Could you Bluetooth mod an original controller? Is there a specific game you want the pressure buttons for? I thought there where only a few racing games that use it.
I have that brooks wingman adapter I used the usb for my fightstick to play Shmups on ps2. The bt on it is good. I paid like $60 AUD, pricey but brooks stuff is good.
Here's a list of games and controllers with the feature implemented. Never thought about modding an og, seems it's usually suggested to just use a dualshock3, I'll searching more into that.
A partial option is that any controller with analog triggers should work, especially as some driving games use them for acceleration (though I would assume remapping would work too). EDIT: One of the wikis says you may need more steps for analog triggers to work (on windows)
PCSX2 also now has a 'pressure modifier' key+setting (default is 50%) that may work in some cases (EDIT: specifically for digital buttons). At least if you have a key for it (like the OG Steam Controller has extra, like the grip buttons... change grip to keyboard key in sc-controller then bind that to the pressure modifier)
I'm referring to a physical PS2 but thanks for the info in the case of using emulators.
