Those pedals are not on all Manual trans. only those w/limited slip differential. I am sure you can order them though. Call the dealer.

Good luck

Huh? Why would a dealer not have the same pedals? Nissan is Nissan.

Try DaveB for pricing...he is in TX so I am not sure about international shipping.

Honestly, I'm not sure if I'm too thrilled with them. I have them on my car (HLSD equipped), and they definitely look great, but my left foot (clutch foot) slides all over the pedal if I'm modulating the clutch pedal more than a couple of times. It's extremely slippery because it's metal (no rubber), and I sometimes end up having to shift to neutral just so that I can take my foot completely off the clutch and correct it.

Is anyone having a similar issue with this, or is this something to do with my seating position (although I doubt that)? By the way, this happens if I wear sneakers too, not just dress shoes.

The AE pedals are made of metal AND rubber, which may help with slipping. The AE gas pedal, however, is all metal.

Sure does! I don't have that problem at all.

I've never seen the AE pedals, but the HLDS pedals are all metal as far as I can tell.

Well mine probably has them too (can't look right now b/c I'm at work). Anyway, have you had this slipping problem? For example, say you're in stop-and-go traffic, and you want to creep up, so you let up off the clutch a little just to get going, but then you press it down, and then you let it up again, and press it down, etc etc. Well, my foot ends up sliding to the top of the clutch pedal, and ends up being in an uncomfortable position. So I have to shift to N to reset my feet.

Has ANYONE had this problem, or am I alone on this?

Not sure why you would have to go into N to readjust your foot. If I want to reposition the foot, I will lightly slide it into position AS I am depressing or releasing the pedal. Only if I change my entire seating position do I need to be in N or while moving (highway, etc)just take foot off pedal and do whatever you want.

Yeah, I have the 2K2 SE with the metal pedals. That happens to me sometimes too. It doesn't bother me though. I really only have a problem with it like when I get in the car if it's raining and me shoes are wet. Other than that, it's cool. I love the look of the pedals, and any problems that I may have with the clutch is way offset by the awesome look, IMHO.

The reason why I need to shift out to N is because I don't have much control over the clutch when the foot gets out of position. If I try sliding it out, I'll get serious jerks/bucks or will simply peel out. This always happens in 1st gear because of the modulating, so in 1st gear I need to be smooth with the clutch, and when my foot ends up where it does, it's not possible to let it up smoothly.

Yes, I agree. Perhaps in my initial posting I was a little too harsh with my words saying they're not worth it. Let me rephrase that, and just say that I have some inconveniences with them once in a while. BUT, they do look great!

Now long you been driving a stick and how long this car?

Not flaming, but it sounds like practice/experience could help alleviate some of this.

Yes, jjs, you're right! I've only been driving stick for as long as I've had this car, which is just under 2 months right now

So perhaps this will go away as I get better.
