OBP Track-Pro Pedal Box w/o MC, BMW E30, LHD

[Jean]

So, here is another option for us with v8 swaps.

https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/productdetails.asp?RecID=9663

This is a complete pedal box that replaces all 3 pedals, minus the master cylinders.

Has anybody seen any reviews of this? Fitment, issues? Durability?

[NickL]

Seems legit. Basically like what garagistic has to offer but a bit more complete/bolt in. No need to modify the throttle linkage etc.

Someone try it out

I saw Bill Caswell post this up a while ago. If I could move the seat to the back of the car, maybe I could use this.

[MJCRO]

That is eff'ing nice.

[Jean]

@Farbin - yep, saw it too. My concern is well it fits inside the cabin in terms of alignment with driver, I would hate it if it shifts the pedals left or right etc..


I may be selling my garagistic pedal assembly, just need confirm a couple things first on this pedal set.

Back when I first put my manual pedal box system together I found some guys in the UK talking about that floor mount option. If its the same one they said the fit is really bad and there are a lot of modifications they ended up making to get it to fit right.

[Jean]

That would suck, links?

My car had a floor mounted pedal box when I bought it and I couldn't get my legs between the steering wheel and the pedals. I'm under 6' too, I couldn't understand it

I replaced it with the garagistic pedal box before it was sold by gargistic. Couldn't be happier

Jean, you asked for links?

"The problem is is the brake pedal bends.... " wtf

and

"I have one and its a piece of shit.... about to be thrown out.... not cutting is a lie.... i had to cut, weld, modify all parts of the pedal box to make it work and even now the pedal bends!! where it bolts to the fire wall has to be massaged. there is no spot for the accelerator cable to be mounted let alone a way of connecting it to the pedal lever arm. The pedal box ends up too close to the driver and thus the steering wheel has to be extended towards the driver. The pedals are at bad angles when set up so that the master cylinders dont bottom out on their allready awkward angle.. its just all wrong. Think about what you would do for a brake light switch??"


both are from the same user, I would like to find more, and this was used in the RHD car , not sure if that makes any difference ...

it took me two weekend of removal and patching in new sheet metal to restore my e30 floor to it's previous glory after I removed the hackjob the previous owner did of installing floor mounts. It wasn't as tidy as this piece, it was a tilton box. My Garagistic pedal box feels perfect and stable.

[Vtec?lol]

Meh I'll stick to my wilwood setup.

"This product brings the pedals 30mm closer to the driver"

I'm 6'2". No thanks

The other problem with a floor mount box is that you lose leverage. Instead of just pushing with your leg, you have to also bend the foot. There is a reason why the 993TT came with a hydroboosted clutch.

Also, $579 is pretty steep. And that's before you buy master cylinders.
The garagistic bracket, wilwood pedal box and master cylinders can all be had for under $500
