I designed some open source Logitech shifter/pedal adapters
I'm using an Arduino Micro myself to control my G25 shifter and pedals, a DIY loadcell handbrake and DIY button box. My code is originally based on the one amstudio shared for their 32 function button box, as that was initially its only task. I then built my handbrake and added some code to handle the HX711 loadcell amplifier.

Button Box Wiring Help?
I've not used a port expander personally but they seem pretty simple wiring wise, so they should be fine. You don't have to go through SimHub with a button box, the classic AMStudio sketch https://github.com/AM-STUDIO/32-FUNCTION-BUTTON-BOX works fine too (on a leonardo or pro micro).

About arduino
You can find examples all over the Internet. AM-Studio for example: https://github.com/AM-STUDIO/32-FUNCTION-BUTTON-BOX If you want to build your own Design you will need to learn a bit about electronics and arduino programming.

Calibrating an axis with a center position.
I'm using an Arduino Leonardo with a heavily modified version of this sketch. I guess I could switch over to MMJoy, but it seems like there's a lot going on there. It seems to replace the bootloader for some reason? I'll keep it in mind, but honestly it seems more confusing than just writing my own calibration routines, haha.

Problem with the G27 shifter.
While the plug fits, the pinout is different between G27 and G25 - if you're into electronics, check out https://github.com/chrisjansson/Shifter for details.

I designed some open source Logitech shifter/pedal adapters
The G27 shifter uses shift registers to send the button presses to the wheelbase, so they only use three additional pins. You can check out the library by RamjetX for an example how to handle those. He has also linked a very old thread with the G25 shifter pinout, but be aware that pin 1 and pin 7 are swapped for the G27 shifter compared to the G25, see the GitHub by chrisjansson.

G25 shifter G27 wheel compatibility?
They are not compatible out of the box, because the pin out was changed between G25 and G27. According to this Github pin 1 and pin 7 were swapped so it should be sufficient to swap them back.
