Fanatec CSR Cables

Jordan Richardson · Jul 31, 2018

Hi all,

Just returned from Australia and went to set my wheel up to play some F1 to find that i am missing some essential cables. I am looking the cable that allows the Logitech G27 pedals to be used with the Fanatec CSR wheel and i am also looking for the cable that goes from the CSR wheel to the PS4. I found the pedal cable in a shop based in Canada but they don't ship to the UK.

I have searched Ebay and the internet and i have had 0 luck in finding these cables, does anybody know where i can get them?

The cable for connecting the G27 Pedals via a separate USB is provided by Leo Bodnar.

I think this is one of those you are looking for.

The CSR is not PS4 compatible. There are two options that I know of, you can get the DriveHub: https://collectiveminds.ca/shop/allconsoles/drivehub/
I am using the DriveHub with my CSR wheel and it works great. It also has an accessory port that you can plug another peripheral in. You can plug the G27 pedal into the drivedrive hub with the USB cable linked above. I have a TH8RS shifter attached and it works great.

The other option is a GIMX adaptor which sounds more complicated and you need to use a computer (although I've heard that a Raspberry Pi works) You can buy an adaptor for around 30 euro or make one yourself https://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
I've ordered the items that I need to try to build one myself. GIMX appears to give you more freedom with the type of controllers you can use (e.g. direct drive wheels, button boxes, shifters).

It does work with the Ps4, I've used it with F1 2015 and PCars....however it's possible that games that have come out since then have stopped supporting it as I haven't used it for over 2 years!

The Drive Hub thing you have listed does look interesting though and Ill definitely look into it.

I'm most verging on selling my g27 and the fanatec wheel and just just buying a G29, but it's a kick in the balls having a better wheel but no cable haha
