Romeo53 Posted October 27, 2021 Report Posted October 27, 2021 i have jzx100 chaser and want to buy this ecu . is it correctly work with stock TRC systems? Quote
Adamw Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 Sorry for the slow reply. My understanding is the TRC wont work and the light may come on under some conditions. Quote
Romeo53 Posted October 30, 2021 Author Report Posted October 30, 2021 what should i do to implement this system? I have already ordered a plug in ECU Quote
0x33 Posted October 30, 2021 Report Posted October 30, 2021 You will need to wire in a minimum of one front wheel speed sensor and one rear wheel speed sensor in order to setup G4X traction control. You can splice into the positive speed signals via the ABS ECU. Quote
Romeo53 Posted October 30, 2021 Author Report Posted October 30, 2021 on apexi pfc everything works, I build a car for every day, not for competitions. and I don’t want to caress the gas pedal on my daily commute. I was looking for a replacement for the ecu because no one undertakes to configure the apexi, but a working trc was an important criterion for me. the device is not cheap and I thought if it was plug in then everything would work like on apexi. make interconnection with abs system, it will be fine and the car was built not as cramps, but as aesthetically accurate, where all the lights and buttons should work. had to buy a new bmw?

Romeo53 Posted October 30, 2021 Author Report Posted October 30, 2021 how much does it cost to make the standard trc system work? Quote
Adamw Posted October 31, 2021 Report Posted October 31, 2021 I dont know much about the system and can find little info about it so the chances of us being able to make it work is slim. Quote
Romeo53 Posted October 31, 2021 Author Report Posted October 31, 2021 I found a diagram of the interaction of TRC systems with ECU can it help Quote
Adamw Posted October 31, 2021 Report Posted October 31, 2021 Our JZX ecu doesnt have any of these pins connected so TRC unlikely will ever work. Quote
bsh Posted November 1, 2021 Report Posted November 1, 2021 I also installed this ecu recently, and I think it would be a good idea to make a note in "ecu details" and "known issues" that factory traction control wont work. You can save customers/tuners for a lot of hassle letting them know this before buying the ecu. Quote

Adamw Posted November 1, 2021 Report Posted November 1, 2021 Talk to your dealer, link have a returns policy, provided the antistatic bag has not been opened the dealer can return the ecu for a refund. Quote
0x33 Posted November 1, 2021 Report Posted November 1, 2021 Guys its not hard, its three wires. Just splice FR+ and RL+ from ABS ecu into spare DI input on Link. Also put CSW to a spare DI so you can activate/deactive TC via factory switch. My opinion is that factory TC system is very intrusive and oldschool using throttle blade lol. Very easy to make Snow mode come on and loose all power in a less than oppertune moment. Link TC is much nicer as its just an ignition retard or fuel/ign cut to keep you straight. TC will never work P&P on most 90's toyota's, as the ABS and TRAC ecu is typically seperate from main ECU. This will be the same for any standalone out on the market. I can't comment on powerfc working with TC as I dont live in 1995 anymore and use such old electronics. Quote

Factory TC works with the standard ABS system brakes the skid wheel. it is much more efficient to work with each wheel than ignition retard. I am ready to abandon the standard ETCS for the sake of Link ECU, but with abs link does not work Quote
