These Toyota DBW pedal are horrible and when in a light car, even worse. To make it driveable under 30% throttle, I had to extend the arm more then I had to stiffen it to make it feel normal like our other cars. The shocks have thick RC silicone oil and add some resistance and slow the input like a cable. I have an adjustable oil damper to slow the closing on decel when I lift the throttle. It engages at 35%. It was the only way to be smooth going from the quick lift of gas to brake in autocross without the back wanting to come around.

. My o-rings were probably just find as I hadn't had any leaks there but I figured the Hylomar would make double dog sure it wouldn't leak from the threads. Before loosening the finned nut, mark its position relative to the case and count the number of turns to take it off so you can get it back to the same orientation. Do one side at a time. Actually, I think snugging the finned nut will be all you really need to know but it's best to mark and count the turns.
