Pedal Box’s (classes under brakes?)
Hey guys! Curious as to whether or not there are many of you running aftermarket pedal boxes in your cars and if they’re worth it?
It’s something that I’m looking into doing down the line, but figured it may be worth doing sooner rather than later as I’m having my tubular front end doing soon so could delete some bits that don’t need to be there at the same time! Thanks! |
Worth it in what sense? What's the end goal with the car?

a_b.95: remember that some parts enhance some parts of experience at expense of compromises in other (eg. worse NVH). Or some enhance so little, so not making investments in those worth it. If nothing else, because same money spent elsewhere would have produced better results. And aftermarket pedal assembly .. imho not worth it.

Whether it is worth it or not is going to come down to personal preference. I also planned on going to a pedal box. But you lose ABS and then have to figure out the mounting so that it works comfortably with the current DBW pedal and doesn't interfere with anything else under the dash.
The gain is a cleaner looking engine bay and a more precise brake bias. Both of which are minimal gains in a street AND track car. There are enough well thought out brake systems that work with factory set-up. |

I would say no. You'll get good gains if you need the independent front/rear masters for bias adjustment because you've gone with very different calipers than will work with the factory bias and EBFD. |
Cheers for the above guys!
Didn’t consider the ABS loss:/ think it’ll stay as it is for now! Lots to consider, definitely something I want to do as the car gets more na dmore extreme though! |
Unless you're doing it for show points, I doubt you'll ever actually need it or benefit from it. Keep in mind ABS also runs the stability control, so you'd be giving up both.
