trim pedals? where??

bobby8621 · 06-04-2009, 12:42 PM

just picked up my blck,m/t,sports package. It didn't have the aluminum trimmed pedals. I saw on the forum that its not the first time this has happend. I pointed it out to the sales manager. they are ordering me a set. just curious to know why this car didn't come with this standard feature like it should.

i never got the pedals either. Which is annoying, but I never really liked the ones on the touring, so I am trying to make my own.

Standard equipment list (Base + sport) makes no reference to aluminum or aluminum trimmed pedals (per window sticker). This comes on the Touring though. Sounds like you BS'd the salesmanager pretty well ...

Nice, but not cheap, stuff here:

ULTIMATE PEDALS

Chupacabra · 06-04-2009, 02:43 PM

ultimate pedals is not making them for the 370z yet. i have sent them 4-emails and asked if they need help with dimensions being as i am 30 min. away and i get nothing back.

Ultimatepedals does seem like a good option if/when they come out with something for us. A little pricey but it really seems like quality stuff.

I'd bet the Contours for the 350 and G35 are so close it wouldn't be an issue. Nothing a little Macgyver'ing couldn't solve..

I noticed that myself during my research.

Thought it was pretty STOOOPID that the Sports package doesn't include aluminum pedals. Not very "sporting" of them.

actually if you look on the nissan website under spec.. aluminum trimmed pedal are or should be included standard.http://h1.ripway.com/holycow88/370zaluminumpedals.bmp

I assume "aluminum trim" means aluminum along the outside rim of the pedals.

All-aluminum pedals is what we're looking for here.

I have been searching for racing pedals for a while as I would like to have easier hee-toe effort. I thought Ultimate Pedals would be great. However"

1. I called 5 times. Would you believe that they have no answering machine service? Gosh! I have not heard the 'busy tone' in 2 decades and was shocked that a company like Ultimate Pedals would actually not have such messaging system.

2. I emailed them. Guess what? No response.

3. Website looks decent, but that is the only plus I see so far.

i looked on the nissan website there is nothing on the website that says you get all- aluminum pedals in the touring package and there is nothing says that you dont... its very misleading... if it were me id argue and get it.

The site does include the "aluminum trimmed" pedals in the (text) list of extras that are included in the touring edition (equipment in addition to the Base equipment) so it is there for the Touring package. The Checiklist comparison has the pedals dotted for both models. This is obviously a mistake. People make them all the time when editing web page content.
Honestly, the pedals are a little goofy looking anyway. It is very easy to replace them with quality solid aluminum parts. I'm sure any universal set can be made to work just fine..

Easy enough to answer: those who bought the Z with the Touring package... does it come with aluminum pedals?
