THRUSTMASTER TH8A Shifter (compatible w/ PS5, PS5 Pro, PS4, XBOX Series X/S, One, PC)

just what i asked for love it!

nice shifter, durable, worth buying

This is the best shifter ive ever used in my life!!! It feels amazing when im drifting or shifting quickly in races. I would recommend this to anyone who does simracing worth the price.

I use this product for racing simulator games and Truck simulators, both uses i love the feel of it. The feeling of shifting feels good, it does lack some vibration, but its made up with being able to shift it hard. Its knob being just being easy to remove makes it a delight and the options to make it a handbrake or sequential shifter justify its price

I waited forever before deciding myself to by this Thrustmaster TH8A Add-On gearbox shifter for PC. The main reason was that the price has been variating quite a lot with a minimum observed around $150. The second reason was that I was enjoying the pads shifters on my wheel and I was satisfied with it.Eventually, after getting the Sparco Handbrake, getting the manual shifter became logical too... Both are attaching to the Thrustmaster clamp which I also bought. I had to pay more than the base price but I am glad that I did because now the item is only available by other sellers and for a ridiculous price (over $200)So now I have the Thrustmaster TS-PC racer with the Ferrari GTE-F458 wheel as an add-On, the TH8A gearbox shifter, the Sparco Handbrake and the T3PA Pro pedals.I understand that it is medium range in term of quality (when compared to direct drive wheels and load cells pedals) but it makes for a wonderful immersion.As for the Thrustmaster TH8A Shifter, I find it, like all other Thrustmaster equipment, expensive but also of a great manufacture quality. Experience wise, it works as well as an H shifter or sequential. The swap from one to the other requires a screwdriver and a little bit of work but I do not expect anyone to change frequently.It is actually more than an H shifter since it has actually 8 slots (7 gears + reverse).It is very sturdy and provides a good feel as for the spring and handling.In conclusion:Yes, I greatly recommend it for a better rallye experience like Dirt Rallye 2 and all the games for which a manual gearbox would be preferable.It is easy to configure, compatible with all other Thrustmaster equipment but even more.5 stars.

I currently own a Logitech G27 shifter and by far the build quality of the Thrustmaster TH8A is miles high compared to the Logitech. Having the ability to switch to sequential shifting is a huge plus. The shifting gates give solid feedback when you shift giving a solid mechanical thunk when the gear is selected. That is something that the Logitech lacked. I did like the additional buttons and hat switch on the G27 but is not a deal breaker considering the quality difference and feel. The only downside, if you can call it that, is this price which is higher than the competition. However, after seeing them next to one another and actually using both I'm more than happy to spend a few extra dollars for a shifter that should last a very long time and give me flexibility to shift using an H pattern or sequential. The second complaint I have is that Amazon decided to ship this item by slapping a shipping label directly on the box, the retail packaging box, and stick it on my doorstep. Anyone can see what it is as they walk past my door and it is a big siren that wails "Steal me!" I can understand they want to lower the amount of materials used to ship an item but that is just asking for package theft to go through the roof which will only cost them more in replacements that just using a box in the first place. I understand that a package thief will steal no matter what but openly advertising what something is might just make someone tip over the edge knowing what it is rather than what it might be. Please Amazon use common sense on this new money savings tactic. Maybe use correctly sized boxes and less packing material and leave the security in place of discretely hiding the product from open eyes.

This shifter has a nice hefty feel to it and looks fantastic. I bought it after I was dissatisfied with the very lightweight Logitech shifter that came bundled with the G27. However the G27 lightweight shifter had a much better mount. The mount for this shifter is a clamp that is prone to allowing the shifter to rotate around. I had to fabricate and anti-rotation mount to make it work with my chair. Now that I have drilled lots of holes and made the mount, the shifter is a joy. I would give it 5 stars if the mount wasn't so terrible.

Good quality, good gates, satisfied with it . Simple as that. Just buy it ..
