    Saw this video last night after getting the brake kit earlier this week. As someone who generally likes a firmer brake pedal I followed GM’s rec and put the three green ones in there. My thoughts below during my first few laps testing:
    Lap 1: this is brutal, the pedal isn’t even moving how am I going to drive without immediately locking up.
    Lap 2: Too lazy to change out the greens for softer reds so let’s keep driving
    Lap 3: you know this isn’t as bad as I thought, especially for heavy braking zones.
    Lap 4: I kind of like this but trail braking is pretty much impossible.
    Lap 5: oh wow I think I can trail brake even better than I used to be able to
    Lap 6: how did I ever live without this?

    It should be a consistent force required through the travel, but I'm also a fan of having some mush/take up initially. Helps trailbraking a bit, and also that's what actual brakes feel like.

      I totally agree. Thats what I did when I modded my T-LCM pedals. Medium spring then a medium 45 shore, a large 45 shore and a large 45 shore. Nice mush at first and then firm.

  • @mr6291
    @mr6291 Před 4 lety +16

    Good video! BUT, don't use WD40 on the moving parts, it'll strip out the existing grease. Use the lithium grease as shown by Fanatec in the spots they recommend. Secondly, if you care about the wiring to your brake vibration motor, you MUST put something in between the swinging arm and the back of the pedal before removing the brake pin. The mechanism WILL crush the wire if you don't. I had to use a screwdriver as I had one of the older performance kits. The new ones supposedly come with a little L-shaped brace to protect the wire.

    • @GamerMuscleVideos
      @GamerMuscleVideos  Před 4 lety +2

      I used WD40 on the Club sport V2s for years and the joints were fine and it was the only thing that stopped them from making noise, I don't disagree that some other actual liquid lubricant would be better though.
      Howver what is likely is that most people have some WD40 lying around and in lots of cases a small amount of WD40 will redistribute what was already there and clean up what was causing the sound-making issue. If after a bit of WD40 there was stiction or binding / still sound then it would be good then to apply some lubricant to the joint.
      Any time anyone says WD40 you get 100+ people saying "It's NOT A LUBE IT STANDS FOR WATER DISPLACEMENT 40" which I think most people already know by now to be honest.
      I push the loadcell in when moving it down so its not crushing the cable , I bet people are just as likely to break the cable from the motor flopping around as they would be from accidentally crushing it I think with anything like this its just a case of being gentle :)

    From the manual: Adjust the preload screw so that the scale is within the correct use range and there is no mechanical play in brake pedal.
    Note: Preload screw cannot be used in the full range as before, its use is limited only to eliminate the mechanical play.

      Mechanical play is separate to Throw and movement, mechanical play is movement without any pressure on the load cell.

    GM!! I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU NEVER USE DW40!!! That stuff breaks down the grease and is used to free off seized nuts and bolts!!

    • @GamerMuscleVideos
      @GamerMuscleVideos  Před 4 lety

      This comes up every time , Yes WD40 is not a lubricant but it also works fine on the joints and stops them squeaking I say this from having club sport V2 pedals for over 2 years and WD40 worked fine to keep them smooth. If they have stiction issues and other problems then sure some specific liquid lubricant would probably fix that.

    • @nilsnilsnilsify
      @nilsnilsnilsify Před 3 lety +1

      It's a solvent - it washes away the grease. It stops them from squeaking for awhile probably because some of the grime in there was contributing to the squeak and it got rid of it - or simply because the carrier is a liquid and that lubricates the surfaces for a bit. Then it evaporates (as it's supposed to) and you have a nice, clean, unlubricated metal to metal contact. So yeah, it "works" for a while, which is why so many people continue to use it as a lubricant and say it's fine, but seriously m8, it's ultimately causing more wear and tear on the parts. But also, thanks for the vid, it was helpful :)

    I wouldn't suggest putting WD-40 anywhere near your pedals, it's lubricating properties are very short lived and will also remove any existing lube, leaving you in a worse place then before - It also stinks. It's best to use Silicon grease for non metallic parts and lithium grease (or mineral oil) for metal to metal.

    hi great video. ive been wanting to buy the brake pedal performance kit for while now but have really bad knees at the minute so have been just using the standard springs that came supplied with the v3 pedals.
    will this new set make me a cripple in 6 months if im using them a couple of days a week? or are is the force required not much harder than the standard firmer springs? thanks

    • @GamerMuscleVideos
      @GamerMuscleVideos  Před 4 lety +1

      You can still have the brake be sensative not require a ton of force so the BPK is more about changing how it feels :)
      I tend to run my brakes super sensative so i dont have to push that hard .

    • @i2nupman
      @i2nupman Před 4 lety +2

      The brake kit is to allow you to adjust the throw (distance) and overall feel to your liking, not how hard you need to press. The amount of force (pressure required by your leg) would be set through the menu (BRF on wheelbase or Fanalabs), 100% would require the least pressure, or set with manual calibration in the driver menu. I highly recommend the overpriced kit as I think the feel and consistency is greatly improved. As stock it feels like hydraulic brakes with air in the system....mushy; the kit gets rid of the mush.

    What does setting the brake sensitivity to 60% on the wheel do? Doesn’t that make the hardest you can press it then only reach 60% pressure? Seems pretty weak, no?
    Also, ever try the dampening kit? I got the inverted so it came with it and I quite like it, but not sure how it compares.

    • @GamerMuscleVideos
      @GamerMuscleVideos  Před 4 lety

      The lower the BRF setting the less force it takes to hit 100% brake IE more sensitive

    • @chrisc3825
      @chrisc3825 Před 4 lety +1

      GamerMuscleVideos interesting, thank you.
      I ordered the elastomer kit too when I got these pedals but haven’t tried it yet. Figured I could move the dampener to the accelerator if I wanted. I should give them a try. I found that I really didn’t gain any time or improvement otherwise moving from CSL Elite pedals with the load cell brake pedal, but maybe I need to spend a bit more time tweaking these (although I realize those were good pedals also). Oddly, I found I was .5 to 1 second faster in ACC going from the CSL Elite v1 with the same rim you have on your shelf to the right to the same wheel set you have now, which is totally against common wisdom. I think it’s because I’m not good to begin with so cutting a second off a lap wasn’t about eeking out the last tenths but being able to better keep the car under control on through turns, which most good drivers already take for granted. I also found I could drive the 911 without ending up in the grass 😂.
      Anyway, good stuff, thanks, and keep it up (but don’t get stuck too long in your rig 😉)
