The Complete Ferrari GT3 Sim Racing Pack
The Thrustmaster T818 Ferrari 488 GT3 Simulator (part number 2960981, EAN 3362932917199) is a complete, officially-licensed sim racing pack combining three components: the T818 Direct Drive servo base, the Ferrari 488 GT3 Wheel Add-On, and the Raceline Pedals LTE pedal set. The result of more than 25 years of collaboration between Thrustmaster and Ferrari, this pack delivers the pinnacle of PC sim racing immersion — with 10 N·m of unfiltered Direct Drive torque, a life-size Ferrari 488 GT3 replica wheel rim with carbon faceplate and Mag-Shift paddles, and a modular metal pedal set upgradable to a Load Cell brake. Compatible with PC (Windows 10/11) only. Available now at singular.com.cy.
⚠ Platform Note — PC Only (Windows 10/11) — No Console Support
The T818 Ferrari 488 GT3 Simulator is compatible exclusively with PC (Windows 10/11). It does not support PS5, PS4, Xbox or any other platform. A Quick Release Adapter is included in the box for backward compatibility with other Thrustmaster wheel rims (older QR standard), and a Desk Mounting Kit is included for tabletop use (15–41 mm thickness).
Key Features
T818 Direct Drive Base — 10 N·m Unfiltered
The T818 delivers 10 N·m of constant Direct Drive torque — no belt, no gear, no filter between the motor and the wheel. This reliability-enhanced version features a reinforced connector and an optimized motor assembly. Fully configurable via the free My Thrustmaster Panel software: 10 Force Feedback settings, effects, LED behavior, and profile saving on PC.
Official Ferrari 488 GT3 Wheel Rim — 31 cm Carbon
A life-size replica of the Ferrari 488 GT3 race car steering wheel, featuring a weight-optimized carbon central faceplate and a 12.2-inch (31 cm) diameter. Controls include 11 buttons, a D-pad, 4 encoders and 4 LEDs for total in-race management. Mag-Shift paddle shifters guarantee clean, precise gear shifting.
Raceline Pedals LTE — Modular Hall Effect Metal Pedals
The 2-pedal Raceline Pedals LTE uses Hall Effect (H.E.A.R.T.) sensors for reliable, durable precision. The sturdy metal structure allows adjustment of pedal pressure (3 notches + springs), position and height. The set is upgradable via Raceline LC Upgrade, which adds a Load Cell brake pedal to convert to a full 3-pedal configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the T818 Ferrari 488 GT3 Simulator compatible with PS5, PS4 or Xbox?
No — the T818 Ferrari 488 GT3 Simulator is compatible exclusively with PC (Windows 10/11). It does not support PlayStation, Xbox or any other gaming console. If you need a wheel system for PS5/PS4, consider the Thrustmaster T598 Direct Drive base, which is compatible with PlayStation and PC.
Can I upgrade the pedal set to add a clutch pedal?
Yes — the included Raceline Pedals LTE is upgradable via the separately sold Raceline LC Upgrade. This upgrade adds a Load Cell brake pedal and converts the set to a 3-pedal configuration (accelerator, brake, clutch). The Load Cell sensor provides pressure-based braking for more precise, realistic brake modulation.
Can I use the included Ferrari 488 GT3 Wheel Add-On with my existing T300 or T598 base?
The Ferrari 488 GT3 Wheel Add-On uses the standard Thrustmaster Quick Release system and is compatible with the T818 (included in this pack) and T598 bases, as well as older bases like the T300 via the included Quick Release Adapter. However, the adapter is specifically designed for backward compatibility — check Thrustmaster's support site to confirm compatibility with your specific base model.
Expert Insight
T818 Ferrari 488 GT3 Simulator vs T818 Black Edition — Which Pack Is Right for You?
Both packs use the same T818 Direct Drive base delivering 10 N·m of unfiltered torque, so the choice comes down to the included wheel rim and pedals. The Ferrari 488 GT3 Simulator includes the GT3 replica wheel (31 cm carbon, Mag-Shift paddles, 11 buttons) and the modular Raceline Pedals LTE — a 2-pedal metal set upgradable to Load Cell. The T818 Black Edition typically includes the Sparco R383 Mod round GT wheel and the T-LCM 3-pedal set with a Load Cell brake already included. Choose the Ferrari GT3 pack if you want the Ferrari license, the specific GT3 wheel design, and plan to add a Load Cell later via the Raceline LC Upgrade. Choose the Black Edition if you prefer to start with a 3-pedal Load Cell setup from day one and prefer a round Sparco-licensed GT wheel. If you already own pedals, purchasing the T818 base separately and adding only the Ferrari 488 GT3 Wheel Add-On may be more economical than this complete pack.
Buyer's Guide
Buy it if
- You are a PC sim racer wanting a complete, ready-to-run Ferrari-licensed Direct Drive setup
- You race GT3 or endurance titles (Assetto Corsa, iRacing, Le Mans Ultimate) and want an authentic GT3 cockpit feel
- You plan to upgrade to a Load Cell brake later via the Raceline LC Upgrade add-on
Skip it if
- You are a console gamer (PS5/PS4/Xbox) — this pack is PC-only with no console support
- You already own a good pedal set and do not need the Raceline Pedals LTE included in the bundle
- You prefer a 3-pedal Load Cell setup from day one — the Raceline Pedals LTE is 2-pedal
Also consider
- Thrustmaster T818 Black Edition — same base, Sparco R383 wheel, T-LCM 3-pedal Load Cell set included
- Thrustmaster Raceline LC Upgrade — to upgrade the included Raceline Pedals LTE to a 3-pedal Load Cell configuration
- Thrustmaster T598 — if you need a Direct Drive base with PS5/PlayStation and PC compatibility instead
