SF4 Tournament Edition Round 2.....Stick Tension

Hi there! Ive modded my TE R2 stick so i can now use an octagonal gate....but now the sticks tensions seems a little too loose for my liking, im not really 'up on' which parts can be used with certain sticks so id love a bit of advice.....

 

Id prefer medium tension.. which spring would you recommend?

 

Many thanks for any help received :)

 

Ohhh... P.S - I will also be modding the main 8 buttons at some point. Any recommendations?! Cheers :)

While this isn't something I've tried yet, it's possible to put a Seimitsu LS 33 spring inside of your Sanwa JLF for increased tension.  Akihabarashop.jp posted a pretty good video regarding JLF mods, which they call the "Ultimate" mod.  

You can get the springs at LizardLick: http://www.lizardlick.com/Seimitsu-LS-33-Spring_p_425.html

Here's the video in question:

Regarding buttons, it really depends on preference.  Sanwas are the standard for most fighters, but not the only ones.  If you're looking for increased tension all around while still responsive to presses, Seimitsus are good, too.  I'd also argue that the Seimitsu's PS-14 KN line is great for stick customization, specifically because you can put LEDs or artwork in the plungers.
