    Hi!
    I am still debating between a diy brake pedal like this: https://chippedwood.wordpress.com/2015/09/03/diy-hydraulic-load-cell-sim-racing-pedals/ or maybe like this: http://www.x-sim.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=1090
    and something like the nixxim load cell kit for my actual g25 or similar. For the same cost of the nixxim kit I am not sure if I can build my own DIY pedals (I think this willl cost more, altough having more fun too while building).
    But to make it harder for me I also read today about i.e. fanatec clubsport pedals v3. Before I keep on dreaming ..... I want to try to estimate the cost of the pedal set.
    Can someone estimate how much would it cost (eur/$) to make let´s say a pedal set like the first ones I posted? The second ones cost around 150 eur, as the thread owner mentioned.
    Also, since there are so many pedal sets around too, what other options may I have in the 200-300$ price range?
    I know it is not easy to answer but any hint is welcome :)
