I'm probably not much help here, but I looked into this a bit for my kid that wanted to play Gran Turismo and Formula1 on the Xbox. He had the Xbox steering wheel and pedals. We got him this sim racing seat:

Its much more now it looks like, but I would assume you could get the same quality for around 250 now. If your going to do this, this is a good intro seat I would think. We are pretty happy with it. The thing is that it didnt accept the mounting for the xbox steering wheel. So I had to get creative with mounting, but it looks like it would mount just about any other common wheel in the market place.
My son has really enjoyed it and is bugging me for a new upgraded wheel now. Its something fun and if you have interest in it now, you probably wouldnt lose too much interest and let it collect dust. The seat takes up a bit of space if that will be an issue.
