Korean arcade parts discussion

@VarmintBaby i have the same issue and the problem is that the e-clip is spining on top of the actuator and its grinding it and we get the golden dust i have same issue

I found this forum few weeks ago and read every single posts. It is sad that it will be closing down.
lucky that I bought the Golden Fanta Mod that @wazwuz made and I really like it. I wanted to try out Green arcade set up and metal core but they were already sold out.
@wazwuz will you be making more of Green arcade set up and metal core?

Would an aluminum battop (with its added weight) decrease the effort needed to move the stick? I don’t think I’ll mind reduced neutral return speed; 45A’s pretty tough.

I actually got a lot better with the 45A tension all of a sudden today… I think it’s due to having kept myself warm recently, unlike before. It’s still an effort to play (my forearm was sore), but I’m much more content and much less stressed about it now :slight_smile: Just little tweaks.

it is residue from machining process. it will reduce/disappear along time. or you can try lubricate it using silicone grease.

yes. they are in stock now. this time we have enough for everybody. Golden Core is crucial update, everyone should try it.

yes. starting 2018 we stock only the revised golden fanta actuator. I have done adjustments so it can support fujin mounting plate (thanx to @ykd for the measurement) but It havent tested since I don’t own fujin.

btw. anyone please make facebook group so we can still continue the discussion.

I made a korean arcade parts discussions group on fb if anyone is interested in joining it. Wazwuz suggested it so that he can post his new tech on their since srk is closing down.

@zero_requiem Can you post a link to the group please? I can’t find it using Facebooks search feature. Maybe it’s too new.

I found it. Typed in ā€œKorean arcade partsā€ and under the search bar is tabs like ā€œpeople, videos, etc.ā€ Swipe right till you see ā€œgroupsā€. It had one result. Pretty sure that was it.

I’m using the fb app on my phone btw.

My friend managed to pick up a Green lever for me! (and himself)
Surprised they parted with it so easily. Can’t wait to try it.

Also yeah, it was great being part of this amazing community. I heard Jasen Hicks is trying to host these forums on his end so all might not be lost just yet. If it does fall through though, I think making a Discord server would be more appropriate. Facebook is very bad for organization and it’s quite personal for a lot of people. I’m happy to set up a discord server and organize/moderate it but I don’t wanna be that presumptuous guy that takes charge without the group’s consent. (ļ¼›ćƒ»āˆ€ćƒ»)

@blankaex I’d be very interested to see if your new Green lever measures any differently than the one @wazwuz tried. Especially with this talk about multiple versions of the lever

here is the link
https://www.facebook.com/groups/171979343412085/

FB grup is more open, so our discussion can easily be found in internet, and it can save picture like ā€œforeverā€.
I know in FB any comments can be easily turn into troll, but I hope we can control our self not to go into it. we are all an adult btw :slight_smile:
SRK tech talk already have FB group years ago and it run just fine.

After this Post I will move into the FB group ā€œKorean Arcade Partsā€, for start I want to share about LowHigh GF setup on FB group
CU there guys

Wow, man you got that legendary lever. very excited to see what setup/version you got.
I just heard about Discord a few days a go, so IDK much about it, and I already make an discord account. Sure, you can try make a server for it please add me ā€œwazwuzā€.

I agree with using Discord instead (way more organized/easier and up to date). I don’t really use FB, but I can see how privacy and personal info can become an issue with names, family, workplaces, etc…

Nice pick up btw!

snort snort

everyone shuddup and go to bed

@wazwuz @Ippo I’ll definitely post thoughts and measurements in a few weeks’ time once I’ve had the opportunity to play with it :slight_smile:
I heard it costed 50,000 won apiece - about as much as a Fujin. A little pricey but apparently the owner came to the arcade just to assemble the levers for my friend when he asked for them. Made to order!

Also I set up a basic Discord server for us. It would be useful to have even if the forums do stay alive. Please join and keep our community thriving!

If your Discord username isn’t the same as your SRK username, you can change your nickname in the server to match if you prefer. It would make it easier for people to recognise each other that way.

If anyone has tried the revised 14.5mm actuator for the Fujin please let me know

Forums aren’t going anywhere. Call everyone back XD

@wazwuz PM send again.

Glad to see the message board is staying online.

It’s not revised. but I have the whole set he makes. a few of us have them here. is there different ones? just got these in december.

Glad to see we still get SRK. the Discord @blankaex Created is also very cool. I hope we can continue to have that to have chat’s as well. Thankful that the Top men decided to keep this place going. Definitely will be contributing to ensure we don’t have any further scares!
@blankaex hopefully you can let us know once you spend some time with the Green Lever, you can let us know how you like it. Speaking to lowhigh it seems like the deal with the old man is that they will sell to non korean people, but will not sell to koreans themselves. I don’t know because some of the people here were unable to get them like @Marios I know recently and others, so I dont know whats up. but one day I hope we can all have them in our hands. I hope you kick ass at Evo Japan with it and represent the Forum in spirit we will be cheering you on for those of us not able to attend!

@ykd Thanks, appreciate it. Interesting to hear about how Green Dad is okay with selling levers to foreigners but not Koreans. I’d heard in the past he wasn’t willing to sell at all - there was a story of a European guy being refused even after offering 1000 Euros I think. Maybe he’s realising everyone’s playing Tekken at home now and would like to use his lever.

And yeah, thanks to everyone for joining and contributing to the Discord server. I’m glad it hit off well and we have so many active people talking and sharing information. The plan was for it to run alongside the forums if they didn’t go down, so I hope to see even more people joining. My only worry is that the community may become split across the two platforms, which I hope does not happen. Don’t forget to post in the thread as well!
