Heel-toe is difficult on my corolla just because the gas pedal is a fair bit deeper than the brake, supra is perfect. You could cut a piece of 10mm thick *hard* foam the same shape as the gas pedal and stick it over the top. Try payless plastics or something.


I'll definitely give that a go. My accelerator is a bit deep.

As for the stick-on pedals, got to give them a miss. They really sound dangerous now

I had a set of Momo ones years ago, they were really good. Had to drill through the pedal itself to fit them, but made it easier to heel/toe as you can adjust the gap between acc and brake.
Probably unnecessary on many cars out there, but on some its useful.
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

It much just be me, but I really like small pedals :oops:

I don't know why either.

All though I might try glueing sand paper to my little square pedals.

go to your nearest skate shop and ask for some sticky grip sand paper stuff, i forgot what its called been so long since i had a skate board :oops:
that will be better then any sand paper and it can get wet and still stay on the pedal.
even if they have some off cuts from re-covering customer boards, works really well.

Or go to a safety shop and ask for the adhesive abrasive grip stuff they use on stairs.
