    Brake and clutch mods for RHD

    Speed Freak posted an issue with a European import car which had a different pedal box to those pictured in the manual. Well - all RHD donor's have the same looking individual brake and clutch pedals. Maybe this is a JDM issue - as all our Australasian cars are JDM.
    1. As pictured - we need to separate the front half of brake pedal assembly from rear mounting bracket!
    2. Front half will mount to firewall correctly
    3. Need to manufacture a new rear bracket to support to dash frame - must do this to offer suficient support to pedal assembly!
    4. Need to trim the LH side that supports the brake light switch. IMO the RH side is enough for the switch to be supported and work effectively.
    5. Need to trim a small section from side of pedal assembly. This is interferring with the steering column and without a light trim the column will not fit past the brake pedal.
    6. As shown in pictures - all fits well including new support bracket. I'm waiting on Rori's steering column bracket before final install.
    7. Final issue is the FFR supplied rod - connecting the pedal to the master cylinder is about 30mm too short for RHD. I'll locally source one to make it fit.
