are you "raising" the pedal? moving it closer to you?
I took a quick break from studying this morning and scrounged through my parts bin. I found a lightweight bolt with a huge opening that the factory bolt passes through (so any old washer would be fine, this was lighter than the equivalent stack of washers). It is in the 10-12 mm range, so I *need* to pick up a longer bolt since I only have about 3 threads engaged.
Result? Much more "natural" feel for my right foot, and the pedal is dead even with the brake pedal when the brake pedal is moderately engaged (read: Heel and toe is much easier). There is still plenty of clearance between the pedal and carpet (>15 mm), so I see no need to trim the pedal.
For reference, the stock bolts are 6 mm 1.0 x 25 mm. It looks like you can stack on 8mm worth of washers before running out of bolt... I'll pick up a 30mm next time I'm out for safety's sake.

Sorry... I put the spacer in the top, moving the pedal away from me about 35mm.

Did that to mine when I got the Cobalt pedals. Very nice mod.
Are there before and after pics for this mod? The pedals in the NC are definitely not to my liking.

Don't look...there's nothing down here for you!
I did it during a study break and forgot my phone, but I'll go shoot an after so you can compare the throttle pedal height. It takes less than 5 minutes... No parts are harmed.

photo sucks but you get what you pay for. You're welcome to sit in it if you're in the neighborhood.
