Well, I switched out the shafts of the Namco and the Sanwa, but it wouldn’t work right. The stick wouldn’t go back to nuetral w/o me putting it back in nuetral position so it kept the microswitch pushed down. I tried switching springs, but that didn’t work.
Not sure what parts of the sanwa I’m supposed to keep, and which ones from the Namco I’m supposed to use. Man I wish it would just fit in the case. I keep wanting to make a new bottom for it to give it more room, but we’ll see.

How do you change out the restictor plate? I can’t seem to take out the square restrictor.
Sloppy work…
not as sloppy as your attitude, bitch.
edit:
in reply to Dark Chyld:
You push in the 4 triangular plastic hooks and then it comes off.
Oops, maybe I wasn’t being clear enuff, it’s the smaller circular piece inside the restrictor (actuator?) the square one is clear while the octagonal one is yellow.
I’m not sure how you change those out. I took a quick look the other day and there might be something you push to get it out. Why don’t you just order the whole thing from Rod. You get the plate, with the gate already inside.
You just rotate it. You have to Push it in and then you can rotate it. That is how you switch it from 4 way and 8 way and for taking it off.
hmmm…modding the t5 stick seems like quite a bit of work…maybe someone here could do the mod for me in excange for sexua…i mean money…hit me up on PM if anyone is interested

Hey, I’m new to all this, so I’m trying to mod a fighting hori stick 2. I already got the sanwa buttons and stick in, now I just need help with the soddering. Here are some pics, what I need to know is where the ground wires need to go, like the one that came with the sanwa stick. and how to wire the buttons. thanks in advance

Damn! is that really a motor inside your stick, vig?
If you search this thread, you can find the joystick configuration. The Joystick wires as far as UP, Down, Left, and Right, you can solder directly to the PCB. The ground wires need to be daisy chained. Here is an idea and or example, how to wire your buttons. The only difference is the U.S. microswitch has three connectors. As far as the Sanwa buttons connectors, it doesn’t matter which one you use for ground.
just had a quick question. what do you guys use to cut lexan? also, where can I find something to cut lexan? some people have told me to get a glass cutter, but havent seen any around my area and also dont know what they look like. just wondering because i was going to build a sanwa stick soon and mount my buttons on the lexan.
A few questions…
How many different Sanwa sticks are there?
Are they all top mounted? I’ve noticed that one doesn’t come with a mounting plate…thats bottom mounted?
Also, which stick is the one with the extra long shaft, I presume its for bottom mounting?
Where do you guys pikc up your sanwa parts? Sanwa’s site is all japanese and unfortuantely I can’t read it…any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.
There are 3 Sanwa sticks to my knowledge:
1)JLF-TP-8Y - Standard Sanwa stick / JLF-TP-8YT Same stick with mounting plate
2)Sanwa Flash - The optical Sanwa stick
3) Whatever is in the original green HRAP - the Virtual Fighter Sanwa stick
All Sanwa stuff was meant to be mounted in a Japanese cabinet which has a metal plate. But for custom stick making it’s easier to deal with wood therefore you have to either route out the wood to the appropriate depth, or use a mounting plate to mount the joystick.
