the clutch pedal on my '87 TII is worn to hell, so I'm looking for an upgrade

anyone have any suggestions for a metal pedal set, or a place to buy them? i'm likin the razo pedals because they have the heel toe extenders, but i cant find any places that sell it (and ebay currently has a limited selection of ugly ****)

 

does universal pedals work?

 

thats what i'd like to know :p

check out the attachment, i like those, but i dont see em anywhere

 

You can get the stock pedal pads from Mazdatrix for like $5 each.

 

autovation.net sells awesome pedals, kinda pricey but they're great.

 

word.. I have autovation.net's pedals.. there nice -specially when there clean, but beware of the gas and teh brake bing close together.. takes some getting used to.

 

They're supposed to be like that for heal-toeing though, aren't they? Does anyone track their FC with those pedals and have any feedback? My gas pedal is pretty shoddy and I've had my eye on a brushed set of those pedals.

 

I'm not a qualified race driver, but I've been racing for years and have been framiliar with those techniques for about 3 years.. there great for heel-toe shifting..

-I say that mostly for those that install the pedals for the first time and are not framiliar with the setup.. Say, you start driving and end up braking for the first time and hit the gas as well as the brake... typically catches you off guard at least once.

 

I have a set of sparco pedals and I've never used them lol.

The universal pedal kits will work. I'd drill holes and use screws if I were you, don't use the crappy *** brakets.

 

I've tracked my TII with these pedals and they work fine. I should note though that depending on brake pedal travel of each car one may have issues with your heel getting stuck under the accelerator when heel toeing. sometimes on the street though ill tap the gas while hitting the brake by accident but its no big deal

 

I got the Mazda Optional Factory Pads. They say Rx-7 on the pads. I have seen pics of infinis and they all have it. I bought mine from a ebay store. They have like 4 left. So be quick. Brand New and free shipping. Buy it now price only at $105

 

the autovation ones are badass, but 100 bucks is a little too much
i like the razo ones because of the way the edges extend to each other
its just that i cant find a single place that sells them

 

AutoVation has had 2 group buys in the GB section.

It looks like there are more people that still want them too. Post in the threads for them to bring the GB back like others have. They brought it back once I don't doubt they will again. You can also try PMing them and ask if you can still get the GB price(they did for me). I have the Matte Rotor pedals on my FC and I love em.

 

I've got Razo pedals, but they are just covers. They get the job done quite well, though. I'll try to get pics in a little bit. Unfortunately, they came with the car, so I have no idea where to get them. They are excellent for the track, though. I can heel-toe (well, operate the gas and brake with my right foot at the same time) very well.

 

I got them in the group buy.....SICK pedals, I got the rotor stamped ones....

They do work excellent for heel toe shifting, but to be honest I have pretty big feet and made light work of this before the pedals - hehe

all in all - great fit, great looks (can't beat a pedal with a f*&%ing ROTOR on it!!), and great price (thanks GB section!)

I would recommend these to anyone

 

I got the rotor shaped autovation pedals for chrismas... I cant wait to put them on my car when I get some time off from college and get the car back on the road from winter.

 

Yep, I'm the same way, but its still much easier with the pedals made for it. I can't do a true heel-toe because my legs are too long and I have to bend my knees out to fit around the steering wheel.

 

+1

I got mine from some ricer website, just google razo pedals.

 

They're pretty sexy. This summer if I meet up with other MN folks maybe I'll let you take my FC for a short drive?

 

I have Autovation pedals from the first group buy, back in the day.. I love them. I'm ordering a set for my Miata before this next season starts, if I have the cash after my turbo conversion.. I find that they don't slip or anything even when wet/dirty.

I'm pretty dead set against a non-screwed in cover. I've driven a cars with the slip on, clamp down style, and they always seem to slide.. I'll never have them in my car.

 

UNIVERSAL PEDALS ARE GAY!@$!@$

Stop being pussies and man up and get some made for FC3S
I've seen the OEM Mazda pedals that were an option in japan on ebay, theyre skinnier and say RX-7 on them

I myself have the autovation pedals and paid like $65 or 70 for them and includes all 3 pedals and the dead pedal and I love them. Just make sure to get it right drilling the first time and space the gas/brake from each other so if you wear skater shoes you dont catch both pedals too easily
I love them, theyre very kickass. Buy them! Very nice hardware and took about an hour w/ a drill. My roommate helped because I don't know how to drill lol, also helps to have someone to hold the pedal, or put a block of wood behind it.
Also put some newspaper over your floormats/carpet as youll have metal shavings EVERYWHERE. I killed a vacuum cleaning up and I even had newspaper. The stragglers that escaped the newspaper killed my damn vacuum!

WTF rotor stamped autovation pedals, goddamnit. I bought em like the month they came out!@$!@$
I'll have to buy new ones just for the rotor stamps LOL


I could healtoe better w/ my stock FB pedals and setup, just mustve been perfect spacing.

I got these for bling cause I missed the ones that the guy was fabbing at work before his boss canned that idea and I never got em and kicked myself for it so bought autovations as soon as I saw em.

 

I can hell toe and drive great with my stock ones...when my feet are wet they slide all over the pedals though I might get teh auto aviation ones.

 

Im not sure how the razo's are, but judging from the pictures they use the same shoddy *** brackets as most "pedal kits" do.. The brackets are a royal pain in the ***.. they are pieces of dirt, complete garbage, blah blah blah.. if you want to get some different ones, get ones you can mount properly and do some drilling to make um stay on.. my bracket ones fell off, i feel mass hatred towards those canadian tire pieces of ****, and I am gunna keep the factory pedals the way they are now until i decide to buy some quality.. you really do get what you pay for..

 

^DO IT. you wont regret it. if youre unsure and I see you at a meet you can try mine out... that's if you can fit into my seat
