Looks good, these pedals are starting to grown on me. Maybe they will be my next appearance mods. They will match my new polished aluminium seats.

I think they look ok, but I don't really get "racing" pedals. The stock rubber is better than anything you will find aftermarket. True, they may not be as flashy, but do you really need to show off your pedals? Be careful with your feet sliding off, especially in the rain.

They look great, they really make a good improvement. I also got mine from autoaviation but I got them when they were selling them with the Z28 logo and on ebay a few years ago.

Hey, what do you have connected to the obII under the dash?

That is my EFILive FlashScan Cable. It stays connected all the time.

Just when you're driving, or no kidding all the time? If it is anything like my HPTuners interface, it'll pull power at all times when plugged into the OBDII port...couldn't figure out why my battery kept draining until I found that little 70mA draw

Nice pedals...after seeing mine up close and personal today, these are definitely on the list.

Hey guys, check out these pedals I found while I was looking around. They have grippy ones too. Kinda neat but pricey. http://www.ultimatepedals.com/catalo...hp?cPath=29_30 .

As for the comment about slippage when they're wet, they have raised edges (at least mine do) that "grip" your shoes...traction is no problem wet or dry...

Ditto. These pedals are the shiznit, mine are engraved with WS6. The guys at dynoproauto even sent me an extra clutch/brake pedal. These have held up pretty damn well though. They still look new after having them for 2 years.
