Sim racing · head‑to‑head
The MOZA CRP2 Load Cell 2-Pedal Set and the Simagic P500-2 Dual-Sensor 2-Pedal Set target completely different tiers of sim racers, separating high-end heavy-braking performance from budget-friendly entry-level value. While MOZA aims for maximum resistance and quick customization, Simagic offers an accessible entry point into load cell braking at a fraction of the cost.
The Simagic P500-2 can suffer from inconsistent brake feel under hard braking because its single elastomer shifts inside the spring, and users report input lockups when using SimHub for haptics. Meanwhile, the MOZA CRP2 requires a heavy-duty rig to prevent tilting under its massive resistance, and both sets may require manual greasing out of the box to fix squeaks or scratchy travel.
If the MOZA CRP2 brake feels underwhelming out of the box, you can drastically improve it using the official first-party Brake Performance Kit or by customizing the included elastomer stacks.
If you have a rigid cockpit and the budget to spend $369.00, the MOZA CRP2 is the superior performer thanks to its massive 200 kg load cell and effortless tool-free adjustments. However, if you are on a tight budget and need a solid metal entry-level option, the Simagic P500-2 delivers decent fundamentals at $134.00, provided you can overlook its minor software and elastomer quirks.
