You mean Round 2 8)
The final price landed was $95.90AUD, and the minimum is 6 names.
Keep in mind that the more we buy, the cheaper the shipping gets, and the previous price was for 10 sets.

I like em cause they are truly \"bolt-on\" with the only exception being the foot-rest which needs to be drilled.

Yeah. Does anyone know if there is a Mazdaspeed parts catalogue for MX5/Miatas available online?

probably is, but I couldn't find it. There are only a few retailers for genuine Mazdaspeed products, and Moss seem to be the best value.

These guys have the biggest range, but they didn't reply to my email last time. I'll try them again.

I'll start round 2 soon and limit it to 10 names, cause it kept it under the $1,000AUD mark (just in case it gets hit with duty and whatever)

So ... do you all like 'em?

Should I set up Round 2?

yup. I love them. Excellent stuff!! :mrgreen:

quick note:
To fit my pedals I liberally sprayed silicone spray on the new pedal and the metal base.
Fitting from the bottom up was a PIA so after 5 minutes I decided to go from the top down.
Used a flat bladed stubby screwdriver to pop out the bottom corners and viola!
Dunno...maybe took 30min including drilling and fitting the NB footrest (I have a NA8)

The skunk2 on the other hand.....
I ended up removing my quickshift shaft (2 pieces) and cutting about an inch off the
center and rewelding it. Much, much better now as it just stuck up too high before.

I did the exact same as you re pedals. I couldn't get enough leverage on the top so I tried it the opposite way. But where you succeeded, I failed and just cut two nicks on the bottom corners so I can lever them out easier.

Geez ... you've had your pedals for more than 72hours and you've only managed to put on one pedal?! :shock:

Muzdaman, you are the weakest link. Goodbye

I didnt get a chance to put them in prior to Sat morning as I the car was having a new radiator put in.

I finished puting them in yesterday afternoon. I did the clutch alot easier than the brake pedal. I ended up usind a flathead jewelers screwdriver. Its was heaps easier to use in a confined space.

I also decided to use the dead pedal over my standard NA pedal. All in all they look great and im happy.
