re-wiring to keep vdc off

KPierson · 09-12-2009, 07:12 PM

It's been on the market for 5+ years, you should be able to find some reviews somewhere for it.

From a hardware perspective I can tell you that the input/output wire is current limited both directions, it is microcontroller based (running at 1.2mhz), has a full automotive grade power supply, is assembled on high quality, production grade circuit boards, utilizes genuine Molex wire harnesses, and comes enclosed in a high quality plastic enclosure. We don't use any cheap parts in manufacturing these things!

Also, one other thing to keep in mind, this isn't a simple "reverse" module that gives you no control over the system. This is an intelligent "memory" module - if you shut VDC off it keeps it off until YOU turn it back on, regardless of how many times you restart the car. Like wise, if you turn VDC on (for a rainy day or because the wife is driving the car), it will keep VDC on until you turn it back off.

I'm sure I could find reviews, but not on the 370. Is the idea that if they work well on one car, they should work well on all?

What's the warranty?

Thats a good point - to my knowledge no one with a 370Z has bought one of these.

I took a look at the service manual and the wiring is the same - the VDC button is a light green wire, the ground is a black wire (both at the VDC switch). The only other wire that needs to be connected is a switched ignition wire that can be found at the fuse box (a meter will be needed to find a circuit that can be used).

I also added a coupon code to the KPtech website - enter "370Z" when checking out to save 20% off your order price! This offer is valid until Sep. 27th, 2009! Hopefully this will allow some 370Z owners to purchase some products and write reviews about them!

Every module comes with a 30 day money back guarentee (minus shipping of course). The stated warranty period is one year from date of purchase, but to this date we've never denied warranty on anything with our name on it.

Great discount, I may take you up on that since there is a money back guarantee. Cheers mate
