Huh. I'm guessing GT Omega may have changed their design. I'm sat in one purchased only a week ago, and that is not the hole pattern I'm looking at (I've corrected for yours being other way up from what I'm looking at). Currently getting very cheesed off at fitting pedals, and am now also worried that the wheel will be trouble too! 🤦

I’m literally typing my card in to order the titan for my DD GT pro, same pattern as the CSL DD with CSL pedals. Are you unable to mount the wheel base without drilling and the pedals don’t fit either?

@@ljcsponger87 First off, I should preface this by saying that this is my first ever rig, and my first wheel/pedals since the original PlayStation. So I may well be setting it up wrong, which is why I'm watching these videos again. That being said, the pedals are currently bugging me. The front two screws go in fine, but the pedal frame is so long that it extends past the end of the Titan base, and the holes don't quite line up enough to get the last two bolts in. Again, this may well be a me problem rather than a hardware problem. But so far I'm not seeing how. Haven't tried to attach the wheel yet, but might give it a dry fit in a second so can give you an answer. I have several holes more than Karl's shows though, so it may well be fine.

I had same problem. Remedied it by filing the two holes downward, so that the bolts can move a few mm in that direction. Drilling two holes below didn't work as it moved them TOO low. Bit of a faff tbh. No way to mount the accelerator in the furthest right position as I would really like, but it's still fine, if not ideal.

GT Omega stuff wasn't pre drilled for the old CSL Elites? As far as I know you can put the t-nuts in a compatible position (same with the CSW) at least Fanatec says that in their compatibility video.

I mean to use the 1 center at the top of the plate, and two on the bottom (next to where you drilled). As far as I can see online (I never owned a CSL Elite) it would've matched, but probably I'm mistaken. Or maybe it wouldn't be that stable?
