Dead Pedal Owners in OC/LA Area

Who has one of these DP's pictured below in or better yet out of their car?
I would like to hook up with you if I could and get some better pictures and measurements from it. I spoke to a machining company that says they could possibly duplicate it. Just need the measurements.

Thanks!

Will it be bent out of sheetmetal and then stamped or machined from a solid billet?

[b*saint]

holy shit you want one machined from a solid block? Why? Its just a foot rest.

If you're going to machine this out of a block, I want a nose panel machined too.

This is for the 5 serie. Doesn't fit the e30. You will need more than just measurements. You'll need to have one in hand and actually do a mock-up.

Is this why you asked me this morning for some measurements?

No, I asked you the measurements for the other style DP you have for sale so I could buy it but it didnt cover the tear in my carpet. Then I emailed you again to see if you were ever gonna make this style DP and you said no.
That is why I want to get one made.This DP looks to me like it will cover the rip.
If you were to eventually make this model I wouldnt be having one made. Id just buy yours.

The width of the part that connect to the clutch stop just stops short of the top of the rip.

Got referred to a shop close by that says he needs one in had to copy it. Says he will slam one out if I get one to him. Simple...
So now im on the hunt. Few mods here and there and it will work for what I need it for. I just want to cover a rip in my carpet that getting bigger and bigger as I step on the clutch.

yea but it would probably cost 50 cents to stamp and actually be stronger than a machined piece. Only problem is the die would cost 30 grand.

Archie, you don't seem to want to hear what people say. The picture is from an e28 part. Won't work on the e30 chassis.

[Raxe]

Just fab up one of your own? Can't be that hard to make some measurements and a cardboard mockup, can it?

[Massive Lee]

Or look for a ready-made unit...

Lee,you dont know me and dont know how I work. I guarantee you there will be a BAD ASS DP in my car soon.

Yes sir... We start on it tomorrow.

Wont work for what I need it for. I said many times im using it to cover a rip in my carpet. Ya got to listen also I guess?

[-limp-]

youre kind of a prick

[delatlanta1281]

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, I would expect the OP would listen to someone like Lee considering he has been down the dead pedal road before.

[DragonOrta]

I'm pretty sure Lee makes a dead pedal similar to the one you're looking at. At least he did at one point. I've got one.

[-limp-]

i vote nobody helps out the op because hes being an assfuck
