    I'm saving for a gartrac one ATM due to the issues I've heard other folk having, I'd rather bolt it in bleed it and get the bias set up with minimal messing around

    I would not rate rally design stuff for hard competition use, I had one of their pedal boxes and it was flexing under heavy breaking in the dry and their steering arms bend far easier then genuine ones.

    Hi

    I have Rix Engineering ones in stock if you are interested, excellent quality using original pedal as part of the conversion. Also only use genuine Girling Master Cylinders.

    Here is what I am using, cost £160 delivered






    I was going to buy an obp but got a hell of a slating on facebook when I posted a few pics asking peoples opinions, found a fella who makes these boxes himself for kitcars. The quality is very good and for the price I thought it is defo worth a punt.

    Any chance you have a contact number or email for the guy that makes them as I could do with getting some components off him so I can make a custom one for my Chevette?

    Could you post or message contact details for the floor mounted pedal box, we're looking for one for a space framed race car & it looks very much like what we need.

    Does it come with bias bar & cylinders ?

    Thanks
