Wet shoes rubber/aluminum pedals....bad news!
I've been aware of this issue on my last three cars so what I do is install
pedals that are designed to eliminate this issue. Pedals that would hurt
your feet if you were barefooted. The set on my G35 are made by RAZO
as were my last set.

the first few weeks i drove a manual (which was my G) this happened to me.... then i realized the way i was holding my foot to operate the clutch wasnt the most efficient.... what i was doing was leaving my heel MOSTLY on the floor and pivoting my ankle to operate the clutch.... when it rained my foot slipped like crazy
then after a few weeks, i realized that moving my ankle less, and moving my entire leg to operate the clutch was a better technique..... with this change, i no longer experienced the wet foot slippage on the pedal

lol.... old topic and im sure you've probably already fixed the problem, but I have to agree with G35fromPA... The best solution would be to get some aftermarket pedals with more grip. I have the same problem on my G but thats cause pretty much the whole pedal is metal and really has nothing to grip on to when your feet r wet. Get some with more Rubber. Quite a few companies out there make pedals.
