No, but you do have the same part (dashboard) as cars that do have TC and you have the same globe test wiring as everyone else. The lights all light up, not under the control of their various ECUs, but by a simple circuit that puts power on all of them with the ignition on and nothing else running. It's so you can see if the globe is working or not.

By TC light you mean "slip" light I'm thinking?

GTSBoy is correct, it's there so that Nissan could unify dashboard diagnostic and indication circuitry. It's meaning as an indicator is different depending on model though - on GT-t's it blinks when traction control kicks in, on GT Fours it blinks when TCU detects inequality of wheel speeds and engages ATTESA.

Your cluster was probably replaced with one from a car that had traction control. From factory the bulbs would be removed if the car didn't have TC.

this makes sense but im almost certain it hasn't been changed, previous owner possibly replaced leds in the dash and added that one back in again

and not its not the slip light as i have that also

but yeah i was just curious as to why it would be there still if there is no TC on all N/A models which have a different cluster with out the turbo made up for them anyway youd think they'd take the TC light out too

You can switch it off and unplug it but of you still rip the hand brake hard and flick it right out it will still come. Find the fuse and pull it out but light mite Tay on

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
