Solution for aluminum touring pedals for base model 370z.

Geeve · 09-12-2009, 12:53 AM

Note: I posted this in another thread but thought this information would be more accessible here.

I contact Courtesy Nissan about the aluminum pedals and received the following information.

You can get the pedal pads for the clutch pedal and the brake pedal, in fact
they use the same pad. The footrest is the same on both models. However, the accelerator pedal has to be replaced as a whole.

-------Q157431-------
PAD PEDAL $77.60
PAD PEDAL $77.60
ACCEL-LEVER $130.17
---------------------
Ground shipping $9.85
Total $295.22

After replacing the accelerator pedal you must complete a "Accelerator Pedal
Released Position Learning" procedure.

----------------------------------------
Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning is a function of ECM to learn the
fully released position of the accelerator pedal by monitoring the accelerator
pedal position sensor output signal. It must be performed each time the
harness connector of the accelerator pedal position sensor or ECM is
disconnected.

ACCELERATOR PEDAL RELEASED POSITION LEARNING :

1.START
1. Make sure that accelerator pedal is fully released.
2. Turn ignition switch ON and wait at least 2 seconds.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
4. Turn ignition switch ON and wait at least 2 seconds.
5. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

Good find.

Modshack · 09-12-2009, 09:52 AM

Too bad they are so unattractive to begin with (and expensive to boot).
Look like something out of a mid 60's Oldsmobile..

Ultimate pedals (real, solid aluminum, Doh) has a set available now..and it looks like SRP (see post 9 below) has some nice stuff also.

ULTIMATE PEDALS

Ah, that is why I was asking for a link. I have checked and never saw anything on their site about the 370z. Good to know we can call, thanks.

considering everything else on my car is stock (well, other than the HU) i think i want to get the factory one even if it costs too much.

Your money, your car....

Personally, when I do a mod I like to look at it as an upgrade, aesthetically and functionally, not the status quo.. I feel my aluminum trimmed dead pedal is one of the cheesiest parts on the interior. More of the same has no interest to me.

Everybody's different here..

yah, but those aftermarket ones look like biscuits or something...

you're still going to be screwing on the metal over the plastic gas pedal housing, correct? that will place your pedal closer to you (not sure if that's an issue for you but functionally it will be for me as i have long legs vs short arms).

i still think the factory one looks better.

Agreed!

I went ahead and ordered the touring brake and clutch pedals. Didn't order the gas pedal assembly yet. I'll update pics whenever I get them in.

sounds good. did they give you a date when they can ship them? are they in-stock?

kenchan · 09-14-2009, 04:14 PM

dang, modshack. good job. so how long does SRP usually take to do these new designs? days or weeks?

guess ill take a look before making a decision.

btw, can they make the gas pedal like 3mm thick? thinner the better.

I had a long chat with the owner today...I got the impression it wouldn't take long at all. He insisted that they do a custom template off my patterns, even if a minor change from their existing offerings like the Porsche pedals, which I think would be right on the money. It's all Cad-Cam, so drawing to finished product is hours, not weeks. He also noticed my heel pad (which he manufacturers), and suggested that we could pattern one precisely to the rubber mat area of the floormats. Based on this, I suspect having a thin Gas pedal done would not be an issue. They seem to be very willing to work on custom and stock applications..
