well for me i all ways hate the pedal lay out on toyota's

so i made it better

i cut the brake arm in half and move it back 1 inc and rewelded it on wiht some side plates



so now i don't have to lift my foot up to tuch the brake cause now it is closer to the gas pedal i love it to hell


makes heal toeing so much easyer and rev matching is so easy


i highly recomend this to any one and remmber weld it right cause really your life depends on it

Doesn't a really good quality , professional set of Pedal covers do that as well???
I know I have seen some brake covers which are made to make heel / toe driving easier.

But nice way to get creative man....if it works..thats all it matters.

Yeah heal/toe sucks in our cars because of the pedal height difference. I always tried to figure out why Toyota did that. Good job fixing it Nash.

No

There is a major height difference.

well reson being is supra brake lever's will never hit the floor there is about 3 incs give or take

well as why did i just play with the stop screw well then you are really mucking some stuff up same with the booster

now here is the great part by moven the arm back you get a more agress brake control kinda like short shifter is like akak tuchy brakes

i think it is cool idea cause it's cheep and it's better then stock

you can buy racing pedale set up's that have hight ajustbilty but thous are exp and be pain to fab in

I'm not sure on the Supra, since I've not tried, but most Toyotas have an adjustable brake pedal, you can make it sit lower by just adjusting it.

The problem I have in my RA64 Celica is that the gas pedal is too close to the tranny tunnel... :( No worky.

He can't post pics.

Interesting about the adjustability. I'm gonna have to look into that if I ever find one that I don't like.
Mine was perfect, though, so no need to mess with it.
Perhaps it was already adjusted...

Hmm, interesting idea. However, for mine at least when the petal is being pushed down on agressive braking its level if not below the throttle. Now I am no master of heel toe by any means, but it seems fine to me... when I attempt heel toe at least.

I see, that is lower then mine by a lot. Looks pretty good, just hope your drunken weld doesn't break under severe braking... man would that be bad.
