Default Question on pedals of an EM2

Hey I'm a new comer here and I hope my questions haven't been asked before or violates any rules or anything.


Anyways.... I have a 03 lx and I've noticed the gas pedal is a lot further back than the brake pedal so doing the heal and toe would be a challenge. Do any of you notice this too? Or is this normal?.....

If so is there a way I can fix it? Just getting pedal covers would make both pedals thicker and wouldn't really help the problem or would it?

Oh and a side question, are there any spoon sports that will fit an EM2? Just out of curiosity because everywhere I look it only fits stuff like EK9 and EP3s and stuff.

Dont worry about it man, they are all like that, plus our cars arent fast enough that we would get in a situation do the "heal" toe

I see.

So if there is a situation where we have to use it, getting pedal covers is all I can do right?

Oh but what about these?

its just sonething you have to get used to, i dont have any BAD issues heal-toeing this car, but i hade alot easyer ones. As far as spoon sports stuff, it depends on what you want, some stuff is universal kinda, what is it you are looking for? then find out if that part or an equivalent ep3 or rsx part can be made to use on the 7th gen civ, good luck.

Oh, well yeah that's what I wanted to find out, if people get used to the deeper gas pedal for heal-toeing or if they do something to change it.


For the spoon sports stuff, I'm mostly interested in the exhaust, other than that I'd like to know if there are stuff like brake calipers or pads that fits an EM2. How can I find out if those kinda parts will fit the EM2 if it fits on ep3 or something?

Oh and even a more minor question: Spoon brake calipers sells for I think $1.6k. Does that come in a set of 4? 1 for each wheel. Or do they sell individually so it's like 1.6k x 4? That'd cost way more than my imagination lol

The calipers are sold in pairs for roughly $1400 - $1600.

Just practice it.... its pretty easy to get the hang of. Put the ball of your foot on the right edge of the brake and kick your heel over.
