Vette pedals? That's about as manly as it gets lol
factory IS300 clutch pedal assembly & brake pedal that goes with the manual set-up. these cars are very rare to find in standard, even harder finding parts. i've been sending emails to every wrecked standard trans IS300 on ebay for weeks. i finally found someone selling a motor & trans from a manual & he happened to have the pedal assembly too.
Wow good find on that, those pedals look oddly enough like my vette pedals, that's gonna be a fun torque monster when you get through keep us updated !! For reference here's a set of vette pedals lol

i thought about going with some f-body pedals ,they're a lot easier to find & are pretty cheep, but i figured the factory lexus pedal should be easier to mount. all the provisions should be there, at least i'm hoping they are, LOL!!! i know the clutch master cylinder provisions are there.
motor mount adapter plates tacked together.
