Both shipping and production costs for the Otto DIY kits have gone up twice in a single year, however, the increase in price is lower than the additional cost to us to maintain a reasonable value for this kit.

As of June 1, 2021 Shin-Etsu grease is no longer included in these kits as it's not required to optimize the performance of the teflon pivot (it was made teflon purposely to use without a lubricant)

In our opinion, the Otto DIY Kits are the best upgrades for your Sanwa Denshi JLF joystick.  The Otto DIY Kits upgrades the key parts of the JLF to improve on the input motion, feel and overall provides more precise execution

Once you install the OTTO DIY Kit, you'll immediately notice the difference

Easy to install, low cost for a complete kit upgrade and that's it, you're ready to go

Otto-Matic Upgrades for Sanwa Denshi JLF and now Hori Hayabusa Levers (non-silent)

IMPORTANT NOTE: These kits are to be used with the Sanwa Denshi JLF-TP-8YT-SK (not recommended for the Silent versions) or the Hori Hayabusa levers (not silent optical)

For the majority of the past decade, the modding market has always been in existence, but the reach and distribution has been very limited.  A joystick (or lever), in this case, Sanwa Denshi's JLF-TP-8YT-SK or Hori's Hayabusa levers, consists of many parts as shown in the diagram, which each piece being a vital part to the motion, accuracy, feel and overall experience

OTTO DIY, has come out kits to make it easy for the novice or advance modders to customize their lever to their preference 

Choose Your Style

• Otto V1 - Anomalous Roller (Pivot) - If you prefer a very short throw, here you go.  You can invert the pivot to achieve two types of feedback.  With the pivot tapered downward, expect a faster return to center.  With the pivot tapered upwards, expect a "bouncier" feedback and a shorter throw
• Otto V2 - This simulates the feel of a Korean Lever
• Otto V5 - Improved components to the Sanwa Denshi JLF stock parts.  Basically it will still give you the feel of a Japanese JLF lever, but with smoother more accurate motions

See the attached diagram for details on contents and how to install
