VDC OFF is for sissies. Real men pull the ABS fuse for complete removal of TCS nannies.

i have my yaw sensor unplugged and still feel it . ill try the abs fuse next

I drive with VDC on for the most part. Mainly because I truly dont remember to turn it off as I dont have much of a reason to when driving M-F. Now weekends I like to get a little risky

. However I do wish our VDC button would disable both the VDC as well as the ABS instead of having to pull the fuse. (even though it only takes a minute to do so, the convenience would be nice lol) I mean my 04' 325ci was able to do so though but you did have to hold the TCS button for like 10 seconds, then it would light up on the dash that both were off. it would slide like no tomorrow and with ease. TBH the power on the Z scares me a bit, after a few spin outs and fish tailing playing on the back roads I realized the power difference. so i havent been as daring with it yet as i would like..Real men get scared still right??

with the yawn sensor unplugged i dont have to push the vdc off button but like i said i can still feel it doing something

XiP · 06-07-2013, 09:54 AM

I didn't even know my car had vdc or what it does or where to turn it on and off

kenchan · 06-07-2013, 10:02 AM

yah, while throttle off the car does do things on its own to correct yaw.

your G probably does that more than your Z.

Brutal 370Z · 06-07-2013, 10:06 AM

The only time I turn it off is when I need to launch hard from a standstill. That's when it's the most restrictive I find.

kenchan · 06-07-2013, 10:07 AM

that and when taking a turn on bumpy roads

yep, it sucksarse when the car does this to me too. but i have to say my Z's VDC is much better adapted to the car vs my G's VDC for sure.

another reason why ive not messed with the suspension on my Z other than the front swaybar.
