Does anyone else's gas pedal feel a little "sticky" at the top? Also, does anyone else's sit a little lower than the clutch/brake. Mine do and I think it sucks.

No vibration but DEFINITELY lower

I don't get the vibration in my pedal (thank god) as some other people mentioned they get. BUT I DO notice that the gas pedal is SIGNIFICANTLY lower than the brake pedal. When I had my 2001 GXE and it got hit, I didn't have the car more than just two weeks. So I wasn't TOTALLY used to all it's little quirks, measurements, etc. I was in a Camry for 18 days and I was able to "heel to toe" from the gas pedal to the brake pedal...they were almost at equal levels, in respect to the kinds of pedals they are. When I got back into my Max after that time I found that my foot would hit the SIDE of the brake pedal trying to do that and I had to RE-ADJUST so that my foo would automatically lift up a bit in order to catch the brake pedal when I needed to and not get into an accident But now that I have had my SE for over a month and it's the ONLY car I drive, I'm used to it so it doesn't suck that much anymore I'm sure if I get another car and drive each intermittently, I'll get annoyed by it again.

Perhaps if you put a different set of pedals on you can change that? I'm looking at getting racing pedals, but I haven't done my homework yet....

I have the Momo Tuning with the large gas pedal but so far I have only been able to get the gas pedal on. The kit it came with sucks and the screws aren't long enough. Even with the large gas pedal it is still real low and kind of far from the brake.
