Overview
The T300 RS GT Edition + TH8S Shifter Add-On — PlayStation Racing Wheel and Shifter Bundle puts three Thrustmaster products in one box: the belt-driven T300 RS GT Edition wheel base, the T3PA GT Edition three-pedal set, and the TH8S H-pattern shifter. It suits PS5 players who want to drive Gran Turismo 7 with a clutch and H-shifter.
It also suits PC newcomers who want a clear step up from gear-driven entry wheels without buying each piece separately. It is not for people who already own a direct-drive wheel, or for Xbox players.
According to the listed specs, the base uses a brushless motor (listed at 25W) with dual-belt force feedback (FFB). Rotation is adjustable from 270° to 1080°, so you can use a short lock for formula cars and a wide lock for road and rally cars.
The pedal set has throttle, brake, and clutch with adjustable positions. The TH8S offers 7 forward gears plus reverse in an H-pattern.
The bundle supports PS5, PS4, and PC and is officially licensed for Gran Turismo.
How the Belt-Driven FFB Feels
A belt drive transfers the motor's force to the steering shaft through belts. Compared with gear drives, it avoids most of the notchiness and rattle that gears introduce.
Road texture, curb strikes, and the moment a tire starts to slide come through more smoothly. If you are moving up from a gamepad or a gear-driven wheel, this is the difference you will notice first.
It still falls short of direct drive, where the motor connects straight to the wheel, in peak torque and in how sharply it reacts to small changes. A belt-driven wheel at this price is something you can keep for years if you stay a casual or intermediate racer, and a stepping stone if you plan to go further.
Deciding which describes you before you buy prevents regret later.
Compatibility Guide
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Platforms | PS5 / PS4 / PC (Xbox is not listed) |
| PC connection | USB, with Thrustmaster drivers installed |
| Pedals | Connect to the wheel base |
| TH8S | Connects through the wheel base on consoles |
| Power | The wheel base needs its included AC adapter |
On PS5 or PS4, you connect the wheel base to the console over USB. The pedals and shifter plug into the base, so the console only needs one USB port.
The base cannot run on console USB power alone, though, so check that there is an outlet near your setup. On PC, the bundle works over USB once the drivers are installed, and it is supported in major titles such as Assetto Corsa, iRacing, and Forza Motorsport.
Revisiting the FFB strength and rotation settings in each game makes a big difference to how it feels.
Whether you can use the H-shifter and clutch depends on the game. Gran Turismo 7 supports H-pattern shifting with a clutch.
Some other PS5 racing games may not let you map the shifter or clutch pedal, so check support first if GT7 is not your main game.
The TH8S is sold as an H-pattern shifter. If you want sequential shifting, where you push forward or pull back one gear at a time, use the wheel's paddle shifters or look at a shifter that supports sequential mode.
The product page is the best place to confirm exactly what the TH8S supports.
Desk space is easy to overlook. The wheel base and the shifter each clamp to the desk.
Very thick desktops, or desks with a reinforcing rail under the edge, may not take the clamps. On thin or flexible desks, strong FFB can make the base wobble.
The shifter sits to the right of the wheel, so you also need enough desk width. The pedals sit on the floor and tend to slide forward on hardwood, so brace them against a wall or heavy object, or use a non-slip mat.
The T300 base lets you remove the rim and fit a separately sold add-on rim. Thrustmaster's own GT Wheel and Ferrari 488 GT3 Wheel Add-On are options.
Check each rim's product page to confirm which bases it supports.

