the one below here is a 15$ JLW-TM-8

the one here is about 25$ and its a Sanwa JLF-TP-8T

i’m assuming that the only reason the 25$ stick is 10$ more than the other is because of the wire harness.
thanx in advance
They are two completely different sticks. They have a different feel and specifications. The JLF is by far the most prevalent Japanese stick for fighting games. The JLW is a stick that is more traditional in build and construction.
The reason the JLF is more expensive is because it has a PCB and wire harness and again is by far the most used joystick for fighting games in Japan.

That’s an odd layout: the stick hole is lower than on arcade CPs, HRAPs, etc.
Ok I am haveing trouble getting this stick to work. I am trying to put a jlf inside of it. But I can’t seem to get the wireing right for the stick. The wire harness that I got has a pin layout that reads
1-Orange
2-Green
3-Black
4-Red
5-Yellow
Even when i rig up all the wires i can only get one direction to work and its not even the right direction >_<
here is the insides
You’re wire harness is different colors from the usual. It looks like Orange is the ground on yours. If so, then the color to direction mapping is this:
O - Ground
G - Right
B - Left
R - Up
Y - Down
if that is the case maybe that explains why i can only get one direction to work. I was hooking black to black thinking both were ground.
could that be a seimitsu harness? I have so many parts I might have got it mixed up
^^thanx for the help stick works fine now
Jlf Tp 8t
I got a question on the JLF TP 8T

The way the wires are color coded makes it difficult to hook it up.
I’ve been trying to use this diagram, but since its different I cant get it to work.
and, when I plug the wires into the joystick, do I plug it in so that the two little nub things are facing up or down?
Thanks in advance
Don’t go by the color, because those wires aren’t official Sanwa. Just use the diagram based on the position of the wire.

And I think the correct product ID is: JLF-TP-8YT.
edit: It was 8T, thought it was turned like normal.
What Sanwa/Seimitsu sticks fit in the astro city control pannel?
There are a lot of different types of panels with different mounting areas. There are some that easily allow both JLF and LS-32 (01) to fit (with the proper mounting plates) but others that only allow one or the other. You would have to look at the mounting area on the panel itself.

It looks like this,

The bracket has 3 holes in it, With only the middle one being threaded for a screw.
Sorry the image is so crappy.
Thank you.
Those mounting brackets are designed for Seimitsu LS-32(-01) with a Sega custom mounting plate, which AFAIK can’t be bought from Seimitsu. Maybe there are other sticks that’ll fit as well but I know nothing about that…
Yeah I think, Mayhem is correct although a top view would have been a bit better. I have one of the mounting plates for the LS-32 (01) but I sold my other ones so even if I sold you mine, you’d still need one more. : /

Yeah, that looks like you need the one that I have. I’m not 100% sure though. If you want it, hit me up on AIM or with a PM and we’ll discuss it. Here’s a picture of what it looks like:

Could anyone answer a quick question for me? I’m looking to build a lot of sticks over the next few months and was looking to get a lot of Sanwa and Seimitsu stuff in bulk, maybe 150 buttons, 10 or 15 sticks, plus leads, gates etc. I’ve scoured the other threads and i’m aware of the majority of places that sell these products, but i’m not sure what the best bet for bulk ordering would be, for example, which places offer a quantity discount? It seems that Excellent are the cheapest, but they are limited in choice, mainly in terms of colour. Can anyone give me a little advice on this? Would be be much appreciated!
