Mini Cooper S ’The Italian Job’ - Motion Car Simulator - Simbiotix
Simbiotix Ltd are proud to present this truly world-unique full-car simulator. Themed on the 1969 film ‘The Italian Job’, starring Michael Caine and Noel Coward. An actual Austin Mini car has been fully overhauled and styled to represent the iconic blue Mini Cooper S from the film (registration LGW 809G – incidentally, this is the return flight number the heist team were supposed to catch home after completing the ‘job’).
Converted Austin Mini shell, painted in official Italian Job ‘Island Blue’. Body completely stripped of all ancillary components except for the shell, chassis, original steering mechanism and instrument cluster. Brand new Italian Job themed trim fitted including: re-upholstered seats, carpets, dashboard, complete external chrome trim pack, badges, bonnet straps and Ultralite alloy wheels.
Driver’s seat converted to a full 2 degree of freedom motion system to simulate motion/g-force when experiencing acceleration, braking, road surface and gear changes.
Original accelerator/brake/clutch pedal pads and arms adapted to Simjack/Heusinkveld style pedal armature for simulated resistance and load cell braking.
Original handbrake mechanism electronically sensored to work in-game with realistic feel and reaction.
Custom 4-speed reverse gearshift mechanism, utilising authentic gaitor and gear knob.
Refurbished steering wheel and central emblem, connected to original steering rack and pinion mechanism. When steering in-game, the front wheels move as per the original design. Hall effect sensor unit detects angular movement of wheels and communicates this back to the simulation for ultra-fine fidelity.
Engine/gearbox removed and engine bay re-lined with metal panels to create a ventilated location for the high specification PC and control microprocessors. PC power switch remotely located inside the car for ease of operation.
180 degree, professionally made curved projector screen with aluminium framework to ease transportation. Aluminium frame gantry for mounting of Benq 4K short-throw projector and photographs of ‘Italian Job’ movie stills.
Streamdeck 6-button pad installed for simple, one-touch execution of simulation software to ensure fast access to installed games and functionality. Additional buttons play an assortment of theme music and sound effects from the film. Race around the streets of Italy whilst listening to the ‘Self Preservation Society’ theme tune or take a gentle stroll around the winding roads of the beautiful Italian hilltops whilst listening to Matt Munro’s ‘Days Like These’ (just watch out for those tunnels!).
Dual-fan ‘Windsim’ installed. Two fans installed on the dashboard blow air relative to vehicle speed. So the faster you go, the more air you feel, adding another sense of immersion.
Working instrument cluster. Original gauge/needle mechanisms replaced with servo motors and connected to the simulation via a microprocessor board. Real-time working needle positions move relative to car/engine parameters for speed, water temperature and fuel. The odometer has been set to represent the year the film was made.
Control switch panel. Original panel removed and replaced with a laser-cut panel including 2 working ‘long-lever’ switches (for lights or any other function required) and an engine ignition barrel/key switch for real-time engine starting.
Soundsystem: Full surround sound sound-bar mounted underneath the dashboard for a rich and immersive sound experience. A remote subwoofer is mounted underneath the passenger seat for transmitting deep resonance bass through the floor-pan.
An additional monitor screen is positioned just below the dashboard on the passenger side for assisting with menu selections and general PC operations.
PC Specification: Water-cooled Intel i7 12700 CPU, 32 Gb of RAM, 850w Gold PSU, RTX 3080ti GPU, 1tb NVME storage, Liquid 240 Cooler, Corsair Airflow Case.
