Foot Pedals, any recommendations?
All, I'm looking for some nice foot pedals for my race car. I had OMP's in my last car and was fairly happy with them but wanted to see if there was anything other folks liked as well.
Thanks in advance! James

I would just go with Rennline's fully adjustable pedal. Costs a bit more but you can set it up for however you heel-toe shift. Worth the money. You can save a bit of money if you blib the gas with your heel and not the side of your foot; they have a pedal that is much wider at the bottom. A spacer will push it out a bit as well.
Good luck |

I don't think that they make them anymore but I picked up a used "Wingz" gas pedal extension, works great

I use the Rennline Brake/Clutch/Dead pedal combo in "perforated" but couldn't get the adjustable gas pedal to the correct height for me to do proper heel-toe in my SC at the time (4 years ago?). Not perfect (though better) in my 964. I'm sure they have fixed whatever issues there were and with all the adjustability they are the best out there. I simply made a plate for my gas pedal out of aluminum and used washers to get it to the perfect height, used the perf stuff for the rest. If buying today I would go with the non-slip black perforated ones.. Rennline Aluminum Pedal Set - 4 piece - Perforated - Porsche-Rennline, Inc.

I love my Rennline adjustable throttle pedal. When it came I realized that the linkage rod would need to be cut and welded, so I wound up paying my master mechanic to do the install. He will never let me live it down, but once everything was properly adjusted and LocTite-ed it made a huge difference in ease of heel-and-toe work. The finishing touch was a Smart Racing RSR footrest. Perfect driving position and control.

It seems like everyone loves the rennlines. Any comments on OMP pedals besides what the op said?
