jamesmark Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Cruise was standard on UK spec(i think) and Jap GZ models, i am sure you can do it as i think Robsheffield is doing this at the moment, drop him a pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelfill Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Cruise control was a factory extra. Some cars have the looms fitted without the system, others have none of the electrics. I asked in the past and was told it was prohibitively expensive to retro fit. However, I'd be interested in *How* expensive, and what was involved. Edit: That post took my laptop 8 minutes to send Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I sold my full cruise control set to Rob Sheffield last year so if he is still working on it then its not an easy fit... My original RZ spec import did not have any of the wiring required, but other RZs have been reported as having it fitted. If Rob can post up his findings that might help.

JB was in his car 2 weeks ago and its still not done, i think he said it was a pain in the ass. Even if it is cruis is a lovely thing to have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Harwood Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 You can buy good quality aftermarket cruise control kits for about £150. Would be relatively easy to fit to a Supra too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 this issue is getting the cruise ECU to talk to the steering wheel controls and the clutch pedal and the actuator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 was there a bit missing from the kit I gave you? Might be worth posting up what the bit was so that anybody breaking a car can find it and also anybody buying a full cruise kit can make sure its there. I thought I had everything I needed in the kit, didnt actually have the wiring loom in the car so the project stopped dead. JB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Branners, there is a bit of the loom that goes from the steering wheel cowl (from the switch on wthe wheel) to the cruise ECU and then from there off to the actuator under the bonnet its called cowl number wire number 9 if memory serves. i have asked Jezzybabes about 5 times, but he rarely gets them in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
