Track / Racing Pedal Installation?

Track / Racing Pedal Installation?
Has anyone installed these type of racing pedals in their Z? I'm trying to get some better spacing for improved heal - toe. If someone has installed these on a 2003 manual 350Z can you post pictures and let me know how the installation went. What did you have to remove, add, or do to make install these? I'd like to see some 350Z specific instructions and insure that the manner that they mount is super secure.
Thanks for the help.

When they drilled through them and installed over the factory pedals did the height stay the same? I love the relative height of the gas and brake pedals and would not want that to change.
I'm installing these to get the wider pedals to improve heal - toe. The factory pedals, look similar but they are not as wide and for me pretty tough to heal - toe on.

Have you looked into the 380rs pedal instead? I have one myself and it definitely makes heel-toe a lot easier. Installation is really easy also.

I have the exact (I think) pedals in my Z. I got them from Autovation Technologies about the end of 2003. They mount by drilling holes through the pedals and utilizing screws to hold them in place. Once installed, they will not go anywhere. Here is a picture of mine installed..................

^i've had the autovation pedals on my car now for about 80,000 miles. nice placement and easy to heel n toe, especially for those with big feet. however, the rubber bits on the clutch pedal wore off very quickly for some reason.

KornerCarver...so those went over the existing pedals and add about 1/4" to all pedal heights for the thickness of the new pedals? Can you take a side shot of the throttle pedal and the brake pedal? I'd like to get a view of the "sandwich" if it's easy for you to do.
These look a little wider than the 380rs pedals. My Simpson racing shoes are pretty narrow and heal-toe is toe. So I think getting the throttle and brake closer and ideally keeping them at the same height is what I want to do. The pedals are pretty pricey so I want to insure it works before shelling out the money.
Thanks again!

Was looking for the 380rs pedal pedal but nobody has it in stock. With the horrible situation in Japan right now Im thinking they prob wont be back in stock in the US for a while. I tried Z1 motorsports and Z1auto. Sucks!!! Anybody know of a place that has them?

Just talked to Scott at Fontana Nissan, none available right now. He is going to get a few sets on the way from Japan. May be a little while.
