In the USA manual, it says these switches are underneath the steering wheel, but I can't find them. Can these things be turned off? Not a good time of year to have it switched off though. You might also just have a hole in the dash if the previous owner has pushed it through. Happens more often that you might think.
If its a JDM import then I believe some of these have a button near the heated seats button on the centre tunnel. Which on the dash, to the right of the steering wheel, below the level of the ignition. So only TCS can be turned off easily. Well, you can pull the plugs from under the bonnet, takes me about 5 seconds these days. My TCS switch import is down under the steering wheel by my right knee. Depends on where you put your knee. Sorry, I have nothing constructive to add to this thread.
What you are pressing doesnt stop the brakes firing on the front wheels when the car thinks its understeering. The only way to stop that is to pull the ABS fuse.
Stick me down for one then! Just seen and read all this. Good electronic skills sussing all this out and making it work! While I personally have no issue at all in pulling a fuse so easily accessed, I see the appeal of having a tidy control in the car to turn off these unwanted aids. Have a status light on the control to indicate if its active or not instead? Not having the dash lit up like a christmas tree on track would be nice and. Its intrusive on track and undesirable.
The Z's system cuts in very early and is a slow operator, you can brake far harder and later with it off. Could you make a control that includes abs control too? You can post now and register later. If you have an account, sign in now to post with your account.

Hi all, Our Z's have Traction control as standard, this can be temporarily disabled by pressing the TCS button under the steering wheel, but it comes back on again next time you start the car.

Keyser 5, Posted August 10, Posted August 10, Posted August 10, edited. Il confirm later and update the original post Edited August 10, by cs Daisyduke 53 Posted August 10, So guessing this mode won't allow for burnouts? Ekona 10, Posted August 10, OnlyAfro 63 Posted August 10, Maybe in the future, but not soon, i already have 3 electronics projects on the go, thats enough on my plate for now It will be somewhere around days until i have everything if the slow boat from china sails fast , but stick your name on the list and il hold you a module as long as youre sure.
Lets leave it at that for now , dont want to cause any heated discussions and i do actually want this thread to be aimed at selling these things Edited August 10, by cs Just now, cs said:. After all this discussion, i assume youre interested if ABS is confirmed as working?!? ABS brakes still function even when all other stability aids are disabled. Put me down for one. Posted August 11, Thanks guys! Couple of questions: 1 Is it possible to turn these aids off without having the light up on the dash?
It gave high lateral stiffness and a great sense of stability, but it was also tuned for low stiffness in the longitudinal mode, which contributed to ride comfort. This was done by separating the lateral and longitudinal road loads with a radius rod.
Engineers also placed a high priority on eliminating rear-wheel hop in the axle-windup mode, especially considering the Z's abundance of power. Separation of the springs from the shock absorbers resulted in 60 percent less friction in the residual moment, which means the suspension could react faster to road inputs.
And this configuration also provided for more luggage space because the wider shock-absorber span intruded less into the cargo area. To reduce unsprung weight, the rear axle housings upright , upper A-arms, and rear lower links were made of aluminum alloy. The rear suspension is carried in a rubber-isolated subframe, also made of aluminum alloy. As a result, the rear suspension of the Z weighed 20 percent less than the ZX's setup. Along with handling prowess, the Z's sporting mission demanded exceptional stopping power.
The base Z brakes were a power-assisted 4-wheel-disc arrangement with high friction-coefficient pads. The goals of this system included smoothness, linear performance, and easy controllability. Engineers aimed for a firm pedal feel that wasn't high-effort. For those who needed even more powerful brakes, an optional Brembo system was offered.
It featured the same large millimeter front caliper pistons and millimeter rears, as well as the millimeter front and millimeter rear rotors as those on the high-performance Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R. It was available only on the Track model, which also included inch forged-aluminum-alloy wheels and front and rear spoilers.
Electronic chassis enhancements are increasingly common on vehicles in all size and price categories, and the Z appropriately offered its share.
