Lengthen gas pedal..?

I ran a couple searches but they've come up empty...

I was wondering if there was any way to lengthen the gas pedal or buy an attachment... I've been practicing my heel-toeing around town in my 6MT and I kinda have small feet (size 8.5, 9 on a good day) and it's a pain to blip the throttle with my foot on the break... I often times find myself awkwardly stretching my feet to reach the gas pedal; either that or I have to get really close to the edge of the brake pedal to where my foot can easily slip off with any bump on the road.. Has any other small-footed person run into problems like I am? Remedies? Share pllzz!!

I wish our pedals had a hinge on the floor. I also have this problem sometimes...

There are plenty of pedals that are made for heel toe shifting. Look into Sparco as well as numerous others. My personal favorite are the Mugen pedals but they would probably be odd on a g35

I really like the stock pedals that the coupes come with.. I wanna try to get someone as close to that as possible.. A lot of 3rd party pedals look too tacky or just plain ricey... Thanks for the info I'll look around =)

You can purchase a 380rs replacement gas pedal. It matches the OEM pedals well and is OEM nissan

Correct, I drove one and it took a little getting used to, but I'm sure it would be beneficial.
