Thanks for the video! I tried it and it is great! I was struggling with trail braking in iRacing and now it's way more usable. I am at 80% force right now.

Thanks for this! Saw so many people trying to resell these for 10x the price before watching this video. Should get mine in a week or two

Thank you so much for this. Works like a charm.

This is great advice. I now use one Yellow and one blue spring on my CSL Elite pedals and its a massive improvement over both the standard elastomers and the 3DRAP elastomers. Thanks

Ordered blue and yellow springs in the beginning of February, got them today, looking forward to try it out

Thanks for the vid man. Im going to try it out and give it a try. I was going to replace the CSL pedals actually but this might improve the pedals!

Just put the blue spring on mine and it feels a lot better now

Thanks - very helpful

Cheers for this mate! Have been experimenting with elastomers and doing some research, and after extended use, the rebound of the rubber seems to fade in correlation with the stress strain characteristics of the rubber... After a certain point, it becomes extremely difficult to hold consistent brake pressure, and the load cell fades away... the spring upgrade allows for the effect to not be as prominent, however, it trades exponential brake pressure for linearity... As I still like a stiff brake pedal, have ordered a blue, red and green (next stiffness) spring from the website, will update on this phenomenon when I receive the springs later this month!

just got the springs... Brake fade is removed, have miles more confidence under brakes. Am able to be more precise and run my brake bias further back without the rear coming around. Am running the blue spring and red spring in combination, gives a very similar feel to the elastomers that come stock... If you are experiencing brake fade as a result of worn elastomers, this upgrade will fix that issue.

Thanks for the video, I was surprised how stiff the stock LC pedal is and don't want to spend 35€ for the 3drap mod for a used entry pedal set. I've bought both springs and still waiting for the order to arrive. Edit: I've gotten my springs now and the blue one feels perfect, I like a stiff pedal but the stock one didn't give any feedback and felt like a wall, much better with the spring!

GOOD MAN

Happy new year and thanks for the video! Then overall... spring or 3Drap elastomers in your opinion? :) just saw your couple of videos on it and I’m doubtful on what way to go

I just bought the blue one (because it was available from amazon so I wouldn't have to wait a month) and my first impressions is that it does not change a lot, but it's enough to be noticeable. Note that my pedals and my seat are not rock solid planted to the ground and I am also not the strongest of dudes. Overall for just 8 bucks it's an improvement.

Have you tried using the 3drap elastomer and a spring? I'm currently using a 3drap linear elastomer and a yellow spring,.. But after watching your video i think im going to switch to a blue spring because yellow is a bit light.

Which one has more travel between 3drap hybrid and aliexpress blue?

Hey are there any springs available anywhere that would replace just one elastomer, much like on the elite v2 pedals. ?

Does this work with the csl 2 pedal set without loadcells? Nice vid

with 1 spring it is still travelling too narrow, instead of 1 spring did you try 2 blue springs? I am thinking to buy 1 more if it is more effective

I have the GT Lite Rig by next level and I’m pushing myself away and I’m weigh about 100kg and can barely move the pedal. I ordered yellow and blue and am considering using multiple blues. Have you tried using multiple springs?

I am using 2 of the yellow springs, no elastomers, with brake set to 15%... but my pedals are attached by velcro to the floor, so this is the most force my setup can handle. feels OK though 😌👌

3DRAP is ridiculously expensive for a plastic rubber but this is cheap and worth to give a try but In the link that you gave there is no 20 x 10 x 25 mm Blue color, I am not sure if it is sold out. Is it have to be exactly that size and is it really the color that gave stiffness?

I would be happy if I could get even close to the travel you get from the stock pedal. I have to push super hard to get anywhere close to that. *I mean push super hard as in both hands pulling the wheel, heavy duty RCP pro cockpit creaking from the strain hard.

I went with the yellow spring for my setup, my pedals are on carpet you have to lower the brake force on the Fanatec software to your liking that won't push your chair backwards if you are using an office chair.

I upgraded to a spring because the elastomers felt super stiff but while I was putting it back on the pedal 2 plastic stoppers flew off

I did a blue spring on my brake set up on a sturdy Next Level Racing GT rig and it's... Better. Does it feel like a hydraulic brake more? No. Does it feel like my Elise's brakes? Ehhh... Not really. Does it give more travel so it's more like a "street car" brake? Yes, which makes it worth it over keeping the stock setup which is like a rock. I didn't notice a difference in lap times so far, but the feeling is so much better.

I´ve bought 4 springs, yellow, blue, green and red, but it doesn´t makes any sense to me. It doesn´t feel realistic anymore. So I drive without any springs in stock state it´s mucht better for me

I replaced the middle elsatomor on my CSL elite load cell pedal with an aluminium tube because the elsatomors lost there rigidity over time. I like the pedal to be stiff with little movement. Your body can replicate pressure applied very easily in repetition but can not replicate travel anywhere near as easily. At the end the of the day the load cell only records pressure applied regardless of how far the pedal has travelled.

Is losing rigidity a common thing for elastomers? It is a bit worrying that after buying pedals, I would have to shell out more money for replacement elastomers. Also, this sounds like Fanatec accounted for this and made those pedals too stiff out of the box, so it would ease in over time...

@@Rosaslav There is a breaking in period, and they settle.

I'm even using a spring-mod for my HE Ultimates and the last elastomer is just inside the spring as a spacer. But getting some unlinear resistance around the 80% mark is IMO rather desirable if it's not ACC, since tyres tend to start locking if going over, so 80% should be your 100% in most cases. In ACC there is an option in the brake-settings to add an upper dead-zone and get basically the same result.

Given that those springs are much cheaper than 3drap mod, it seems like a no brainer, assuming CSL pedals are a budget buy, so you want to keep the price low. Only thing I am worried about is longevity of those springs as spring tend to get "tired" over time.

Did you try these springs with 3drap elestomers? I have 3drap hybrid ones but i wanna try it with blue spring + 3drap linear elestomer. Whats ur opinion on that?

Elastomers provide a better sensation of progressive resistance. So the hybrid setup I find better than two metal springs. But comes it down to what works for each person, some people might prefer just running springs. So my review does have bias because of my preference.

It shouldn't make a difference, as the spring tension is softer than the elastomers, the spring is always going to compress first in the stack.
