Custom fight stick questions

$

Hi,

My first post, so apologies if this info is available elsewhere, i did have a mooch around and found a lot of answers, but not all

I'm looking/hoping to make a custom fight stick for my xbox one, i have already found videos on how to wire up the PCB, and have found parts i want to use(Sanwa)

I have also scoped out the following parts, can someone tell me if i'm missing something off this list please:

Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Ball Top Joystick
Joystick carriage nuts and bolts
Sanwa buttons(x 8)
Other buttons(x 3) for general use, start, select, power
PCB(s) from Xbox One Pad
Sanwa JLF-H 5 Pin Cable
USB A/B cable
USB A/B feed through connector


Do i need:

A new restrictor gate(i will be playing fighting games mainly, looking at Sanwa GT-Y Octagonal Gate), i'm not sure if these come with my joystick or not


My main questions are:

One of the things i couldn't find is the clearance size needed to comfortably fit the innards of the joystick into my custom case, i want to try and make it as compact as possible
How silent are the 'silent' buttons/joystick compared to the normal
What are the advantages of snap in buttons over screw in
Is there anything i am obviosuly missing(apart from the case..i'll sort that one out)

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Please be gentle, it's my first post and if someone can recommend me a different way to go about this, then please feel free

Word of warning though, i live in the UK and same things are not available to me(one of which being the Brook PCB for all systems, which is why i am having to strip out a controller)

Thanks
