ah! as I thought...
it's not a forth pedal. It is infact just a foot rest for when you're not using the clutch

Is it just me or is the footrest very close to the clutch which makes it quite hard to use? Well it does on my MY00 Turbo with standard pedal and size 10 feet.

Simon, I think the pedal is designed for the typical Jap driver, a size 10 foot will be out of luck. At around size 8, you already need tight fitting shoes to clear the clutch pedal.
