I've sent e-mails to Perfect Pedal, AK Electrix, Leo Bodnar and PT Racing but have no answers from any of them. Are any of them still operating? They have BUY buttons, but I don't want to just throw money out into cyber space.

This is my wish list:
-PT Racing Extensions (so just 3 the same, no load cell)
-Perfect Pedal
-I'll do my own pedal box when all the parts arrive.

I was thinking of the Bodnar cable but then see that it is not compatible with the PS3... The AK was an alternative if the PP was not available.
 
Hi, I have a solution for you that will save you money and get quicker responses.

A. You can make your own pedal extensions from aluminum from Home Depot, I've done this and it works wonderfully and looks great. Total cost $5. I'll have pics up after the Fanatec embargo is over. All you need is a drill and patience.

B. Call Sim-Sport, and order the Perfect Pedal from thema and then for $39 order their custom G27 Pedal set aluminum mounts, which comes with a free Bodnar cable. This pedal set mount gets rid of the plastic housing and make the G27 pedals completely adjustable front to back and left to right. And its looks cool as hell. Just check out my VR3 custom thread for pics of it in action.

Sim-Sport is very fast in getting back to you and they are authorized perfect pedal retailers. Perfect pedal never responds to emails, EVER.
 
Thanks Mayaman!

I've left a message with Sim-Sport already!
 
Nice, you won't be disappointed, that pedal assembly for the G27 pedals from them is cheap and it looks bad ass. :)
 
Still waiting on a reply from Sim Sport. Is it normal to take a few days?
 
Have you tried calling them? They have a phone number on there web site. Might give that a try. They are very nice and helpful folks.
 
I left a message and sent an email. All I've heard is good stuff about them, but I just want to place my order. :)

Take my money, please!

I'll try again tomorrow.
 
Still haven't heard from Sim-Sport. If anybody knows them, please get them to contact me :)
I've left messages, tried again to call at different times of the day and left an email message. I'm away for racing this weekend and would have liked these parts in the mail already!

Not meaning to rant, just would like to place my order :) :) :)
 
I never contacted them, I just ordered and they contacted me within a day. LOL

I did call them after the fact though and they picked up the phone. Its possible they're out racing as its race season and they do race I believe. Keep trying, they're really nice.
 
Not sure if you've already made the purchase for the "perfect pedal" or not, but I'd like to throw out another option for you...

Direct Plug-n-Play for your Logitech G25/27 wheel from ECCI called the "Trackstar 6000"...when you include their "PBM" (Pressure Mapped - Brake - System)...it's a thing of beauty!

Had them for a few years and loved them!

Expensive...yes...but worth every penny..and if I still had them, I'd put my life on the line in any shootout vs any other 3rd party 'mod' that tries to duplicate real-world braking, such as the Perfect Pedal, ARC/GTEYE brake spring...

Plus, the fact that they're a direct replacement for the G25/27 pedals means it plugs directly into the wheel with no extra cable...and their support rocks!

Anyway, just wanted to throw this out as something else to consider! :D
 
I'm now seriously considering the ECCI pedals...

Still no word from Sim-Sport, I hope everything is OK down there!
 
Very strange indeed. I got a response in a day and had my pedals in around 4 days. Something isn't right. I'm guessing race season is to blame.

If you can, can you make a detailed instruction as well? I would love to extend the travel of my G27 pedals.
