I've read lots of posts about the traction control for other drives with r34 - and they all talk about a switch under the steering wheel to control this.

When I got my car - I didn't have a switch there - and the alarm LED has since been put there.

Additionally, when turning on the car (and all lights in the dash light up) I dont have any 'TCS' or 'Slip' up the top as I've heard others mention - I had taken this to mean my car didn't have traction control and was satisfied with this. However! Whilst fitting my 0gauge cabling for the amps & stereo I noticed a fuse in the under-bonnet area for TCS - ripped this out - and the car turned into the one I bought - with copious wheel spin and power-slides and heaps of fun to boot.

But - this leaves some obvious questions!

Do I just have dead globes in the dash and the 4-door doesn't have a switch? :)

Have I been gypped by the importer and had a dodgy and had my dash replaced with one without traction-control lighting / switch? :D:domokun:

Any thoughts from folk is appreciated :(

Dont know whats goin on there but in my 34 4 door has TCS and the switch

Does yours light up when all the other lights do when you start the car?

Might be time I poke around behind the dash and see if they've chucked the switch in there or something ...

Hrmm - wonder if i can get a replacement switch or something if not ... grr, what a mess! :O

wouldnt suprise me if the dash was replaced with a non turbo dash with lower kms b4 it was put on the market in japan

Sounds like a thought, cause yes all 4 door turbos have the traction control as standard.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
