Sorry about that. In the past we’ve had some pretty rough experiences shipping to countries outside of North America and Europe, which is why we don’t offer it anymore.
For the Middle East and Southeast Asia specifically, we’ve had a bunch of cases where packages took a very long time or never showed up, and then randomly got returned to us months later. It’s been too unreliable, and we don’t want you stuck waiting (or dealing with a lost package).
If it’s truly the same price, I’d go MOZA RS V2 with the R21 Ultra. The wheelbase is the thing you feel constantly, and 21Nm gives you way more headroom than a 12Nm La Prima. That headroom is what makes DD feel effortless and detailed instead of you always running the base near its limit.
I’d only pick the Asetek bundle if what you really want is the wheel itself: a nicer button box, more inputs, a more modular rim-swapping setup, and you already like the Asetek ecosystem and plan to climb up to a Forte/Invicta base later. If you’re trying to maximize the actual driving upgrade right now, i'd pick Moza
GT Omega PRIME: Yeah, it’s a solid rig. It’s the entry level into proper 8020/profile cockpits, which means it’s stiff enough for DD and load cells without doing the flexy wobble thing you get on cheaper frames. It’s not the fanciest profile rig on earth, but for the money it’s hard to hate. If you’re building around a 15Nm base, the prime is the kind of cockpit that actually lets you use that wheelbase properly.
Simagic Alpha (15Nm) vs Logitech G920: Huge upgrade. Like, not even close. The G920 is an old-school gear-driven wheel, so it’s weaker, noisier, and you lose a ton of detail. The Alpha is proper direct drive: smoother, faster, way more torque headroom, and you’ll feel stuff the G920 just can’t communicate (weight transfer, traction loss, curbs, micro-corrections).
Like i said i my big guide here on the website though, pedals matter more, have you kept those in mind?
It's a surprisingly noticeable difference. Recline seats feel more like those on a traditional car, bucket seats feel more sporty and "race car" like but usually are slightly less comfortable though less prone to flex.
You’re on a solid upgrade path, and the GT Omega Prime Lite is absolutely strong enough for an R9-level setup. On the seat side, I’ll say this: I really like the Trak Racer Rally seat. It’s comfortable for long sessions, supportive enough for serious driving, and works well for sim racing without feeling overly aggressive. It should be compatible with the Prime Lite using either Trak Racer or GT Omega seat brackets, since these aluminum profile rigs generally share the same mounting standards. Overall, it’s a safe, well-rounded seat choice that won’t hold the rest of your setup back.
Good question. I have not personally owned it, but I have seen it in-person and it looks pretty solid for the money. It'll easily do the job holding up a 32" display without breaking the bank so I would go with it. There is also a 5% off discount code in my "discount codes" tab ;)
Depends a ton on your specific needs. The cheapest options for PlayStation will be Logitech with the G29 or G923, or Thrustmaster with the T150, T128, T248. You can find all of these for $50-100 on the used market.
If you want the most “full-on sim” experience under $60 without iRacing, I’d personally point you straight to Le Mans Ultimate first. It’s one of the few games right now that actually nails that modern endurance vibe, with a super focused package (WEC cars and tracks), great sense of weight through the wheel, and racing that feels intense without needing a massive online ecosystem to be worth it. AMS2 is the safer “best value overall” pick if you want variety, tons of cars/classes, and a great single player experience, but the driving feel can vary a bit depending on the combo. ACC is still a no-brainer if you specifically want GT3 and you’re seeing it cheap, but it’s a narrower lane and can feel a bit same-y if you’re not obsessed with GT racing. Since you already play BeamNG, LMU gives you that proper race weekend structure and serious motorsport atmosphere you’re missing, without the iRacing price tag.
Hi Jann,
Sorry about that. In the past we’ve had some pretty rough experiences shipping to countries outside of North America and Europe, which is why we don’t offer it anymore.

Thanks for understanding,

How do you define mid tier, budget wise? Do you have any specific specs you're looking for?

Thanks for this! I think it's a great idea as well and I'll look into it =)
