I did not but i do believe James took some when he was doing his car. You'll have to see when he sees this.

Ok perfect.

Long as it comes with everything I would be in.
I just don't want to cut ecu wires at all. If I have to cut a few wires at each wheel, I can deal with that.

I would need to confirm with RL that the prices are still valid, but I do not see why they would not. Not only is it a few hundred cheaper, but you get the no lift shift as well.

Ok, how hard is this to put in on your own? Do you need to cut any wires? I am guessing I have to run a sensor to each wheel?

Do you know if there is a DIY for this?
Thanks for the help!

I had started on a DIY but stopped when I closed the GB. If this does start up again, I will finish it.

I think we pretty much have atleast 5 now.... where do we go from here?
If this is as simple and easy as yall say.... then I don't see how more people aren't all over this.......

I think if you do the DIY for this, it will get a lot more attention......

JMac88 01-17-2014 07:42 PM

I can see 3 people for sure:
Fireman3361
djtodd
TerribleONE
Still need a few more. I will get in touch with RL and the supplier for the sensors to make sure nothing has changed price wise. Keep in mind that all pricing will be based on the fact we get 5. I will also start working on the diy and post it up, hopefully by early next week.

I have uploaded a basic diagram to post 2. I will try and have more of a write up done sometime in the next few days. If you click on the picture it will take you to photobucket. There is a zoom button in the bottom right corner to see the text of the diagrams

fireman3361 01-19-2014 03:35 PM

I'm in. Can I get everything through you guys.... Harness and all?

Do you have a price if we get 5 ppl to buy this for everything?!?

I updated the 1st page with the following

Is there anything else that I may need for install?
You will need a few things:
-You will need a spool of wire, some buttconnectors, and crimpers.
-10k resistor
-L7805 regulator or a 12v to 5v converter. I have run the L7805 for years and it is a couple of bucks. you may have a 12v to 5v if you run aftermarket sensors.
-Its also recommended that you have a laptop for easy configuration, but is not required if you have the digital adjuster.
-Patch harness (http://www.wiringspecialties.com/vqse3ecupaha.html)

You'll notice i took out the uprev, as misfire detection has not been a problem.


If you absolutely want a harness made, we might be able to work something out. Keep in mind that I can not give you a 100% plug and play harness as some of the wires get long (the ones going from the wheelsensors back to the main sensor for instanace). You will still need to tap into certain wires as well.

As for pricing I still need to confirm nothing has changed. I would say if you budgeted $2100 that it would be more then enough. That's if you want the no lift shift, digital adjuster, ect... the full load deal.

I understand this. I don't mind tapping into those and running wires, I just don't want to cut any of my wires going to the ecu.....

Thats what the patch harness is for, no cutting of any ecu wires required :) I have the link in my post above

cool, I missed the link the first time around.
well not ordering anything from there till we have a for sure deal.
keep us posted

JMac88 01-20-2014 06:37 PM

updated post 2 with a written DIY. I wrote it all at once, so I may need to make some corrections/edits later, but should give you a general idea of what's required. We will see if there is enough interest for the last two kits with that, if there is I will rip the car apart and take corresponding pictures.

fireman3361 01-20-2014 07:04 PM

So who all is in on this......

JMac88 01-21-2014 09:25 AM

If anyone wants the canbus model I should be able to grab those as well. This would be for the AT guys or people that do not require the no lift shift. You would not need to tap any wheel speed sensors. My guess is around 1700(including all the small stuff) for everything with the canbus but need to confirm with RL

I don't see how tons of ppl are not jumping at this.....
I am not even boosted, I just hate my factory traction control....
and I plan on being boosted in the future lol

Prices are posted on first couple pages and I have a post in the last page or two where he tells the final price including digital controller, wiring harness, etc....

Think it's like 2100 total everything

With your build you are definitely gonna want this man! I hope to see your car at ZdayZ and go for a ride!

hjo1078 01-23-2014 08:46 PM

Dude i cant wait. And this traction control def sounds like it will keep me from killing myself in my car. Lol.

@fireman: i will def read this thread more thoroughly.

lol its all good
I was using my phone with crappy signal or I would have looked around and found it for you.
This thread does have a lot of usual info, but the majority of it is in the first two post and the one above..... cant wait for this!

hjo1078 01-24-2014 12:49 PM

so if we get the 5th person for the group buy, how long would it take for us to have these kits in our hands ? And also would this work for a 350z ?

We would be looking at a week or so to get the units from Racelogic. They will not do drop shipping so they will all come to me. This kind of works out as I can put the sensors in your box and ship the sensors and the Racelogic at once. Will probably take another week to get from me to you, so hopefully it would be a 2-3 week turn around time.

I know there are 350 guys that have used this kit. Their wheelspeed sensors are the older analogue type if I am not mistaken. This means they should be able to hook the kit up right to their wheelspeed sensors without the converters we need. With that being said, I would research it on my350 just to be sure. While I am confident about this, I can not guaranty it.

edit* this guy is running the system on his stock wss (350z)

He would most defiantly benefit from the GB. He just would not need the special converters we do. He is technically more ahead then we are lol. This is just going off what I read there. He would be responsible for finding the 350 fsm and tapping the right wires thought.

edit: i can see how you got confused. I need to come up with a different name for the sensors. I will change it to converters lol

JMac88 - I am very interested to know more about the custom chips you designed to interface between the Nissan ABS sensors and the RLTC ECU. I sent you a PM with some questions. Hopefully I can buy a set from you so I can install my current RTLC on my new car.

Anyone on the fence about RLTC, it is awesome! It makes driving a higher powered car so much more enjoyable/controllable. Yes it is expensive, but it was the best single item I ever purchased for my M3.

hey keith if you jump in on this that makes 5 peope in for the custom chipset :tiphat:
