Hi All.

Me and a few others have been looking into other options from the usual Allspeed http://www.allspeedengineering.com/index.p...o-clutch-detail , OBP http://www.obpltd.com/obp-shop/race-car-pe...-clutch-obp2305 and minitec http://www.superfastminis.com/WILRACEPEDALKIT.htm mini specific pedal boxes.

Coming to a conclusion that this setup would be the best option (Yes its basically the minitec one with a better pedal box, but its a lot cheaper than getting a minitec one to the UK). It does not come with the mounting bracket so you will need to make one up and you will also need a brake light switch. Obviously if you are going to fit something like this, the above should be fairly easy for you to produce.

You will also need to change your brake line routing, servo, etc.

Firstly the pedal box, using a 6.25:1 ratio (the nicer looking one with adjustable pedals and billet swing arms, that are a smidge longer than the version minitec minis use).

For the clutch and front brakes 2x 0.750 master cylinder kits. These kits and cylinders are very good and come with a few options to fit reservoirs.

Finally 0.625 master for the rear brakes.

I have not double checked the cylinder sizes (Kyle has done this) but they sound about right.

The above comes to £370 + VAT at 20% = £444.

UPDATE:

Rally designs have got back to us with a group buy discount if 3 people are to buy. This is the discount....

£49.66 each plus vat for the cylinders and £140 each plus vat for the pedal assembly. Total of £288.98.

Now my maths makes that out to be £346.78 including VAT. Saving £97.22!

They will give more discount if 10 kits are purchased.

If you would like one please add to this list.

Whats the benefit over the KAD setup at £355

Internal master cylinders. This setup does not come into the engine bay at all if needs be. I will be having the reservoirs located inside the car.

Also the KAD one protrudes quite far into the engine bay!

This is the brake light switch from the minitec kit



Here's the mounting bracket they have used

I would be interested in the pedal box, if this happens soon, but will look to use remote reservoirs. Like this.

edit: just seen this is the triple pedal box.. im might be using the double. Still interested in a price though.

Edited by MarkGTT on 10th Jan, 2013.

The master cylinders above come with the bits to make the reservoirs remote. They are also a lot smaller than the one you linked and are alloy.

Its not a triple pedal box either. It just has two pedals but three cylinders so you have dual cylinders and lines coming from one brake pedal.

Rather than a single dual line cylinder. Where the pedal operates one cylinder and two lines come from that cylinder. Front and back respectively.

Or a single cylinder that has one line coming from it that then splits. Like a standard mini setup.

Hopefully that makes sense!

I'd be interested depending on the discount available and how long it takes to get sorted.

am i being a tit and missing something but the 3 links you say add up to £370, i make it £306.5 (179.5+63.5+63.5)

prob wont be in this but im gonna watch as its something i've been meaning to read up on :)

I could be interested, if its cheaper than 370. Also depends how quick it comes through. Ive been looking for a while now for pedal boxes.

Haha my fault really. I should have said.

Anymore interest?

Another update on this chaps. The price has come down considerably and that's if 3 people are in. Here's the message i got today....



Hey man I got something back off them today finally and have been speaking to one guy from the company. He said if I can get 3 people on board the prices will equate to:

£49.66 each plus vat for the cylinders and £140 each plus vat for the pedal assembly

Now my maths makes that out to be £346.78 which is vat included. making a saving of £97.22 however I got back on to him and am grinding them down to see if I can get more of a discount especially if 10 people are buying. If we can drum up 10 people the price is going to drop even more. Not sure how much yet as they are muling it over but an almost £100 saving isn't a bad start :).

Could a mod move this to the for sale section?

If not should i make a new thread in the for sale section, or is it ok here?

cheers

I am interested. Would be better yet if there was more discount and more buys. I assume it would still operate a brake fluid pressure switch on earlier cars.
Is there any info on the dims of the brackets that have been made?

Yes the pressure switch is on the front subframe and in line with the front brake lines so it would still work fine in that case.

I'm in

To get the number of 10+ will you take consideration of people on all the forums you have advertised together or is there going to be 3 seperate orders: 1-TurboMinis 2-Mini16v 3-Miniforum?

yeah ill have one

i'm also interested, but can they ship to belgium? and at what cost?

Kyle will be buying all the kits and then posting them out.

In theory yes. I'll find out the cost for you.
