Just search for someone parting ou their SC300 or selling a swap, either way you have to drill through the firewall, move two computers and remove some carpet. The pedal set, lines and slave cylinder ran me a lil under $400 used.

My $0.02 take it for what its worth.

DO NOT USE MK3 CLUTCH PEDAL ASSEMBLY! Matt (redpheonix) had issues with it going straight down to the floor board and also with the shaft that links into the resevoir. I bought the whole kit from driftmotion for about $360 I think. Well worth it unless you can find someone that's parting out there 5spd SC like (SC'd SC400) mentioned. Good luck!

Sorry to hijack, but I can't get my cruise to work! Does yours work and did you have to do anything to make it work?

I agree with everyone else, don't use MK3 pedals. Just go to driftmotion or find used parts - makes it easy. Upgrade your clutch if you plan on boosting!

I havent installed the transmission yet being it is my DD and all. I should be working on it the 1-9th of November Ill let you know then.

Oh and just to let you know before you try to install the clucth pedal and master cylinder, have a second person help you. Trust me when I say it is a pain in the *** to do it by yourself. It is possible however.

sorry for the thread yank.

Mine is done. I thought the pedals were easy, and I did it alone.

I'm telling you, if you are very carefull with the work you are doing ,you can make mkIII pedal fit perfect! I did it. But it requirers a lot more work.
