Stick Part Buying Guide?

I have a SF4 TE stick, and while I love the thing, I have a lot of issues with the Sanwa buttons being too sensitive. You really never want to rest on the buttons since they have a hair trigger and nicking it can result in an undesired press (I have a B+K button next to my A and G and it makes me want to cry when i go for a throw and I face palm instead...rare but it happens). My biggest issue is if i'm holding down guard and go fro a grab punish I let go of G real quick and slam it back down with A_B...and stand their guarding. The G never depressed fully to allow for a grab to occur, thus it read G the entire time.

So i'm looking for buttons that wont trigger when i breath on them but are still high quality.

Problem...I'm a n00b with stick mods. This is my first arcade stick ever. I've seen replacing vids, but I don't know the parts. Is there a guide for what parts are known for? I don't wanna buy buttons that are under sensative, known to break, or just repeat my issue.

So any buyers guides we can link? Also anything on how to get custom graphix on my parts?
 
One thing you should consider is using a normal button layout. You have an arcade stick, you don't really need multi-binds. If you really need them, you should be using something like:

ABK
G12
where 1 and 2 are your multi-binds.
As for the throw, I suspect you just aren't lifting the button far enough. I have never had problems without it just not releasing.
 
woah nicer read. thanks.

I may mix my buttons. I like the super sensitivity of my hotkey ones for slide inputs and Ivy stance binds, but i would like my 4 staples to maybe click or have a deeper register.
 
i say go with seimitsu. they'll pop right in and take care of your sensitivity issue. i use them on almost all of my customs. easier slide inputs and perfect sensitivity imo.
