DIY Thrustmaster T3PA Realistic Brake Mod
Вставка

- This is the solution I came up with to achieve a realistic brake mod for my Thrustmaster T3PA Pedal Set.
I have modified the Conical Brake Mod that is included with the pedals from Thrustmaster. Adding a compression spring which gives a realistic feel of pressure resistance of a real Rally/Race Car.
The mod is simple and cheap to do. Leave a comment to let me know what you thought of this mod!
I just came across this video, done the exact same mod today and wow it’s helped me out a lot. Nice one you wee legend
Guys who wants to see a video on my new T3PA Brake Mod using a real brake cylinder and brake fluid??
ME HOLY SHIT\
ME TOO
I just wanted to say thanks for the spring mod vid, that is working out sweet. I'm going to leave a comment for a spring I used for anybody else that might be having trouble finding a spring to do the spring mod you did. Hell yea! I would love to see what your new brake cylinder mod looks like.
I want to see it but where did you get this spring from?
Tried your idea on my t3pa using the brake spring from the original TX 458 pedals that came with the TX wheel- instantly cut almost 2 seconds on my previous record in F1 2019 in Australia and shaved nearly 6 seconds in DIRT Rally 2.0 Paskuri Finland. 👍🏻
Daniel Löfgren awesome!!
Jon Armstrong Rallying - the thing is that without the ”spring mod thing” applying the initial brake pressure in a straight line break zone was like 95 % dead on every corner. The real change for me was when trailbraking at least in a hi DF car like say F1. You apply the right amount of pressure initially but as the speed decrease and you loose DF you want to gradually ease of the brakes to avoid lock up. This mod really helps you to feel it instead of guessing. In a game like DIRT Rally 2.0 this mod for me made it a lot easier to feather left foot braking as a a way to shift the weight of the car and by that balance the car to response correctly whith my steering input. Sorry for my poor english and a somewhat odd description above- but again thanks! this made a hell of a difference👍🏻🏎
Just got a TMX pro wheel, that comes with these pedals as my old G27 finally gave up. Don't have the biggest budget to sim race with. Found an old spring I have from when I modded my old pedals. Was just thinking about doing the same thing as in this video. Fitting the spring over the head and then resting it against the pedal.
Thank you for this idea. I don't really like the conical brake mod too. I'll buy the springs for try it.
This looks like what I have been looking for. Where did you get the spring?
Was thinking about making this, so this helps me a bit.
Tested and it's not that good; works for awhile cuz without a damper in it, the spring loosen the stiffness very quickly, of course, use depending.
Whats the Diameter and length size of the compression spring needed please?
Could you please share the wire size of your spring? I found 2.5mm-wire-size spring too stiff and 1mm too soft.
Thanks in advance.
Very clever!
Koz4Christ HEY KOZ!! omg cool to see ya
BRILLIANT IDEA. WHERE DID YOU GET THE SPRING FROM ?
Paul trotter I recommend buying an assortment of small compression springs off eBay and choose one from the pack. You can also cut it to size with an angle grinder.
thanks :)
here is a link for the one I used on Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005KU9BJ6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Hey, you have the playseat sensation pro? How do you like it? And where did you get the keyboard holder? Thank you :)
I have conical mod, how do adjust the brake pressure with TM control panel or within game? When I now press brake it only shows like 20% brake pressure?
Hi, just wanted you know what wheel you use now, and how it compares to your old logitec. Cheers!
Are there any alternatives? Cause the spring is out of stock now and doesn't not ship internationally as well
Where did you buy the spring?
this is a link for a great spring I found on Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005KU9BJ6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Hi. After the rubber cone installation I have 1/4 of the breake force on ps4+ac or gt
When is the exact moment to push break for a good auto calibration? thnx!
Could you give dimension of all parts which you used?
İs it just me t3pa gas pedal is too light
I find all of the pedals too light. I've had to start re-enabling assists in games because I don't have any accuracy. I'm in the process of designing shock absorbers with changeable springs, and a rack to mount them behind the pedals.
These are the first pedals I've had, and I have to say I'm disappointed with them.
Also, great video. I considered doing something similar using a spring but I was concerned about damaging the back of the pedals and also felt it wouldn't take much punishment before it broke in some way.
Jimmy broadbent used to have a stress ball in his.
Where can i find this spring please ? Thank you !
Nicolas Joly I bought an assortment of small compression springs off eBay and cut it to size with an angle grinder
Thank you !
this spring what size？？？
Can hardly understand you..I’m trying hard also...
Literally turned the volume to max and still barely could understand. No hate, just feedback..✌🏼

Uuuhhhmmmm
Hydraulics is better in anyway. Rubber/spring mods are odd. Not the right sort of things for brakes.
