Heya there guys, just needing a little bit of help before I accidentally destroy my accelerator pedal. I have recently bought a set of Sparco pedals which I really like and have installed the clutch and brake pedals...albeit a bit of trouble as drilling through the metal resulted in not being able to screw the nut of the back because of the damn set up of the pedals! But anyway, on my r33 i haven't drilled through the accelerator pedal yet as the metal pedal doesn't fit all the way over the original pedal, there is roughly ~5-8mm overhanging if I did mount it to the original.

Thus getting to my question... is there a special way to mount my after-market pedal or some way to remove the original pedal to the metal backing behind it? (if there is a metal backing behind it!)...or would i have to bear with the over hanging plastic or file it down to suit or something like that?

Thanks in advance guys! thanks.gif

    • Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!)     I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.
    • I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding).   I feel your tyres may be beating mine
    • Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springs  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
    • Ok got some old tyres for you guys...my car has been sitting around un-driven for about 6 years now. I had it on the original rims with the shitty compliance tyres it got it with back in 2006, which were manufactured in 2004... Sidewalls eventually rotted and split open, obviously no air in them and the rims were holding the car up. Just swapped them with some 17" Work rims and tyres which are probably 10+ years old too but at least holding air
    • Nah mate, safe as $800k apartments
