Pretty cool write-up on adjusting the brake pedal height. Made a big difference for me when working on heel-toe. Thought I would share:

Indeed, I also used this when installing my torsion bars:

Some of the aftermarket pedal replacements are also a good aid in my opinion.
Be interesting to know the % of people who do and don't heel-toe on downshifts?

Stuck at step one:
"Obtain two open end wrenches a 16 mm and a 17 mm wrench"
My 16mm wrench has a 17mm at the opposite end.![Confused](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)
Tried it but my size 13's sort of get in the way.

Adjusting/modifying your pedals however needed is all part of changing your car's generic ergonomics to be perfect for YOU.
Any track driven car should be carefully fitted to the driver, including the steering wheel size/style/position, the seat/seating position, belts, Hans, pedals, shifter, instruments, etc.
Anything that doesn't fit you perfectly is hurting your driving performance.
