When you have a rollbar and dont pull the seats this is how you install pedals and adjust them

One of my shifter cables had a broken cable so i tried using Poofys old 2g cable. 2g cables have more movement so it worked great in my car. But because of the extra movement i dont think a 1g cable would work in a 2g.

You can see that the metal piece on the 2g does not get in the way at all

well sir, 9 months later the real maiden voyage happens. Had to pick up a second manual trans because the first one sucked. so i took it to a car show for its test run. ended up running great, finally!
