I saw the pic and read the first post, skipped the other 12 pages. James, you are the fucking man. I've always wanted to build a setup with a chair, wheel & pedals, and a sick TV. I must now add a dash.
I don't think there will be much extra wear on the logitech wheel motors - they are made to fight the leverage a human exerts on the wheel so I'm sure they can withstand a few ounces of inertia.
And the horn, ebrake etc, are ran through a series of relays (to turn on lights and such) and also interfaced with a I-PAC VE http://www.ultimarc.com/ipacve.html

Looks like James is getting a little bit of attention from the gaming community. There was a link on Kotaku (kotaku.com) to a site that did a small article on the simulator.
The cockpit of many modern cars may make the driver feel like they're in a video game, what with drive-by-wire steering, floppy-paddle gearboxes, and an array of electronic nannies. But what about a video game that makes you feel like you're in a real car? Thats what one Bimmerphile over at r3vlimited was apparently…
My favorite comment ""Admirable ingenuity but I'd be more impressed if he bought an actual E30 BMW and learned how do drive for real. "
Better get on that James!! Wouldn't want to upset your fanbase!

Shit, James, you are a fucking HERO to a bunch of video game weenies!
