Adjusting position of brake pedal - Possible?

Is it possible to adjust the resting postion to the brake pedal in a T3?

My brake pedal sits a fair bit higher than the accelerator (no clutch as it's an Auto) meaning a fairly large step of the gas to apply the brake.

Can I adjust the height of the pedal (without affecting operation/brake application) to something more 'reasonable'?

Where does eveyone else's pedals sit in ralation to eachother?

Thanks

it's not adjustable the clutch and brake pedals do sit higher than the accelerator you do have to lift off the accelerator and up onto the brake, they aren't race cars, no heel and toeing possible unless you wear big boots

I've had a few cars like this in the past. I think it's a really bad design fault since in an emergency, you can easily catch the side of your foot on the brake pedal as you transition across instead of being able to quickly get to the pedal to push it.

Would probably be easier to move the accelerator pedal up than to move the brake pedal down.

Wasn't Ian working on some mod regarding the pedals?

Exactly spherehopper, it's the 'emergency' element I was thinking of...
Ah well, was worth asking - I'd assumed mine was just adjust wrongly :(
