Default G35 / 350Z LS3 Swap, Best DBW Accelerator Pedal

What would be the best Drive,By Wire Accelerator Pedal to use on a
G35 coupe /350Z LS3 / 6L80 Swap.
I had a 2013 Silverado pedal but it can't fit properly and it's a composite
pedal so can't cut and weld it.
What did others on here use for the best fit?
Also has anyone gotten the A/C to work?

I've used a newer Camaro pedal and mated it to the factory 350 bracket and it worked fine.

I took the Escalade Pedal assembly and cut it in half then re-welded to fit where the stock pedal went. Pretty straightforward.

Thanks for the replies, I took a 2007 impala pedal, cut off the pedal and re-welded the G35 pedal to it, looks stock now.

I used Drive by cable, not a fan of the DBW stuff


But glad you got it!

^^^^ I agree with You on the Drive-By-Cable Preference, but I'm running a LS2 in My 350Z & I would love to have a DBC setup instead of the DBW!! How is this done?

Thanks in Advance for Any info!

I'm not sure if you would need a new harness or if they make adapters (sure they have adapters by now) . But they make a DBC tb that fits a ls2 intake , then a cable ,tune and roll!
