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.

The sturdy design feels robust, and the shifter's smooth action greatly improves my racing games. It easily integrates with my setup, making it a must-have for any serious gamer.

This a great low/mid priced shifter. It feels good going through the gears. Good build quality, easy set up. I would recommend this shifter to friends.

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 have this shifter mounted to my Next Level Racing Wheel Stand 2.0 after upgrading from the Logitech Shifter. While it was easier to miss gears on the Logitech, the TH8A from Thustmaster doesn't feel as realistic. I liked that the Logitech had the press down and shift for Reverse feature. The Thrustmaster TH8A has 7 positions and a reverse. I do like that the gear shifter knob is interchangeable with actual shifter knobs from cars. The gears are fairly accurate and rarely miss. The sequential shifter mod seems like an odd thing to offer with shifter with a cheap plastic plate that replaces the cover after some adjusting; I feel like this could have been implemented better. The main reasons I upgraded to this shifter from the Logitech one is that the Logitech needed an adapter to work on its own; where as the Thrustmaster comes with a cable adapter for USB. The construction is very solid and like I mentioned, it's actually hard to miss gears. If realism is what you're looking for, I don't get a realistic vibe from using this shifter. Also, I haven't found a use for the 7th gear yet in iRacing. Overall, it's a well contructed H-Pattern shifter; I wouldn't recommend it for the Sequential Shifter plate that it comes with. It mounted well to my wheel stand and seems very durable.

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.

Recentemente ho acquistato il Thrustmaster TH8 come aggiunta al mio set di simulazione di guida e devo dire che sono molto soddisfatto delle sue prestazioni. Questa leva del cambio ha superato le mie aspettative in termini di qualità e funzionalità. La costruzione solida e resistente del TH8 è evidente fin dal primo tocco. I materiali utilizzati sono di alta qualità, conferendo al cambio un'impugnatura robusta e una sensazione di affidabilità. L'installazione è stata semplice e veloce, e la compatibilità con una vasta gamma di simulatori di guida è un grande vantaggio. La vera caratteristica di questo prodotto è la precisione e la fluidità del cambio. I cambi di marcia sono estremamente precisi, offrendo un'esperienza di guida realistica e coinvolgente. La possibilità di personalizzare la resistenza della leva in base alle preferenze personali è un tocco fantastico che permette di adattare l'esperienza di guida alle proprie esigenze. Inoltre, il TH8 è compatibile con diverse piattaforme, il che lo rende un investimento versatile per chiunque utilizzi simulatori di guida su diverse piattaforme. La durata della batteria è notevole, e ho apprezzato la flessibilità di poter utilizzare la leva sia in modalità sequenziale che ad H. In sintesi, il Thrustmaster TH8 è un accessorio eccezionale per gli appassionati di simulazione di guida che cercano un cambio di marcia di alta qualità. La sua costruzione robusta, la precisione nei cambi e la versatilità lo rendono un must-have per chiunque cerchi un'esperienza di guida ancora più realistica. Consiglio vivamente il Thrustmaster TH8 a tutti gli amanti dei simulatori di guida!

Click to play video I really like this shifter it's very good quality and feels very nice to use the gears have a nice clunk when going into gear you also have the option to change the stiffness going into gears but for me I find max stiffness is not stiff enough however I honestly think it's fine at max stiffness I have no problems with it it still has a nice clunk to it but would be nice if it had a bit more resistance it's also nice to have to option to switch to sequential mode for games like dirt rally it works alot better than paddle shift and adds to the emersion it comes with all the tools you need including spare screws and a Alan key it even comes with a very strong table clamp which clamps very well but in my case I decided to hard mount it to my frame with bolts as I have the option overall I'm very happy with this shifter and it's been slot of fun to use I'd 100% recommend this shifter

Shifter wykonany z wysokiej jakości materiałów, z możliwością zmiany trybu na sekwencyjny i przykręcenia do blatu lub stojaka na kierownicę. U mnie pracuje zamontowany do stojaka Next Level Racing NLR-S023. Przymierzałem się pierwotnie do zakupu TH8S, ale finalnie zdecydowałem się na TH8A ze względu na wykonanie wnętrza. Konstrukcja TH8A wydaje się być zdecydowanie trwalsza i powinna działać bez zarzutu dłużej niż tańsza wersja. Nawiasem mówiąc, nie spodziewałem się, że dokupienie drążka będzie takim gamechangerem. Wydawało mi się, że drążek to zbędny bajer, ale gra mi się zdecydowanie przyjemniej z nim niż bez niego, nawet jeśli ścigam się stosunkowo wolnymi samochodami, to odczucia z jazdy są przyjemniejsze.
