The pedals are made from 5 mm thick steel.
The pedals plate and pedals faces are made from aluminum.
Brake pedal can be adjusted from 30 to 140kg of pressure.
Throttle pedal can be adjusted from 5 to 20kg of pressure.
The pedals cost me 50 Euro.

Awesome stuff man, wish i'd thought of it.

Have you used any other pedal sets before? How does it compare?

Looks like a massive improvement over the stock DFGT pedals
 
@Dready1984
The hardness of shock absorber for the brake is 750LBS.

If you find softer shock absorber you can use it also for the throttle pedal.

No,only DGFT pedals.

Yes,the difference is huge.
But it's not easy to build them.

Hello Rolando here are the pictures

Here the bolt is cut and the plastic part is screwed to it.
You can leave original screw in the plastic part for more strength,just shorten it.

There is cut grooves in the wood which hold potentiometer front side to not rotate.

I would really like to see your pedals when you finished.
Good luck!

Awesome DIY job man. I would fear 140kg being a little Overkill But thats all personal opinion in the end i guess.

Look forward to the next mod.

Thank you very much!
My current setup for the brake pedal is about 70 kg pressure.

Awesome, Not get working on a Clutch. 👍

The clutch wouldn't work with a dfgt anyways, that would require a whole new wheel system. What you spend on modding it, you Amy as well buy a g27, or a thrustmaster.
 
Stellar workmanship @super_gt! Thats a fantastic idea to use the existing pots and add your own pedals with resistance. I wish I A) thought of it and B) could put it together :lol: 👍

Ah, T150 Potentiometer look same on G27! :/

Your custom pedals look cool Than original! :D

What you think, can i make my T150 or T300 pedals into to g27 pedals custom? (I have G27 pedals but broken potentiometers.
 
This is impressive! I love when people take a DIY approach.

This is a lot better than the bungee cords I have wrapped around both my DFGT pedals! :lol:

Looks (and probably feels) great.

I was thinking about this as I mountain bike, how about using the entire shock, with the cartridge? Compression and rebound would be adjustable, fast compression, slower rebound for the brake would perhaps add realism?

This is a very good idea, you'll just have to experiment to see which setting gives the most realistic feel.👍
