Installing the Miata pedals in the Exocet chassis
The Exomotive Exocet maintains the relationship between the pedals and steering column on the US cars. Your clutch assembly should go in first with your clutch master cylinder. Some aftermarket clutch lines might interfere with a nearby 1” round tube, so be warned. Exomotive sells a low profile stainless steel “straight shot” clutch line in the online store that features a banjo style fitting to give maximum clearance for the tube. This clutch line is also included in the stainless steel brake and clutch line kit. The stock hardline can be bent around it.
Next, insert the brake booster from the engine side through the four holes and bolt the pedal assembly from the interior side. Use the same nuts that came from the Miata. If your brake master cylinder was not already installed on your booster, bolt on your brake master cylinder. Be careful that no brake fluid drops onto your frame. Painters tape makes a good temporary barrier.
Your kit comes with three aluminum spacers 1.25” long and a corresponding set of bolts and washers that fit in their threads. These will stiffen up the pedals. These spacers go:
Between the throttle pedal assembly and the firewall. You can drill a hole in the firewall if desired.
The odd shaped brace above the pedals has holes above the brake and clutch pedal assemblies. You should be able to wedge those spacers under that brace and connect the assembly through the assembly’s slot.
