it defo plays on ps3 is that still the case? I plan to play all 3 HD consoles with this steering wheel

[@simplyracing04]

Love mine i have 2 of them my daily use one and i picked up a back up used all i really wanted was rhe t3pa pro pedals but got the pedals and rhe wheel for 170 bucks so i now have a back up wheel and servo

[@thedave7760]

Same thing happened to me very generous seller even gave me a decent wheel base stand.

[@java1708]

One question concerning how the clutch engine react, for example, what happen when releasing the clutch so quickly (in normal car it would stop engine), and other case deliberately pushing the clutch while gasing at the same time etc..

[@fajaradi1223]

It cost the same as Moza R3 bundle. At least here where I live. Not worth at all.

[@Shadowvisor]

Will this wheel be supported for years to come? It's already pretty old. I'm planning to buy one at the end of the month

[@Zafra991]

I believe so, it works completely fine on PC and PS5 so I could see this being a good long term option for either platform👍

[@bgdaddy42069]

oh ya you can even use the wheel and pedals and just upgrade the base. ever thrustmaster wheel fit ever thrustmaster base. even the new thrustmaster direct drive whel base fit with an adapter they will start selling

[@benkoskinen3871]

Is this overkill for just trying/practicing to learn to drive a car ? Should I get a wheel without force feedback instead? I was looking at a used G29 in a local store too but reddit comments say the T300 rs gt is a better use of money.

[@fbcvxbnfgdgh]

Any wheel will do if you're trying to learn for normal road use.

[@stevemartis97]

G29 or T150 pro should be good to start off.

[@Heart7Throb7]

Which one you got ???

[@Realbraw]

Vacuum bro

[@GoldenKnight702]

Found it used on Amazon for $287

[@Skieyt2819]

Can I drift with it? Or is it just a racing wheel?

[@Greatgoku4]

Yes it's a drifting wheel as well. The t248 isn't a wheel for drifting. But t300 is versatile for all applications

[@Skieyt2819]

@@Greatgoku4 thank you and I'm buying T300rs GT and Th8a Shifter very soon and I'm buying a cheap handbrake as well is that good enough for a beginner?

[@Skieyt2819]

@@Greatgoku4 also one last question should I buy assetto corsa or carx in ps4?

[@Greatgoku4]

@@Skieyt2819 you should try buying both but I like assetto corsa more as it's good for more options and has better physics in general. Carx is great for drift physics only. And yes that setup is not only good for beginners but Many pros still use it

[@ruthun]

Really finding it tough deciding between the G923 and this wheel. It's for casual gaming with my kid - 7 years old - on PS5.

[@liamsmith455]

Bro if i turn on ffb and put it on 20 ffb then does it wil heat much or not ? How to make sure how long it last ?.

[@mm-qv8gb]

Where in the u.s. can i buy this new? Shows sold out everywhere

[@diysai]

It's shocking that the pedal design is so cheap and non durable. The only reason I would choose logitech instead.

[@ethankim2142]

Logitech G27 finally gave out on me. Ordered the T300rs gt looking forward to belt driven motors

[@humzasagheer1018]

How is it going? Do you also use gear shifter or only paddle shifters

[@Charzilian]

I'm debating whether to get T tg2 or t300. Not sure which I'll get yet.

[@Zafra991]

I can’t say I’ve ever used the TGT 2 but I can imagine the t300 being a little more underpowered when compared to the newer TGT 2, let me know what you decide in the end 👍

[@Chaos_Dave98]

Tgt 2 is to expensive imo

[@Greatgoku4]

T300 is a much better value and has been used by pros for years

[@Tokyo-c]

Could you plug in 2 thrustmaster accessories in the wheel

[@Greatgoku4]

Yes you can use both shifter and handbrake with this wheel

[@ethswitch7303]

Hey I need help, so if I get this wheel and play grand trismo but i play grand trismo on ps5, so should i get the ps5 one or the grand trismo one?

[@eshiithefennec]

I am unsure where you are located but would you or anyone else know where i could buy replacement clamp and a US standard power cable for the T300RS GT? I got it used for free from a friend who never realized they were missing as they never used it.

[@uriel313.]

Where can I buy the t300? I can't seem to find it in stock anywhere.

[@ewandixon2118]

ik, I've been looking too. They have them on amazon but you have to pay $200 more than msrp

[@Zafra991]

I've checked online retailers such as Amazon UK and Argos and both websites have the bundle available at this current time. Prices have gone up too since the Black Friday sales but keep an eye out for sales on this unit.

[@Brooklyntguy-eh2gl]

Does this base work on F1 23?

[@shahmeerae]

you have the same monitor as me lol

[@Rx7Fc88]

Question just bought a t300 pre owned for my ps4 but the wheel center logo is the PlayStation logo not the thrustmaster logo is that something to be concerned about ? Plus it also came with the 3 pedals not the 2 pedals

[@yahyasajid5113]

Just means it's the GT version

[@WhitzPal]

Literally just book will get it tomorrow happy

[@rudrarajsingh6224]

Hey what is the deal with different looking boxes of T300 RS Which one is the newer version of the wheel, which one should I buy?

[@wanderinghermes]

I believe the T300 RS GT is newer. From my research, the difference is the pedals. I'm new and still researching my first steering wheel.

[@markn7533]

This or the G923?

[@fajaradi1223]

Go check Moza R3 bundle. If they're available for a lil bit more than a T300, get the Moza R3 bundle.

[@o_o_CHR1S_o_o]

T300 club 💪

[@Zafra991]

I have arrived 😎

[@tednicholl7025]

M6 screws for mounting, not M4✌😎

[@imwidetoya5206]

When was it actually released?

[@fox_eu]

What is the difference between the t300 rs and t300 rs gt?

[@S4MIR_]

The pedals

[@wingless747]

You get a playstation logo and a clutch pedal for the gt

[@casper_flach]

how is the brake and trottle pressure

[@h.castelo9407]

The T300 may be replaced by a new model this year! I look forward to it!

[@Zafra991]

Let’s keep an eye out, I’d be interested to see what Thrustmaster produce 👌

[@chrisii121]

Where did you get this information ?

[@ekkimukk2039]

Any news about that ?

[@Kpaxlol]

3:00 WutFace

[@Andywooo]

pretty sure is discontinued now

[@Zafra991]

It can still be purchased new from online retailers such as Amazon, Argos and many more 👍

[@naybother4430]

Do you play ACC on ps5? Would be keen to see what wheel settings you use

[@Zafra991]

I usually play on pc but I do have the ps5 version, I’ll do a video on my settings for both 😊

[@VelvetGoldminer]

I’d also be keen to see this. I have ACC on PS5 and the FFB is awful

[@heddshot87]

@@VelvetGoldminer I have ACC and this wheel for PS5, I play mainly GT7. ACC feedback doesn't feel as clean as GT7 tbh. I imagine PC mods and settings make it better.

[@MrBreakfluid]

How do you adjust the traction control and fueling in-game on this Thrustmaster wheel while the race is ongoing in GT7?

[@aldirinaldi9164]

G923 or t300 rs gt ?

[@deaf1972]

T300rs

[@Zafra991]

I haven’t used the Logitech G923 but comparing this to the G29 I can comfortably say the t300rs gt 👍

[@austingtir]

Deff the t300.

[@ballsballs8916]

Should I get the t300 gt, or the thrustmaster ts-xw racer?
