Found New(?) Aluminum Pedals

I was wondering if anyone bought these before...
They look very similar to Supercomputer's Acura Racing Pedals, but it's lot cheaper
If these two are not far off in quality, I might consider buying them
The eBay store selling them

His feedback looks okay, but that bottom picture was taken from SuperComputers.

Technically the bottom picture is from my workbench.


And yes, they are of excellent quality. I'm very happy.

He PM'd me the same thing. In addition he provided a logical reason as to the delay on the TSX illuminated door sills. In forthcoming posts, we'll see that that project is very much in a new stage.

Any pedal would need drilling for it to stay in place. Yes, they require drilling. All three pedals.

The dead pedal is not JDM at all and the accelerator would have the whole mechanism with it.

I'll order a set and give it a try, I think SC ran out of automatic ones anyways.

I don't know how piece of metal with rubber inserts can be of a bad quality assuming they'd not fall apart/rust. lol

Bad quality doesn't always = performance.... It can be paying top dollars for a very cheap e-bayish look.

However, the e-bay auto pedal on top looks decent, so I said someone would give it a try.

Is it just me, or does the ebay pic look like the pedals have been PSed. It almost looks like there were Acura logos on them or something. Looks like a slight colour mismatch and the texture is too smooth where the logos would be.

those look like the same exact pedals as the SC ones without the Acura logos. I'm thinking they actually are from the same place that he gets his from, just not with the logo on it. I'd still get the SC ones just because that gap on the dead pedal and accelerator pedal where the logos go looks like something is missing.
