Does it need to be approved by mods? I mean it is not going through the forum really. The guy making them has the group buy on his own page. Best to ask though.

Good point about contacting a mod.. I'm going to see who would be best to drop a line to, I don't want anyone to get in trouble/be treated unfairly.

Liquid Anarchy I only have the CAD drawing for the dead pedal.. check your PM.

Just found out there was a post about this in the group buy section, linky here https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...hreadid=279119
I'm not sure how much info you guys will garner from it, though, I think most of it is contained in this thread.

Sweet, I just want to let everyone know that they will definatly be coming with the all bolts, no screws.. It will make your life easier, esepcially if you odn't have a nice little hardware store in your area like I did.

Just ordered mine after seeing the installed set on Wanko's 7. I've been needing replacements for the rubber OEM pads on my 89 FC. Compared to the crap you find in the auto parts stores and the price they're asking for 3 pedal sets these are a great deal.

Thanks for letting us know about them.

received a 4 peice set on Saturday and installed them Sunday afternoon. They fit without any problems and they look and feel great. I was able to remove the plastic cover from the dead pedal but had to drill thru the cover on the gas pedal. No problems with mounting the new pedals, just a little akward, and the self tapping screws work great on the gas pedal once I put a phillips bit in my drill, just needed more torque to set these screws.

Test drove it last night and the gription of the new pedal surface is fantastic, my old OEM rubber covers were just about ready to fall off and they were slick, that's slick in a bad way. The clutch and brake pedals have the "RX7" in releif and really dress up the look of the car.

Thanks to everyone that made this possible. The effort put into the project will be appreciated by all who are able to buy a set. We have several FD owners in our local club and once they see'em mounted will be wanting a set for thier rides.

I think there is a picture of the turbo on the first page of this thread. I was under the impression that the only difference was that those contained the word turboon the brake and cluthc pedals. I think they would both say Turbo as opposed to the FD where when sais twin and the other says turbo. Is this correct wonko?

I honestly don't know... send an email off John's way, but fair warning: He normally didn't get a chance to respond to mine until ~1:30 AM... at least, that's when most of my replies are timestamped from him..

Took 2 weeks as they advertised because they were waiting for the group buy to end I believe. I'm not sure if its still going on or not.
