Pretty sure there are still some nannies on that you have to overcome even with VDC off. ABLS for example applies the rear brakes when the car detects slip - you cannot turn this off without pulling the STOP LAMP fuse or installing an inline switch for the yaw sensor.

That is probably my problem then, i did read there was a fuse i might have to pull or bypass but i was trying to avoid that lol..is it easy to install a switch for that? I would really really hate to pull my fuse just to do a simple burnout

Search is your friend. Disabling the yaw sensor has been discussed in detail already.

May not be able to handle it w/the yaw dis-connected; as it does way more than allow burnouts.

N/370Z 02-12-2017 09:35 AM

Thinking on trying to just hook up a on/off switch to my stop lamp fuse...try that first and go from there...this wont be somthing i do all the time either tho so i just want a simple solution to do it on the go..now that ive read it i think disabling the yaw sensor is more than i wanna do atm, but ill consider it

Yup thats how my rear tires look right now on the inners lol...can i adjust the camber or anything? Never messed with cambers before

jchammond 02-12-2017 12:25 PM

You can;but as you go + on camber/will also go + on toe...gotta get some rear component's to get a better handle on the adjustment's. limited with the eccentric's

Be careful...positive toe is good on the street; don't let anyone set the rear toe to "0"
Here's mine w/base wheels-0.8*F & closer to 0* on Rhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8ff1c11a49.jpg

Those are camber number's...about .125"F toe & .250"R

Why? It's literally at your feet in the driver footwell and takes no time at all. Just don't pull it when you're on public roads because it disables your brake lights. Which shouldn't be an issue because you shouldn't be doing burnouts on public roads anyway.

FPenvy 02-13-2017 07:34 AM

I don't know why you guys all have problems I get mine to light up the tires no fuse pulled not trucks just vdc off. I mean if you're trying to do a standing long burn out then yes the fuse has to go.

Yes this is for the "standstill burnouts" lol...i can get the tires to spin when im moving and stuff but from a stand still i cant get anything...i can literally get more tire spin from a standstill with vdc on rather than it being off

Switch is easier to turn off and on and i dont want to lean down and pull it out everytime when i can just flip a switch

Just kidding.

OEM Camber?
 
I don't understand why the rear wheels are set up that way. Sure waste a lot of tire tread. Please enlighten me????

Gotta learn to tune your own suspension; all an alignment tech is gonna do is put it within oem specs.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b292128a57.jpg

In case I just happened to miss it? I drag race and when you are at the tree and foot on brake try to rev, the engine will not at all rev. Without saying this was posted somewhere else already,

Can you tell me if there is a easy way to disable the rev limit with Brakes on and A7 automatic tranny.

Jsolo 06-24-2017 06:59 PM

^^Disconnect the brake light switch maybe? That may fool the computer into thinking the brakes are disengaged and prevent the throttle interlock from limiting revs. You do however realize this is a safety feature for those that might apply the brake and throttle at the same time. Brakes take priority.

jchammond 06-24-2017 07:09 PM

Mine has no problems; even w/345'shttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...199be14654.jpg

When you are at the tree at a drag strip you want to raise the revs while not spinning the tires. That is the idea.

Perhaps it is only on the newer cars or on non sport models? My 2014 Roadster 7at refuses to power brake. Cuts rpm immediately when you hit the brake. And I've power braked my fair share of cars so it's not me lol

pull the brake light fuse.


when the brake is applied it tells the ECU to cut throttle hence no power braking.

pull the fuse, no signal that brakes are being applied, and you get 100% throttle thus ending in a burnout.
