Manual swap pedal box writeup.
PROTOTYPE
If you’re asking why would you spend a bunch on this vs modifying a wrx or other subaru pedal box? Well here’s a few reasons you may or may not know:
-Wrx/other subie pedals put them all closer to the gas pedal crowding that
-Wrx/other subie pedals are closer to the floor
-Wrx/other subie pedals require modifying the gas pedal to clear the crossover arm from the clutch.
-Wrx/other subie pedals require some sort of extension to meet the upper 2 mount points of the pedal box or omission of the mount point.
-Wrx/other subie pedals require a pass through the firewall for the studs to mount the clutch master cylinder and rod.
The main advantages to this setup:
-adjustable pedal ratio between ~4.5 and ~6.5
-pedal and parts are bolt on (with the exception of the cutting down the stock brake pedal)
-master cylinder size selection
Parts list required:
-Wilwood master cylinder, standard Subaru is 0.7x so a 0.75” one would be a good baseline
280-12384 0.625”,
280-12385 0.75”,
280-12386 0.8125”,
280-12387 0.875”,
280-12390 0.9375”,
280-12388 1”
-Volvo clutch return spring
