Hey Dan,

Great little unit! Thanks for all the assistance you provided me when I had problems with the install.

Yoi helped out whever I had a questions.

Great product!

Kev

Here's a challenge....

And a question....

And a statement....

No particular order ;)

Firstly.... Is the second throttle body a simple on/off thing or is it variable allowing a 0 - 100% position?

Secondly, if the throttle body is a variable douvalacky, you could adjust the voltage going to it to allow a series of different throttle positions.

Thirdly, could you bend the signal that goes to that throttle body to allow a 'slowing' of the power delivery more so than a 'forehead meets steering wheel' stopping of power delivery.....

6-10% slip is the best for traction.........

Motec can do it.......

Yes it is variable, yes it can be fed a progressive voltage...but the killer is the fact the car shuts down 3 injectors. You'd need a way of preventing the car from doing this, it'd be a pain to get around as you'd need to disable whatever drops the voltage going to the inejctors...I think it's in the programming wizardry :S

So what you are telling me is that yes, you can do it.......

YAY!

Reckon you could make it cut spark instead?

You'll be waiting a while :) I think you're the only person who would be keen for it :D

hi guys. ive just upgraded to an r34 gtt from an r33 gts t, now lets talk serious stuff.. why is the traction control so strong on this model, i had my r33 going sideways without any issues and still had traction control working ?? i tried to throw the 34 into a corner ysterday and it droped power displaying SLIp????

Bloody hell Dan, I just bought new globes for my dash then I see you sig. lol. SO hard to find the right globes for the 34's!

haha Adz, they're not hard to find - you should have just asked me - I've had blue hi-intensity LED's in my dash for 2 years :ninja:

Had enough of the blue now... time to put a new Nismo 320km/h dash in :rofl:

hey i have a problem my tcs off, slip and engine light are always on.But i know that my tcs is on.Can this device

help me anyway?Due the fact that the tcs off light is on i cant turn the tcs off.Any help!

You may need to check your error codes and see what the issue is, so you're saying the TCS is still working even though it says Off????

This unit won't be able to help you as it relies on a functioning TCS and ABS system.

my stagea has a similar problem but without the engine light, just the TCS off and slip light come on when the car is turned on sometimes, it's done it maybe 15 times in 12 months,

it goes away if the car is turned off then back on.

im not worried

yep I would be keen for one of these as well .... would be significantly better if we could 'program' how much slip the TCS allows - like Bass said you actually only need around 10% - whereas I would think the oem TCS is around 50% when activated.

Also, another challenge for you - can you make up a similar module to the TCS thingo that makes the steering wheel gear controls 'On' by default when you start up, rather than off? I have no idea why they even invented such a switch - why the hell would you ever want it off? Even if you don't use the steering wheel controls then it still wouldn't hurt to have it come on every time you whack the gearknob into tiptronic mode. I assume you could do it by relay off of one of the wires to the switch in the centre console?

I did look at the unit for the Steering wheel, I got stumped by it using some bizzare logic to trigger, may need some time back at the ol' drawing board :laugh:

Hey, i just bought a R34 and the switch TCS switch does not turn off the TCS, do you have any idea why this is the case, it acts like a push button rather than a actual switch is this correct? i tried taking out the fuse and it worked but i was reading the forums and i think someone said it can stuff around with other systems, so i have put the fuse back in for the time being. Can you get back to me and let me know whats the go. Also do R34's come with a radio, i assumed they did but when i recieved the car and tried to tune in a radio station i could not get a signal, i previously had a 33 and there was an aerial but none on the 34, any ideas?

Thx

I got mine on Friday. Simple and quickly installed.

Works a treat. Start the car and BAM! TCS is off. No more fiddling for the switch as you approach interesting corners bends or taking off at the lights. I can finally sleep better knowing that the car isnt going to want to go limp on impulse.

:)

if only u could stop other things from going limp on impulse.....

oh yeah bump + 1 sold if u get it to do ignition cut instead of fuel cut!

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
