BMW E36 Group A DTM Gas Pedal - 35411158855 

Overview

Garagistic E36 DTM-Style Gas Pedal – Group A Heritage, Modern CNC Precision

Born from motorsport pedigree and reborn for the modern driver, the Garagistic E36 DTM Gas Pedal is a faithful recreation of the original BMW Motorsport E30 M3 Group A/DTM throttle pedal and now redesigned with modern manufacturing techniques and refined for today’s street and track enthusiasts. E36 factory plastic pedals are known to break. Upgrade once, and upgrade for good. 

Features

• Authentic DTM Design: Reverse-engineered directly from an original BMW Group A pedal used in the legendary E30 M3 race cars.
• CNC-Precision Modernization: Machined out of solid 6061 billet aluminum, this pedal improves on the original stamped metal design. We’ve enhanced the design by eliminating the slop in the lower hinge, adding bronze bushings for smooth, consistent pedal feel and long-term durability.
• Precise Actuation: Precise, responsive motion with no flex. Just clean, sharp throttle control.
• Install: Takes 20 minutes to install and is fully reversible
• Flexible Mounting: Fits the stock pedal bracket, or pair it with our optional lower bracket for a custom setup (alternate mounting requires drilling into the chassis).

Fitment

• Replaces OEM PN 35411158855
• Fits All E36 Models (Coupe, Sedan, M3)
  
• Does Not Fit Drive by wire cars without serious modifications

This product pairs well with our E36 M3 Evo Dead Pedal, found here !

Installation

• Step 1: Remove the Factory Pedal
  • Remove the circlip at the top of the pedal.
  • Using a flathead screwdriver or pick tool, release the clips at the bottom of the plastic pedal to free it from the lower metal bracket welded to the car.
• Bracket styles:
  
  • For the E36, use the male bracket (pedal fits over it).
  • Your new billet DTM pedal works with both bracket types. If your factory bracket is worn, rusted, or torn out, we also provide an optional billet replacement bracket that can be bolted in place of the original. The billet replacement bracket will also allow you to angle the pedal to your desired position.
• Step 2: Install the Angled Base Plate
  • The E36 gas pedal attaches at an angle. Using our supplied angled mounting base, you can angle the pedal to face you. The linkage bracket at the top of the pedal is angled the opposite way. These two parts mimic the twist in the factory E36 pedal.
• OPTIONAL Step 2: Install the Universal Base Bracket
  • This base bracket can be used for custom setups which require repositioning the gas pedal from the OEM location
  • Installing the billet bracket is straightforward but may require slight fine-tuning. Position the bracket where you want the new pedal to pivot from, drill into your floor and bolt the bracket down.
    
• Step 3: Assemble the Pedal & Linkage
  • Attach the linkage to the billet pedal using the two supplied button-head screws. The angled bracket is slotted to allow you to move it left and right on the pedal.
    • Note: Make sure to check the linkage moves freely without binding before driving! Adjust the side to side position as needed so the linkage moves freely.
  • Tip: Apply medium thread locker for security.p
  • Slide the linkage onto the factory accelerator rod and secure it with the retaining clip.
  • Insert the bottom mount of the pedal into the factory bracket.
  • Using the stainless steel mounting plate and supplied screws, bolt down the lower connection point.
• Step 4: Final Adjustment & Safety Check
  • Slowly depress the pedal to full throttle (WOT).
  • Verify that pedal travel does not exceed the mechanical stop of the throttle cable.
  • IMPORTANT! If travel exceeds the stop, install a pedal stop to prevent stretching or damaging the cable.
  • Install a pedal stop in the factory M8x1.25 threaded hole to prevent overstretching the throttle cable. (The billet pedal allows more travel than stock.)
