Easy DIY USB Sequential Shifter for Sim Racing. This basic Sequential shifter is made by modding an existing arcade joystick. The design also has minimal fabrication, is neat, cheap and compact.
It is USB, stand alone and can be used in combination with any steering wheel combination - Logitech, G25, G27, G29, G920, Thrustmaster, Fanatec, or OSW.
The wires can be soldered to switchs, but shown as plug in to keep it easy for people without access to soldering irons.
The joystick from standard has little resistance, and needs to be modded to be functional as a sequential.
By relocating the standard plastic ring under the metal plate it increases some of the force to shift. The rubber O ring and carbon plate add more resistance. The carbon also finishes off the top nicely.
Lower spring could also be upgraded to a higher strength item.
Try different thickness O rings / rubber fuel hose, ect under the carbon plate to adjust resistance of lever to your liking.
