Hello all e30 zone people!

This is just a quick email to say that I now currently own Dom's old black 1.8is and will be posting some pictures soon.

I also have one quick question. I am trying to fix some sports pedals and the accelerator is proving to be a bit difficult, does anyone know how to dissconnct the hing on the pedal so I can get to the back of it easier to screw on the nut?!

Ill jump in with the pedal question.

Remove the metal E clip from the top, and pull the pedal and rod in oposite directions.

very easy.




And Welcome.

Welcome to the zone Nick - that's a nice car you have there, seen it in the metal a few times...

I managed to do my accelerator pedal without removing it, but it's ver fiddly... :mad:

the pedles a bitch

under the carpet at the bottom of the pedal it slots into a well ...slot
at the back theres a 2 big tags u need to push in and wiggle the pedal out

makes it easyer if you unclip the top and slide it off the top of the accerator hinge magig

should be able to do that with out breaking it ! i did!
