Installed Full Set of WRX pedals and deadpedal...Lot 'o Pics


GranTourer

Recommended Posts

I got the brake pedal on 99% of the way (one year after dead pedal.. SLOW install ;) )

 

That thing is a bitch. Its holding now, but I would rather it go 100% of the way.. time to lube it up..

 

is it possible to buy a new electronic metal acc pedal, rather then hammer out that pin?

I have a 5mt and had MAJOR problems installing the Clutch and Brake. I did a search on this forum and found the 'easy' way to do it. Sit in the drivers seat and press on the brake pedal from bottom to the top in one smooth fashoin it will strecth the rubber and it will fall onto the pedal . Try this I bet it will work.

 

Good luck.

Rehab is for quitters.

Got mine from a LGT member who bought them for an 07 - Doh! ^^^ Hint ;)

The dead pedal, clutch and brake went rather flawlessly. I used a bit of the old 5min 2 part epoxy to make sure they never leave =D

The go pedal was a bitch, but thats cause it was 10 pm and i didnt wanna be hammering it out in my apartment, but i finally went outside and used the concrete

Was anyone elses an expansion pin? That made it a real PITA! I could grab it for the life of me with pliers or anything. When i had it almost all the way out, i acutlly clutched it into my cordless drill and spun it a few times and that loosened it enough to get it all the way out.

Once it was out (iow: compressed) it had no problem sliding into the new pedal =D

going to reinstall tomorrow AM with a few spacers I have left over..i figure 3 or so should raise it up, least its an easy mod if I find thats to high

Heres pics of the final install!

I used i think either 5 or 6 3/8" washers (from the hogzaust mod) to raise the bottom of the pedal up.

Now its level with the other pedals! But when pressing on the brake, the gas is actully Higher than the brake now.. so its basiclly still the same problem, but in reverse. I think im going to take out 2 washers and see what happens.

PICS!!

Just installed these WRX pedals on my car and they look awesome! Just bumping this thread so people know about these that don't know about them already. Gas and Clutch are a pain in the ass to get the top part of the cover over the pedal.

 

I can't believe that I waited 3 years before thinking of buying and installing these bad boys.

 

FredBeansParts did a great job shipping these to me suuuuper fast!!!

I installed a set as well about a week ago. Mastro told me they wouldnt fit, but I insisted to the guy that 05-06 is cool, 07 is the single pedal :) Finally got them, with the autospeed deadpedal (sick!)

 

I'm still (slowly) trying to pull the little rubber over the pedal for the clutch and brake pedal...I've had the brake cover fall off on me a few times now :lol: I had a set on my old 2.5RS as well, so i know the pain in getting these on :lol: !

I so badly want these pedals.

 

One quick question. Is there any more "slippage" when you shoes are a little sloppy from snow/rain/mud?

 

+1 +1 +1

 

I was thinking this exact thing as I read your post.

 

 

When I got my LGT, it already had the STI style pedals on it. They are metal and extremely slippery when it's wet out. I actually have a pair of shoes that I cannot wear when I drive the LGT because its almost impossible to get my foot from slipping off the clutch when I'm shifting.

WRX pedals feel far more secure to me that the stock cheap rubber. No issues with various footwear.

 

is that including if the soles of your shoes are wet/sloppy from rain or snow?

 

sorry to semi-hijack this thread, these pedals look beautiful but I don't want to jeopardize safety

I have these installed on my car, and they grip better than stock if you have wet soles on your shoes when you get in the car.

Yes. They increase safety actually. Never slipped my foot on them unlike on stockers.

i have ordered at my dealer the Legacy 3.0 Alu pedals

 

the Clutch and Brake pedal fits well

but problem: i have an electronic accelerator pedal (Leggi Diesel 09)

 

and the pedal which was been ordered was the version with the pin

 

its not the same size and dont fit

 

i have made a phone call to subaru germany and they only have from Leggi 3.0 the complete assy electronic pedal Denso with alu pedal mounted

 

its not possible here to get that acc pedal piece to fit over my pedal

the denso unit should cost about 150.- Euro

 

in the parts catalogue on dealer PC its pictured , but has no order number

 

 

QUESTION: is it possible to get only the alu acceleration pedal in US which fit like a cover to my electronic denso pedal ???

Did my WRX pedal yesterday.

 

Clutch and brake were a bit of a PITA because for some reason, the top part of my rubber pedals were super glued to the pedal itself :mad:. I had to scrape off the glued-on rubber with a cutter blade. The pedals were tight at first, but after some soapy water and a small screwdriver, I was able to fit them in.

 

Now the accelerator pedal, what can I say.....:mad::mad::mad:. That pin was tough to get out. Took me about 40 minutes to do this one.

 

Now I look at my pedals and there is a big :) on my face. Just need to get the dead pedal this Friday.
