The Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Joystick is long considered the FGC standard among joystick levers, and has enjoyed its lions share of performance mods and accessories over the years. OTTO DIY introduces a comprehensive kit whose goal is to enhance control through its use of unique materials and modular pieces that replace the existing parts of your JLF-TP, TP-SK or Hori Hayabusa Joystick.
Korean levers utilize a silicone rubber or natural rubber tension grommet in place of a spring. Secured via a bobbin, it lends to a unique feel that plays well for games like Tekken. You will receive two tensions - 40 Shore A and 60 Shore A - with the kit. You can also option bundle the OTTO DIY V2 Korean Style Silicon Insert Kit with the V2 and save $1.00.
OTTO DIY made each major plastic component of the kit out of Polytetrafluoroethylene, or PTFE. It is commonly known as Teflon®. Not only does this material give the kit components their unique color, but significantly reduces friction on components that must interact with each other. For example, the pivot and pivot core of the OTTO DIY kit will hardly need greasing, producing nearly fluid directional control.
Thanks to its JLF component and build similarities, the Hori Hayabusa Joystick is also compatible with the kit. This gives the Hayabusa a number of enhancements previously unavailable to it.

I went to my local arcade not too long ago and played some third strick on the old machine but because I live in America we have these weird Korean adjacent levers that I was kinda digging so I decided to buy this for my home stick and man this just hits the spot for me with the satisfyingly heavy and mushy feel although it may not be for everyone(also modding a stick isn't hard at all so don't even worry about it) Christian on Nov 28th 2023
