HEEL TOE SHIFTING

On my sprinter is it possible to adjust forwards or backwards the brake or gas pedal. I had to make a block for the gas pedal but there has to be another way?

sigh......get off your arse and have a look at your pedals and answer your own question

Seriously though, a lot of it is just adjusting for your car, most cars you can do it fairly easily with a bit of practice.

not trying to pick here,
but if you are doing a triple rotor "convertion" into an AE86, then why are you having difficulty finding out how to adjust your pedals??
not doubting your credentials, just a little confused....
c'mon, whats the story

also, try looking at the shape of the proper momo and sparco pedal sets - notice the (backwards) L shape the accel pedal has? its fuckin near-impossible for me to heel/toe without this kind of pedal

Hmmm, strange... I found my AE86 was pretty much spot on for my big flat ugly feet

ed ditch those ghey chunky sneakers and get a pair of dunlop volleys or if u are fashion concious a pair of converse all stars
they are great to drive in.
but yes we still need to design some pedal covers.

the heel toe shifting was fine, but since i installad bigger ventilated supra brakes, the brake pedal sticks out more

I dont suppose you removed the pedals, put em in a vice and bent them to the desired position?

there is no need to adjust anything. not rating myself here but i can do it perfectly and i just got my 86 5 days ago.
learn to do it properly, and you should be able do it straight away on any car. try lifting you heel up more, swivel it to the accelerator, then floor it with your heel (if that helps)
not hard at all

oki, i was just curious... if you have the technical ability to change brakes and install odd motors, then brake pedals should be within your grasp
so why does the brake pedal sit up higher? did you change master cylinder? did you alter the "pedal height adjustment stop" when you did the swap? you have to ask yourself what you did that changed it.... even my 69 rolla has a 'brake pedal stop'
