    Thanks for this. I only play F1 so I put the brake spring on the throttle, it feels amazing now.

    Thanks for the video, I wanted a look into the unit before I broke mine open, exactly what I was looking for. You should definitely invest in a quality drill with a good clutch though.

    I did this and my brake pedal won't go past 30% now. Electronics are touchy and something got screwed up while it was apart. Be prepared to take that risk I guess

    • @TheEddysGarage

      That’s odd. Is something keeping the pedal from moving all the way? Is a wire jammed?

    Just go to a spring manufacturer, get proper compression springs with the reistence that you require . For pennies

    You could have mentioned that the calibration of the pedal will also get all fucked after doing this and that there is no way to re-calibrate them. I have to switch back now...

      I have had no problem and didn't have to recalibrate anything. I just swapped the springs and went back to gaming.

      Well of course the calibration is going to be a bit off. You've just changed the resistance under each pedal.

  • @JL-cn1qi

    Pretty sure that was all for nothing. And people are breaking their pedals over this.
    The pedals are designed to also be used inverted. Hang down from a rig. That means your clutch becomes your gas and visa versa. So the springs are the same.
    If you ever see a T300 and that little red light on it is shining green instead. That means the wheel is in inverted mode. Gas becomes clutch, clutch becomes gas. So pretty sure the springs are the exact same. Only differance can be is that you wore out the gas spring more then the clutch.
