When upgrading a vehicle to a modern electronic throttle body, finding a drive-by-wire pedal that actually fits can be a challenge. Over the years, we’ve tested countless setups, and this universal drive-by-wire pedal has proven to be one of the most adaptable and reliable options available.

It’s been used successfully across Nissan, Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Infiniti, and many other platforms - making it an easy choice for builders who just want something that works.

Why We Recommend It

This pedal isn’t a gimmicky “universal” part that sort of fits everything but then is difficult to get that last 20% to replicate the factory feel. It’s a strong, all-metal unit that can be easily adapted to different chassis using simple bracket or bolt pattern adjustments.

We’ve installed and supplied hundreds of these pedals, and they’ve consistently delivered the right pedal feel, throttle response, and reliability that builders expect.

Key Features

Flexible Mounting

The folded sheet-metal backing plate bolts directly to your chassis or firewall. It can be re-drilled, spaced, or used with an adapter bracket to suit different bolt-hole layouts - including direct compatibility with many Nissan firewall patterns.

All-Metal Construction

The solid steel pedal rod can be shortened, extended, or repositioned by trimming and re-welding - allowing precise placement of your original pedal pad. Perfect for custom builds or conversions where positioning and factory feel is crucial.

Reliable OEM-Grade Sensor

Each unit includes an AISIN position sensor, a genuine Japanese OEM component used in many factory drive-by-wire systems. It’s accurate, dependable, and proven over years of real-world use.

Adaptable Fitment

The standard bolt-hole spacing is 40 mm centre-to-centre - check your firewall or bracket pattern, and adapt if needed.

Test Fit Before You Buy

We offer a free downloadable 3D model of the pedal assembly so you can print it and check fitment on your firewall before ordering.

It’s an easy way to confirm spacing, angle, and comfort position.

Workshop Proven

This universal pedal has been used and trusted by workshops across New Zealand and overseas. It’s simple, reliable, and gives consistent performance - whether it’s going into a daily-driven street car or a full custom build.

“I would 100 % recommend this product to anyone doing a drive-by-wire conversion in just about anything. It’s easy to install and adapt to other chassis.”
