see, thats a good sign! hoping the bolt pattern is the same across all the boxes

lightness isnt really my reason for doing it, more the seating position i want, as for which pedal, gimme a sec and i'll show what i want to use

lee303 · 11-10-2006, 16:30

something like this

Jamie_F · 11-10-2006, 16:31

bolt pattern is the same Lee, just get one from a F18 box for a vectra.

glad the build is going well.

very noice fella, get what you mean now

seen these used in lots of sapceframe builds, is Animal using this setup y any chance?

lee303 · 11-10-2006, 16:40

matt has a set of willwood pedals for his, i kinda like them but the tilton stuff looks a bit special, not mega money either for the quality and where i want my seat, i cant even get an outstretched toe to the original accelerator pedal

**spanishfly** · 11-10-2006, 16:44

Pedals look nice! Perfect for a bit of heal-toe

what sort of money you looking at then lee?

im a bit annoyed as when i mounted the seat in the track car were i wanted it in relation to the steering wheel/column i cant quite reach the pedasl efficiently, might put blocks on em l

lee303 · 11-10-2006, 18:28

bout £480 with all the bits, certainley not cheap, but no the priciest set i've seen either

james sr · 11-10-2006, 20:19

lee303 · 11-10-2006, 20:49

cheers benn

thats where the seats going, if not a touch further back

**Benn** · 11-10-2006, 20:51

lol
just make sure you can still reach the pedals,
a guy welded his race car seat in....
then found out he couldnt put the clutch all the way down....lol

lee303 · 11-10-2006, 20:55

**Benn** · 11-10-2006, 20:58

lee303 · 11-10-2006, 21:09

lee303 · 11-10-2006, 22:21

i'd love to see the face of the scrutineer at the next track day

i think my body would get confused being shoved forwards when accelerating and backwards when braking

**Benn** · 11-10-2006, 22:29

ooo the feeling would make ya puke...

rob_lee_1 · 12-10-2006, 07:14

would be worth doing just to see if you did puke!

0ddball · 12-10-2006, 10:54
