When I talked to GTM about buying this, it sounded like I literally just unplug and plug in the racelogic module, then wire the controller where ever I want it. They said I didn't need and sensors or anything for the wheels. I am driving a 2013 370Z Nismo. I would want the digital controller and launch control.
What do you think?
There are two different versions of the Racelogic kit. There is the OBD style kit where the wheel speed is pulled into the racelogic brain through the OBD bus. This works well but it does not allow for no lift shifts which is why I teamed up with James to try and get this analogue version of the system working. We spent months on this system before teaming up with a electronics design company that was able to make us the controllers needed to tap into the newer ABS system our cars have over the older cars that this system was initially designed for.

Hope this helps


Also for those on the fence, this system is awesome. The no lift shift (especially on boosted cars) is amazing, no need to blow off all that boost while making a shift anymore.

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!

Its not hard at all, the trickiest spot is getting to the abs wires on the front tires (and even then if you pull the wheel liners its a cakewalk).

You do need to cut the signal wire going to each abs sensor and put a "chip" in between it to send a signal wire back to the main processing chip. You can buy a main harness to go in between your ecu and body harness so that you do not need to cut any other wires on the car (which I strongly recommend).

There will be no install DIY since to the best of my knowledge James and myself are the only ones with this actual system on our cars.

OK.
does it come with instructions? Where I can get this harness, as I do not want to cut any ECU wires at all!!!!

Do yall know what a total price of everything would be?
Sounds like the main difference in this one and the one from GTM is you can no lift shift with this one and not with that one. Hopefully this one will be ALOT cheaper as well.... lol

This one does come with the digital adjuster and launch control correct?
