What do you guys think of this.... (complete hydraulic pedal setup)
Turbo Mini Forums

This is a link to ebay where a company is selling a complete hydraulic pedal set up for a mini. To me it looks exactly the same as the set up on the moss website but the 1 on ebay is £300 cheaper.
What do you guys reckon? Is it worth the money?

This is the one from moss;

I have bought a couple of things from that seller and they have been pretty good quality and those pedal boxes both look very similar

I looked on the guys website and it seems they sell to companies so i reckon moss buy from them, wack on there fee's and flog it to us. And because people think oooh its moss it must be good quality and buy it. The advert is identically written. So i reckon its the same thing i just wanted another opinion. Apparently willwood do a similar setup but not including the accelerator for about 400 quid. Which would you go for?

The seller is the manufacturer of the pedal box.

I'm thinking about installing some floor mounted pedals with the master cylinders under the floor.

depends how low you mini is. My mini is only about 3 inches off the floor so underneath is an option. I do reckon this all in one unit is a good idea and a better design than the normal mini one. Floor mounted pedals are abit racecar-ish arent they?

Are there any pictures of it installed? It looks nice enough to me though.

Here is the link for the fitting instructions of the Mini pedal box

This is the one I am thinking of fitting.
Underfloor master cylinders.

This is the system fitted to our Miglia:



I'm not sure where it came from but gives an idea of what is involved.

Needs cleaning up, but you can see the three braided hoses going up to the reservoirs mounted in the inner wing.

Thanks for the pic Paul. Do you have any of the master cylinders? Looks like they probably made the pedal box just for that car.

The most difficult part of installing floor mounted pedals is fabricating a mounting for the box.

We just built 8 chevy/holden touring cars at work.. Used AP racing pedals.. Nice but masters were forward of the pedals. The box they do with reverse mounted masters costs a fortune..

I think the OBP one should fit nicely. I'll post some pics when I finally install one.

Perfect.. Thanks

Balance Bar and Limiter Valve on the rear circuit.

How do you find the pedal position? I guess the heal plate must be raised about 8 or 9cm of the floor.

Got my pedals... Look ok

Will take a bit of fabrication to make them fit.
