Seriously, TM?
No, sorry -- that's not a mod . . . that's a DIY project that involves a complete teardown, a rebuild of the electrical elements, and modification of the hardware itself, all of which ultimately voids your warranty, and potentially renders your T500 pedals unusable for console applications if you have to go with a separate stand-alone USB circuit board to pull it all together electrically.
For that kind of effort, when you take into consideration the limitations imposed by the T500 pedal design, I'd say you would almost be better off trying to do a scratch-built set of pedals based on the CST design. Yes, it is do-able, but as with my load cell mod, there will be compromises required to make the new elements work with the existing hardware at the very least.
Also, that's not a hydraulic brake cylinder -- that's a pneumatic setup with a single pneumatic cylinder, which involves air only and no oil or hydraulic fluid.
actually thats my system that i did,and it is indeed hydraulic using silicone oil and air for compression.
you could just wire the pt direct to the t500 pedal connection board but since the t500 only outputs 3.3v and the pt is designed to work best at 5v(same as the loadcell) then its best to use a leo board for connection,much better resolution.
i made a loadcell version before but at 3.3v the sensitivity wasnt good,same with the pt at 3.3v..5v is much better

Kaz said the problem with GT6 physics is that they're "too real", so using one of those fancy FFB wheels to compensate for a game's inadequacies is unnecessary, unlike Forza and all those wannabe PC simulators. Because GT6 is The Real Driving Simulator, the only controllers necessary for a full simulation experience are a Dual Shock 4 or non-FFB steering wheel.Xbone get the TX PS4 owners get this? But I still have hopes a sucessor the T500 will come soon.
Joke right. Do you have the quote and context :-)Kaz said the problem with GT6 physics is that they're "too real", so using one of those fancy FFB wheels to compensate for a game's inadequacies is unnecessary, unlike Forza and all those wannabe PC simulators.

Even if you're trying to be funny this makes no sense whatsoever considering GT6 is for PS3 and that wheel is for PS4.Kaz said the problem with GT6 physics is that they're "too real", so using one of those fancy FFB wheels to compensate for a game's inadequacies is unnecessary, unlike Forza and all those wannabe PC simulators.

Complete bollocks!Kaz said the problem with GT6 physics is that they're "too real", so using one of those fancy FFB wheels to compensate for a game's inadequacies is unnecessary, unlike Forza and all those wannabe PC simulators.

I discovered that the T500RS does, in fact, have on-the-fly degrees of rotation adjustment! Here is how you do it:
The available options are 270, 540, 900, and 1080 degrees:
So what you do is press the "MODE" button along with either Left or Right on the D-Pad (Left to go to the next step down, and right to go to the next step up, and it does loop [go from 1080 to 270])
Hope this is of use to you guys!
That's me (I adopted the BlazingGlory53 name in 2012 for online use) Thanks for the credit I just got the T500RS on Wednesday. It was actually in the user manual.Check this out:

One thing worth noting is that you'll need to adjust the DoR every time you get in the car on PC simulators (I don't have a PS3 anymore to test)
...Wonder if they finally got rid of the infamous Version "V5"...
That was a warranty replacement, though. Have you seen the box of a new wheel?I recived a brand new Wheel base on warrenty some months ago, there are no more "Version" numbers on the sticker
I think internal changes will mean Brushless motors(with new DC/DC converter). Xbox one wheel has them and I think it is likely they hare unifying top class wheel internals for cheaper production costs. This would of course mean that changes are not minorThere was an Italian on one of the other racing sites who went to a video game event and talked to TM employees where they had the TX setup for Forza. Everything he said he was told about the TX came to be true. Apparently the employees also told him the rebranded T500RS will have "minor" internal changes. That could mean anything, of course.

I can confirm no changes for this wheel...it's only rebranded with firmware update...
Not sure if this is the reason why, but I went to the store today to buy my first sim wheel. I was planning on spending 250 for a G27, and when I got there I saw tons of t500rs. All for 149.99. I immediately bought 2 and left. It's the white box and says gt5, unlike the pic posted a few pages back.
Is something wrong with this thing?
What? are you serious? Are you absolutely certain you bought a T500RS? If so, you might have just gotten the deal of the century... twice!
