DIY hydraulic pedals (t500rs)

[gorzasty]

Hello guys

I'm trying to mod my t500rs pedals with hydraulic parts. At the moment I'm buying all the necessary equipment: master and slave cylinders, springs, dumpers, USB controller etc. but I'm not sure about one thing - a pressure transducer. Derek gives a link to this one: http://www.digikey.com/product-sear...o&lang=en&site=us&keywords=MSP6895-ND&x=0&y=0

The one has 1000psi. I make some searching through the Interent and I've found that pressure in real racing car can be around 2000 psi while very agressive braking. From the other side I cant have my pedal too stiff becouse of my aching knees ;/. So I'd like to be somewhere in the middle with the force needed for max braking.

I'm not sure at the moment how can I be able to change the pressure of the all unit (amount of fluid and air in the cylinders, or springs) and how my controller (http://www.**********************/12-bit-controllers.html) will calibrate all that stuff - have no experience with this.

All my project will be something similar to this one:

but with t500 pedals. (I have already the same master cylinder)

Can anyone tell me what is the best choice with pressure sensor for me?

Best Regards!
