I'm not sure what exactly you mean.

To run them with a higher level of torque. I am no engineer, but normally with consumer electronics they limit the engine/motor for longevity. So I though maybe the motor when set to 100% it is actually running at 80%. I thought maybe you know more about these kind of motors if it is possible to run them with more torque? Like overclocking processors?

I have no such knowledge, but even if the electric motor can operate at a higher torque it will need very good water cooling.
 
:):)
I did not measure the temperature and I did not have to, because before it was quite clear when the electronics reduced the power of the electric motor in order to prevent it from overheating, after the mod this is no longer happening.

It depends on many settings and people prefer different settings so it's difficult to set an exact limit.:)
I just meant if it stopped overheating thats all that matters.:)
 
From what i understand
Overclock simply means make electronic hardware able to work more than maximum limit its hardware capability
The drawbacks of the overclock is you need even stronger cooling system to keep it work for longer time (*cough if you're gundam fan, it's like TRANS-AM SYSTEM *cough)

Anyway.. i dont think motor in wheel would be effective to be overclocked, since even without overclock.. there is a limit FFB percentage we can use (depend on each game) before we hit clipping point
 
If you are on a budget:
Ask Fanatec if they will ship to your country in the future. In your situation without warranty locally, I would not spend 1k+ USD on anything. Just get a TM product and hopefully eventually Fanatec will ship to your country.

If you have loads of money then just go for it. Its only money;)

I dont think they will ship to Indonesia anytime soon since the demand and sim racing trend is relatively new right here

I did ask fanatec about the warranty.. and they actually wanna help but they cant refund the shipping cost from indonesia to country they ships which is why they suggest buy trough amazon... but if i able to handle the shipping cost they still wanna accept the warranty

Did you at least ask if there are plans for the future? Asia is a relatively new and growing market for racing and simracing.

Yep i did actually ask them,

But since the one who answering me isn't mr. Thomas, a man who tied his hair and beard well in 3 minutes while speaking (if you dont get it, you can try see their PV), here is the quote from their support team.

"I really hope we can realize a Fanatec Asia department. But to be honest i have no idea in how far this is planned yet or if something is planned"

We'll see if there is someone from fanatec and may able to respond it here

They really need to train there personnel. At least he/she could have asked the appropiate division or manager for the information before replying. Or at least just say there are no short term plans for an asia department.

Well.. german is a country where their people usually don't take too much chit chat and straight to the point

For a less skilled way of communication is quite normal so i can't really blame them
 
One last option is to attach an additional fan to your current wheel. The cost is minimum compared to a new wheel. In my opinion well worth the time and money. ). Zero issues after this install.

Ah so you're the one who make that fan cooling
I wanna ask that... will pulling out the heat like that is effective enough to use high FFB power for a long time?

I actually thinking that i may even need one for get the air in and one for out.. or even more.. like... PC air flow that need many fans
