should i or should i not remove

It's a cheap way of improving acceleration, both methods basically change the gearing making each gear seem like its shorter but unless you have your suspension set up correctly for your alloy size and good tyres - you could make the back end squirm with 150bhp tbh.

 

You can still install traction control, which is a good idea as the race logic from what i read is not the same as production in it's restriction and provides power deliverly the normal joe wouldn't be able to do by feathering the throttle.

how much are these then ?traction control

I would personally keep it, yes more to go wrong but Nissan didn't design it and put it there for no reason.

Sorry Spin Doctor - I haven't checked this thread for a few days so missed your earlier question.

 

The only way you can check whether you've got an aftermarket chip is to open up the ECU and physically see if it is a stock Nissan chip (which is soldered into the main PCB) or an aftermarket chip (which will be in some sort of a socket). You may get lucky and if it is an aftermarket chip it'll actually say who it is by - however, experience tells me the majority don't put lables on their chips so it could therefore be anyones.

 

We can supply you one of our performance chips (and also provide the ECU socketing service if required). Our chips are custom made to your exact specification based on what modifications you've made to the car. Prices are:

 

DTA Performance Chip only: £65.00 + £5.28 postage (insured, next day)

Socketing Service: £38.00 (includes return postage - 4 day turnaround)

DTA Performance ECU: £280.00 (includes ECU and pre-mounted chip - on exchange basis, refundable core of £130 required)

 

With regard to traction control - there are a number of options:

 

RLTC6A: traction control with analogue controller = £628.62

RLTC6AL: as above but with Launch Control = £699.12 ** manual cars only **

RLTC6DIA: as RLTC6AL with digital controller = £816.62

 

The above prices are EXCLUSIVE of fitting charges. We strongly recommend you get the system installed professionally. On average it takes upto 5~6 hours to do the job.

I am swapping my TT diff/subframe for a N/A one for the lower ratio and dumping the Hicas (obviously).

Have you done it yet? and how much?

Yes, sort of, I went away for a week and my son had it done for me as a suprise. But I had no sorted the prop shaft.

 

I have now though, just have to give the makers a measurement for them to make me a new single piece one.

 

So I guess it will be another week or so.

so is it much more quicker then did you nottice a hudge difference?

Bit hard to tell as I have not sorted the proshaft yet, LOL. Thats the bit thats send the drive to the axle. I wil post when its done. :-)
