Supposedly it leaves basic ABS working fine (since it doesn't light up any brake/ABS lights on the dash), but it's hard for me to independently confirm that - something about my brake hardware/pad setup (or my mis-wired brain that refuses to let me try to flatspot tires?) makes it very hard for me to trigger and/or feel ABS on my car in the first place.

Not mine. VDC off turns on the VDC light. I can do a burn out, drift, etc in a parking lot or around a corner. No idea about high speed corner exit type things though.

Yaw off is the exact same. It turns on the TCS light only. I can drift, burn out etc.

To me so far both do the same thing and both off the same time feels no different.

So let me get this straight. You can do a standing burnout with your foot on the brake. Something makes me think you cant.

I will donate half my right teste if it helps ....

on the motec expect it e 8k and the harness is another 1.5k

Too true, Motec is not cheap.

1slow370 · 01-16-2014, 10:04 PM

the correct word is overpriced

1slow370 · 01-16-2014, 10:08 PM

also that is a realistic price too the gtr plugin is 7580 plus harness

turbo kit money for an ecu

Where the hell did you get that from? Point out to me where those words were written by me.

He got it from you saying "I can do a burnout" with just the vdc off, when what you meant was "I can spin my tires". To most a burnout is full on sit and spin action.

I don't drag race, but I am trying to learn to left-foot-brake to ease my brake/throttle transitions. The downside is no ABS to protect me from flat-spotting tires, but the upside would be not having the throttle limiter interfering just because I still have some light left-foot pressure on the brake pedal.

I don't think it should be too bad. You should get the hang of it without locking up too much. I've driven my Honda Fit with no ABS for over 3 years and now I feel awkward braking hard with ABS, not used to being able to just slam on it and let the ABS do the work lol

Yeah, don't see standing or brake.

Mitco39 · 01-17-2014, 03:37 PM

Google burn out and see what pops up.

K, what now?

If I google standing burn out I'll find a standing, but guess what? I didn't say standing did I?
