I have been playing with my Destiny force feedback wheel for almost two years now, and I've decided it's time to upgrade my system. I have heard that it's possible to get a gearstick with 6 gears selectable like a real manual car. Having played F355 challenge in the arcade, I was wondering if it was possible to get a clutch to go with it as well. Does anyone know where I can get either of these, how much they cost and what games they are compatible with?

Dunno about a clutch, but the gear stick is the RS Shifter which attaches to a Force RS FF wheel (although some people have been able to modify other wheels to work with it), both of which come from Act Labs. Support for the RS Shifter used to be sktechy but has recently improved considerably. Check out www.act-labs.com for pricing/ordering info, and they ship the wheels to most countries if you can't get them retail.
