I just installed GK Pedals! They look great! I have new tail lights, blue vent haloz, a new megan racing sts on the way and also some APE shifter bushings coming too. Also, I have some blue neon tubes for under the seat on the way too. I love birthdays! Will get pics everything is here and installed.

Go get some 2 part epoxy bro, the rubber cement will only hold for so long. I did that and it lasted about 6 months, I now have epoxied mine with some epoxy that was labeled for rubber and plastic and it's held like a CHAMP. Just make sure you use PLENTY of it, follow the instructions, secure it in place, and put something under the entire drivers section of the car before you put it on because it WILL drip.

The stuff I used setup in like 5 minutes.

its a kingsafe (old shark racing) bar, with longer bolts, and spacers to knock out the 2nd bar enough to sit in front of the intake, and 2 bolts for each side, along with spacers where needed. the blue cover caps on the spacers are just clearish blus river vacuum line that i slit down the back side and used it for a cover.</div>

Wow man, that looks fantastic. Where did you get the second bar? I'd like to do the same thing.

Thanks for the tip! When ever it falls off, I'll go to autozone or where ever and get some of that. No biggie, but they are alot better than my other two sets of pedals. Cheap too! Like 17 bucks from the dealer.

i have probably a 6-7 strut tower bars sitting around, that was one that the length was right on that i knew i could make work. u could do the dual bar with any of them as long as the length is correct.


and kinda fitting, i also put the GK pedals in awhile back, and im having issues with them staying, last thing i used was a rubber contact cement (which failed horribly)

Just remember, if you use Rubber cement.. not only will it fail, but it could fail at the worst possible time. While not too much can happen if you foot slides off of the gaspedal.. but what if it gets jammed beneath the brake at the same time?

Ok.. other than the sticking your hyundai into a ditch and totalling it mod.. here is my newest:



One nice brand new M-sport Front bumper for my Ti. Picked it up for $270 shipped via a group buy on the Bimmerforum. Now all I need to do is go get my damn car. THis rental mitsubishi is killing me, but with my working 15 hours a day, 7 days a week, it is hard to find time to go up to Mass. and get it.

If I make a measurement for mine, will you let me know if you have something that fits it?

Also, the clutch and brake pedal should fit perfectly, just take off the old ones first. The gaspedal, trust me, 2 part epoxy. It's like 5 bucks, and practicly welds the shit together.
