MOZA R9 V3 and FSR2 Formula Wheel BundlevsVNM Simulation Complete Control Bundle – Shifter, Handbrake V1.5 & 3-Pedal Set

The Bottom Line

The MOZA R9 V3 and FSR2 Formula Wheel Bundle delivers a high-end direct-drive steering foundation, whereas the VNM Simulation Complete Control Bundle provides the essential footwork and manual shifting inputs to complete a cockpit. Choosing between them depends entirely on whether you need to establish your primary steering feedback or round out your rig with premium pedals and secondary controls.

Watch out

The VNM shifter can suffer from sensor drift or misdetected gears in H-pattern mode, sometimes requiring a DIY fix like wrapping internal screws in electrical tape. Additionally, the MOZA Pit House software features highly extensive settings that some drivers find overwhelming and difficult to configure.

Note

Switching the VNM shifter between H-pattern and sequential modes requires tools and takes a few minutes. Meanwhile, the MOZA FSR2 wheel features a highly responsive 4.3-inch touchscreen, though you may find it gimmicky since you will rarely look down at it while actively racing.

8.0
Value Rating

The Verdict

If you need to establish your core steering system, the MOZA R9 V3 and FSR2 Formula Wheel Bundle is a highly capable direct-drive setup, currently priced at $919.00. However, if you already have a wheelbase and want to upgrade your inputs, the VNM Simulation Complete Control Bundle at $1,157.10 offers exceptional CNC aluminum pedals, a shifter, and a handbrake to complete your cockpit.
