You know I don't even own a FRS/BRZ, but I subscribe and watch every video. Your videos are just so well done, informative and so much quality in the production. Keep it going.
Just installed this. It definitely feels a bit weird at first but so much easier to give a deep blip, especially when downshift to second, which was where I was having difficulty matching the revs.
The accelerator pedal spacing on the 86/BRZ/FRS is set way too far back and is truly annoying when shifting from accelerator to brake and vice versa. The lack of adjustments on either the brake or accel is a terrible design oversight. But thanks to the guys on this site for posting a video about the Velox Throttle Pedal Spacer and ALSO for selling the Cusco Sports Accelerator Pedal. YOU NEED BOTH TO CURE THE LAME ACCEL PLACEMENT! In their video I saw exactly how to do it and armed with this knowledge I bought the part and everything is great again! The only thing lacking in the video is detail about removing the wire connector. It has a tab that must lifted from the BOTTOM edge to free it. It's hard to figure it out when it's all tucked up in the footwell. I have a degree in Electrical Engineering and it took me a minute to figure it out. I recommend unbolting the pedal assembly and then you can tackle the connector a bit closer to the floor mat. Quality of the machining is first rate and the slots allow adjusting the pedal right/left/up/down. The spacer brings the accel up to just below the brake. NOTE: TAKE THEIR ADVICE AND INSTALL IT PUSHED TO THE RIGHT SIDE TO START WITH OR IT'LL BE TOO CLOSE TO THE BRAKE! I added the Cusco Sports Accelerator Pedal to bring it even closer to just a wee bit below the brake, almost even but not quite. The Cusco also beefs up the skinny little orig accel pedal. Now I'm a very happy camper and can effortlessly slide from brake to accel and back. I didn't do this for "heel toe", I have an automatic. I did it for comfort. I don't have to keep lifting my leg up to get on the brake now. The Cusco Sports Accelerator Pedal should be installed with the accel pedal assembly removed so you can easily access the rear to properly place and tighten the nuts. DON'T TRY AND INSTALL IT WITH THE PEDAL IN PLACE!!! You will be endlessly frustrated trying to hold the rear nuts tight while turning the front bolts. The pedal is very well made (in Japan!) and installs easily. Once you have both installed, be very careful driving until you're very much used to the new setup! It has been too easy for the edge of my sneaker to simultaneously catch the accel pedal while I'm braking and this makes for a nasty ABS event as the car fights with itself as both brake and accel are pushed down simultaneously. I did this twice the first day in response to having to slam on the brakes as some idiot cut in front of me. My muscle memory wasn't dialed in for the new placement and I failed to move my foot enough away from the accel pedal. BE CAREFUL!!!
Is this possible to install without removing the wire connector if I'm only installing the Velox Throttle Pedal Spacer?
Yeah that'll make it easier to sound cool on the street when you're not breaking very hard, but you reaaally don't want the gas pedal to be up near your ankle where you can't reach it when you are deep on the brakes. The Pedal extension is a great idea, but maybe learn how to roll your foot or use your heel before running the geometry you'd need on faster drives.
good insight!
Do they make the spacers for other cars as well?
Is this compatible with the GR86?
I need a wider pedal, and one that is closer to the floor. Is that possible?
Same. I don't really want the gas pedal sticking out further. Blip depth isn't an issue for me, it's the abilty to twist my ankle damn near 180 degrees upside down just to allow my heele to touch the gas.
i get cramps in my right thigh wheb i heel toe, shit feels like my leg is about to dislocate
Is this a universal part or vehicle specific?
What is the size of the replacement bolt and nuts?
When did Velox change to Verus?
Is there one of those for Evo?
i feel like if the gas and brake pedal are exactly at the same level, than when you actually brake the gas will be too high up
What do you mean?
Does this work for the '22-23 cars?
WTF this is ridulously expensive for what it is IMO
There are 3D printed ones available. I'm gonna print one and if I like it then I might buy the metal one.
Nice!
My main question, would this still fit with the Weathertech floormats? :)
Yes it will, you shouldn't have any issues.
FT86SpeedFactory alright! Thanks :)
