Default racing pedals

i'm looking for racing pedals. what's a good site to find plain aluminum racing pedals? i'm looking for ones that look similar to the ones on the WRX...something simple. also, is it difficult to install the pedals, and would i be replacing them or just putting them on top of the ones i have?

www.optionsauto.com ... the shipping is killer though. i personally like Razo models and opt auto has almost every one.

Welcome to HAN

Most 'racing pedals' slide right over the stock pedals.

check out www.ebaymotors.com

i have the Momo Superturismo's. theyre plain and simple and i love them

if you get good pedals youre gonna need to drill into the pedal. most of the cheaper ones come with brackets that slide over the pedal then you just tighten down the screws. good pedals you need to drill. i dont know if they make pedals they replace the whole pedal. they would be costly also

i have the ex 5 speed. i love it! i had a mustang gt before it, and i decided to get the accord because i live in an area where it snows a ****load. i loved the mustang too, but i thought it was time to move on, and i was going for comfort and convenience, which i definitely have in the accord.

Mustang GT is real nice, but the interior of that car is just plain awful. I would buy one in a second if the interior wasn't worse than that of a low end Korean car...in my opinion, of course. Probably because I had to lean forward slightly to grab the shifter h: The 2003 Accord has the best interior in its class by a bit over the Passat and it is far better than the Altima's. Of course, I probably would have held out for the V6 6 speed...I'm a sucker for that engine. The EX 5 speed is very fast though...a bit faster than the 1998-2002 V6 model

well, i was looking to get the v6 6spd, but my friends dad is a manager at a dealership and he told me they were only getting one and they were going to sell that one on ebay for an amount which i couldn't afford. i needed a new car soon for the winter and i didn't want to wait until they mass produced the v6 6spd later in 2k3, early 2k4, so i opted to just get the i4 5spd. i would have gone v6, but i wanted the manual trans.

I would've done the exact same thing. I'd rather have the EX 5 speed manual than the LX V6 automatic (about the same price). The K24 engine is absolutely amazing, and probably a little underrated in power output. Congrats on the new car :thumbup:
