Race Sim Engineering CSL Pedals Upgrade Kit V2 [REVIEW] My Fanatec pedals now feel more premium!

[@andymaxwell23]

Awesome, thanks. I've just bought their CSL LC brake spring thanks to hearing about them via this video.

[@dylanmosley3030]

I really spend too much time looking at new pedals when I know for a fact my Logitechs aren’t getting replaced until they catch fire, break in half, and get teleported to the Twilight Zone. But when that happens this looks like a cool upgrade. I will be academically interested when (if) you test the Elite V2 set and relate these to those.

[@SimRacingCorner]

I already have a queue of pedal reviews on the go. So I can't consider adding the Elite V2 pedals to that plan any time soon.

[@snake1478963]

​@SimRacingCorner what shoes are you wearing?? I NEEED those

[@Time4utube]

😅😅

[@SakibLH44]

Wow now this is a serious upgrade. I’m definitely going to get this

[@letsgobrandon6545]

This + CSL Invertion kit from Jaditec makes the best pedals I came by to date. Certainly better than v3 Inverted.

[@hall0well1]

Thanks for the review. I ended up swapping the original top part of the throttle and clutch pedals so the throttle would have a heavier spring, then I only needed to buy the clutch mod.

[@Joh146]

I´ve bought this because of your review. It´s really great, but not cheap. With customs included it´s nearly 130 EUR for clutch and throttle upgrade here in Germany. But nevertheless it´s built forever without any issues

[@curleex3838]

Now this is something i might buy soon, made from steel so as you said they will last for yrs n yrs!

[@CamArias]

Great review! Thank you very much for taking the time to test and share your thoughts on this mod. I found your earlier videos about this mod and I am honestly very excited about it. Even now that Fanatec has released the Elites V2, I feel the regular CSL + RSE Kit is a better value. The lack of a better clutch on the CSL V2s is disappointing. For context, I have been using the old CSR Elite pedals since 2015, as I got them for $150 a couple of months before they went out of production and they have worked very well for many years. Since I am on a very tight budget, I can't go as high as V3s or above as much as I would like to. I don't really need to change my current pedals (yet), but it is good to know that this type of option is available. I have 2 questions though. 1. I understand they are priced different, but is the RSE Kit worth the extra cash over the 3DRap Throttle and Clutch inserts? 2. Clutch aside, which one would you prefer? TLCM with bushing mods or CSL with RSE kit + 3DRap LC Elastomer?

[@SimRacingCorner]

Here's my answers... 1. The RSE kit is certainly going to outlast the 3DRAP MOD, so I would say it's a better buy over the long-term. 2. The modded TLCM brake vs. CSL + Elastomer mod, the results are pretty similar. I think they are both good. But The CSL pedals, being all metal, I feel are a better overall for sturdiness. And indeed have lots more options for modding, which is a bonus too.

[@adamharvey9626]

Do you think either of these could be used on the brake pedal instead? I don’t have a rig setup compatible for a LC.

[@KaijuPanic]

Yes you can use the accelerator mod with a stiffer spring for the brake pedal.

[@phillismable6303]

What do you think of these vs the Fanatec CSL Pedals [DIY] Damper MOD video you made. ? I have the DIY mod and was wondering if these make a huge jump in the difference ? Thanks

[@TheGympert]

Nice vid and I'm defenitely gonna get the throttle mod.

[@Psychoh90]

This seems a great mod. My question now is this: wouldn’t be better to buy say the v2 csl pedals and stick with them? I mean thinking also about the warranty

[@Redeyejedi77]

Does the clutch pedal hit that mod when pressed? It definately looks like it in this vid

[@mos4515]

How does this compare to the Rc springs mod you previously did. The price is 2.5x so wondering if its worth the price difference or not bother and just save eventually for csl elite pedals v2

[@mos4515]

@SimRacingCorner

[@moStallion]

Can you make something for the csl elite v2 clutch and gas pedal

[@Chris62Stanford]

Could I put the throttle/clutch pedal mod on my brake, seen as I have the entry level CSL Pedals and are looking for something greater. If so, should I get the clutch or throttle on for the brake? Thanks!

[@thegeneral1955]

Get the loadcell pedal.

[@michaeljunaprasetyakanta9509]

Hi, do you think I can install this in the Moza SRP (Loadcell) pedal set? Looks like the Fanatec CSL and Moza SRP has similar structure and design. Thank you!

[@SimRacingCorner]

They are similar, but I don't know if it will fit. I have a set of Moza pedals, but honestly it's too much hassle for me to test the theory. But there is a custom clutch mod from 3DRAP for the Moza SRP pedals kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGbOcoeCaNaAgqs

[@michaeljunaprasetyakanta9509]

@@SimRacingCorner Ahhh wasnt aware of this cideo before. I just watched it and if I was to buy a mod for my SRP, do u think this 3drap mod is worth over the “rc-dampener mod”? Does the throttle curve add that much more to the immersion?

[@SimRacingCorner]

The 3RAP mod has significantly more tension than the rc-damper. Personally, I'd go with the 3RAP mod. The curve is a nice feature, but not essential.