On Amazon.co.jp, the bundle was ¥67,953 as of June 26, 2026, and ¥73,248 as of August 26, 2026.
That is a gap of more than ¥5,000 in two months, so the price moves with sales and stock. The prices here are snapshots from those dates.
Check the product page for the current price before buying.
As of June 2026, the Amazon rating was 4.6 out of 5 stars from 8 ratings.
That is a high score but a small sample, so treat it as one data point rather than a verdict.
The box contains the wheel base with its rim, the T3PA GT Edition pedals, the TH8S shifter, a power adapter, and a manual. The bundle has been sold as an official Japanese import since around 2023, with a stated one-year warranty for official Japanese units.
Check the warranty terms on the listing. Its motor output is modest next to higher-end models such as the T-GT II.
Its main strength is getting a brushless belt-driven base, three pedals, and an H-shifter in one box at this price.
Comparison with Alternatives
| Option | Drive type | Key points | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| This bundle | Belt drive | Includes 3 pedals and an H-shifter. Works on PS5 and PC | PS5 players who want manual shifting in GT7 |
| T128 PS + TH8S bundle | Entry-level | Lower-tier bundle with the same TH8S | Trying an H-shifter on a tighter budget |
| Logitech G923 | Gear drive | 3 pedals included, shifter sold separately | Buyers fine with gear drive who want to spend less |
| MOZA R5 bundle | Direct drive | Sharper direct-drive feel, mainly for PC | PC-only racers investing for the long term |
Of these, this bundle is the one that works on both PS5 and PC and includes an H-shifter out of the box. MOZA's direct-drive wheels are a strong choice for PC-focused racers.
Console support varies a lot between products, though, so check it carefully if you play on PlayStation. Compared with the T128 bundle, which uses the same TH8S, the main difference is the wheel base.
If FFB quality matters to you, the T300 is worth the extra cost.
Recommended Users
- PS5 players serious about Gran Turismo 7: This is an officially licensed wheel, and it gives you a clutch and H-shifter for manual driving from day one. You can feel curbs and changes in tire grip. For more immersion, consider adding a seat or cockpit.
- PC newcomers moving up from a gamepad or a gear-driven wheel: You get usable brushless FFB for far less than a direct-drive setup. The TH8S also lets you practice heel-and-toe and clutch control.
- People who play on both PS5 and PC: The bundle works on both with no adapter. The rim can be swapped, so you can move to a GT-style or formula-style rim later.
- Buyers with about ¥60,000–80,000 who want wheel, pedals, and shifter together: There is no need to piece a setup together, and you can race with the full set as soon as it arrives.
It is not for competitive racers chasing tenths of a second or for anyone already on direct drive. Xbox owners should look elsewhere.
Before You Buy
- The brake is not a load cell. The T3PA brake measures how far the pedal travels, not how hard you press it. If you want to refine your braking, a load-cell pedal set is the natural upgrade. If you are considering something like the Raceline Pedals III LC, check its product page to confirm it works with the T300 base.
- There is no Xbox support. The supported platforms are PS5, PS4, and PC.
- Mounting makes or breaks the experience. A desk that won't take the clamps, or one that wobbles, wastes much of the FFB. A wheel stand or cockpit brings out the full effect.
- The TH8S is H-pattern only. Plan to use the paddles for sequential-style shifting.
- Shifter support depends on the game. If GT7 is not your main title, check support first.
- Expect some operating noise. Belt-driven bases can produce audible motor and cooling noise. Along with pedal noise, keep this in mind if you play late at night or live in an apartment.
- Check the price and the seller. The price moved by more than ¥5,000 between the two capture dates. Official Japanese units and parallel imports may be listed side by side, so look for the official import label if the warranty matters to you.

Yes. It is officially licensed for Gran Turismo and supports PS5 and PS4.
GT7 also supports manual shifting with the H-shifter and clutch.
Q. What do I need to use it on PC? A.
Connect it over USB and install Thrustmaster's drivers. The wheel base also needs power from its AC adapter.
Q. How should I set the rotation angle? A.

Some games set the angle automatically for each car.
Q. Can I use sequential shifting?
A. The TH8S is sold as an H-pattern shifter. Use the wheel's paddle shifters for sequential shifts.
Q. Can I upgrade the rim or pedals later? A.
The rim is designed to be swapped, and official add-ons such as the GT Wheel and Ferrari 488 GT3 Wheel Add-On are options. The pedals can also be upgraded, but check compatibility on each product page.
