Since my computer is used for many other things, I need to build something that could be moved around (hence the wheels).  There were also limitation to hight so that I could slide it close enough to the desk.

The seat is out of a Honda Prelude Si.  The shifter is home built.  See this link for more info.  The steering wheel and pedals are and old Wingman Formula Force.  The clutch pedal is one pedal from the first wheel and pedal design that Thrustamter sold.  The clutch and shifter are wired to appear like a CH Virtual Pilot Pro.  Not seen in the picutre is a TrackIR  unit.

I pull the monitor and speakers forward so they are where the keyboard appears in the picture.  That along with the TrackIR adds even more to the imersion factor.

The poistioning of the pedals is wrong.  They need to sit lower, but becuase they are wider than the frame, the can't be lowered.  I am working on building some pedals and those will sit in the correct spot.