[@michaeljunaprasetyakanta9509]

@@SimRacingCorner 3DRAP mod it is then!!! Thank you dor ur feedback! Always love ur videos, very informative and to the point. Keep racing ayee! 🤙🏻

[@michaeljunaprasetyakanta9509]

@@SimRacingCorner Just a quick update regarding my findings. Since I’m not a very patient guy and a very curious one, I ended up switching brake pedal and the throttle pedal. Using my logic, the brake pedal doesn’t really need the stiff torsion spring as the red spring and elastomer is much stiffer rendering the torsion spring useless. And I find the stiffness of the brake’s torsion spring is just nice to use as throttle. The only downside to this is that on Moza PitHouse, now the brake and throttle pedal is switched up, but since we’re using PC it’s easily switchable in the game’s options and settings. Sorry if its quite long but does it make sense(?) So far, I’ve been liking this setup. Maybe it can be useful to those who are hesitant in spending more for mods. Cheers! ✌🏻

[@t.g.9630]

How good is the RSE Brake Tuning Kit compared to the 3Drap LC Elastomers? THX!

[@SimRacingCorner]

The RSE brake tuning kit is just an off the shelf spring. Check out this other video of mine, as I answer your question there. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXTHhqKFn9l4nLc

[@JamesBond-mu4ce]

Enjoy every video, which I seen so far, you’re doing great job. But this kit doesn’t make sense to me. Cost over £80 plus delivery then even used csl load cell that something like £40 at least if you lucky find one and basics set of pedals CSL that’s £50 on second market we got them all together, you can pay a bit extra and buy clubsport V3 for £200 - £250 second hand which are much more superior in every aspect. I just ordered DD pro 5NM kit, and only looking for some 10 quid upgrade to these pedals before I will look for v3 bargain.

[@Snaggletooth68]

you stated that you prefer the 3DRAP Fanatec CSL Pedals Elastomer Brake MOD over the Fanatec CSL Load Cell DIY Spring MOD in your video review of those, but what about the Race Sim Engineering CSL Pedals Upgrade Kit V2 vs the 3DRAP Fanatec CSL - Throttle / Clutch PRO Kit? which one is the winner? im trying to decide and buy one of the two and would appreciate some help!! thanks!

[@SimRacingCorner]

If you scroll through the comments, you'll find I've answered this.

[@3Vizo]

Will there be a new batch of these?

[@SimRacingCorner]

You'll need to contact them, I wouldn't know.

[@demetriosmorris9386]

How about these in comparison to the 3Drap throttle mod?

[@SimRacingCorner]

On the throttle, the feel is similar.

[@BtotheDon12]

I'm looking into getting a mod for my throttle to get a little more resistance. How does this one compare to the DIY damper mod? Which would you suggest?

[@SimRacingCorner]

It's pretty similar to be fair.

[@BtotheDon12]

@@SimRacingCorner Thanks, that's good to know. I think I can get the DIY kit for around $20+ cheaper than this mod. So if they're mostly similar I'll probably go with that.

The progressive one.

@@SimRacingCorner thanks

[@KeithZim]

You can do this yourself. If you ever wanted a 3d printer and just needed a hook to grab your focus then: Their "honeycomb" marketing term is actually part of most 3d printed parts. Its a software setting in the "slicer" called "infill" and its configurable. You can even switch from "honeycomb" to triangles, squares, hedrons, ect.... Literally anyone with a printer capable of using TPU, a few tools to measure, and Tinkercad could reproduce these things all day long for pennies each.... If you made your own you could adjust the density of the infill pattern to get just the right amount of feedback. Total investment of time and money, $300-$3000 (300 for smart DIYers, 3k for point and clickers), 4 hours. After which each part would take 30 minutes to print.

[@Sinister4202]

just wanted to ask how loud are these pedals?

[@SimRacingCorner]

The throttle is silent, but there is a chunk when the clutch hits the end.

[@slimracer1553]

Great review! Just to check, were you using the heavier spring for the throttle when you measured the pressure? Did you measure the lighter spring?

[@SimRacingCorner]

The heavy spring was used, the light spring I don't think is worth using.

[@slimracer1553]

@@SimRacingCorner I see. Asking because I race in socks so figured the heavier spring might be a bit much. Thank you for answering all my questions, both here and the previous vid.

[@racesimengineering5827]

@@SimRacingCorner I think most people will find the same, that they prefer the heavier spring. The lighter spring is more intended for people participating in longer sessions such as endurance racing, where it might get a little bit fatiguing with the heavier spring.

[@60CrazyCanuck]

@@SimRacingCorner does it come with 2 springs?

[@SimRacingCorner]

@@60CrazyCanuck Yes, 2 springs.

[@kashifgification]

Good review, thanks. Is there much difference between this throttle and the previous shock mod from ebay you have reviewed (half the cost)?

[@SimRacingCorner]

The results are virtually identical to be fair. Either one is going to do a good job.

[@kashifgification]

@@SimRacingCorner thanks chap

[@stephencheung4361]

Will it makes any noises? Compare with the 3drap parts which one is better dude 🙏🏾

[@SimRacingCorner]

You can hear the clutch make a noise in the video (2:34). The throttle is silent. The 3DRAP mods are good, the throttle mods give a similar result. For the clutch mod, this one is better. And it's all metal over plastic, so this will not wear out.

[@goodchaps4642]

How much is the accelerator mod?

bit old but asking cause video has no sound, does the clutch bottom out against the metal brackets? Worried about noise levels.

The mods are not linked in any way to the platform you play on. They work exactly the same on PC, Xbox and Playstation.
