    I am using the driving simulator CarSim on a Windows PC which outputs stuff like engine RPM, speed, yaw rates, forces, etc.
    I would like to integrate this with a motion chair that will help me feel these forces while I drive.
    I am willing to buy a motion chair but I want to keep using CarSim.

    Any suggestions on what chairs/interfacing software I should be looking at?

    Thanks in advance.
