When using OE Lexus Flappy-Paddles, use these (mono-directional) ground switching circuits to trigger relays for 12v SupraStick manualised gear-change feeds.

For Supra installation, using the above interface relay system, the redundant Manu button can be linked to wire 2, Auto/Manual switching and the O.D. button linked to wire 20, Shift-Table selection.

 

Which provides OE switch-function & dash-information display-lights for Manual/Auto & Race/Eco shift-options. :cool:

Solenoid no. 1. loom-wire is cut and bridged with wires 4 & 13, solenoid no. 2. loom-wire is cut and bridged with wires 5 & 14, lock-solenoid loom-wire is cut and transmission-tail connected to wire 15.

 

Wire no. 8. can be piggy-backed onto transmission speed-sensor (16ish-blips per wheel-rev) or alternatively, if you have, for a better signal link to an ABS sensor? (96-blips per wheel-rev)

 

:think: That only leaves wire 3. to Ignition +, wire 1. to Ground - and three little piggies to back onto ECU loom-wires. ;)

 

Wire no. 9, TPS. Wire no. 11, RPM. Wire no. 12, Brake Signal.

The only loom cuts are the 3 solenoid wires, all other joints are piggybacked.

SupraStick was designed when Window 98 was about and interfaced using Hyper Terminal software and a serial port. To communicate with SupraStick using modern hardware and software and USB to serial lead will be needed.

 

An alternative to Hyper Terminal is a program called PuTTY.

http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

 

A little configuration of the COM port will be needed (mine happens to be COM5 but it can be any available port). The best settings are:

- Baud rate: 19200

- Flow control: None

- Default everything else

When PuTTY is installed, set a few serial settings to match that of your COM port.

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=218492&d=1493245307

 

Update the serial port section.

:hi: Thank you Mike.

 

 

(Please note: Vehicle Settings shown in Mike's pic and again below, are for 1UZ-FE VVT-i with; cam-sensor rpm signal - 3.769 diff - 18" wheels - 265 35 tyres - ABS speed-signal.)

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=218498&d=1493245372

 

 

 

Settings for 1J & 2J non VVT-i install using crank-sensor & transmission no. 2 speed-sensor.

 

1. = 12. (Crank-sensor)

2. = 4. (Transmission no. 2 speed-sensor)

3. = 41 or 38? Diff ratio. http://mkiv.supras.org.nz/specs.htm

4. = Diameter of tyre. https://tiresize.com/tyre-size-calculator/

5. = 2800. (Baseline - can be adjusted to suit)

6. = Bespoke. (How-To explained in PDF)

7. = Bespoke. (How-To explained in PDF)

jagman, reports that he also prefers puTTy to Hyperterminal. :slap: and has provided pics with a few words of his Soarer 1JZA80-GTE Installation.

 

 

Before

Showing the rear of the clock-spring - note 6 tracks - but only 4 used on soarer - these are cut (3) and used to provide up /down/ and earth , new wires fed to here from supra stick , and the old cut wires are used for the cruise control buttons. The 4th wire is for the horn and remains untouched.

This many wires

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=209833&d=1457199560

 

 

 

Note two relays used for paddles - centre of pic between syvecs and stick - note fused supply in centre below syvecs - relays /switches/stick/ all fused separately - suprastick has no fused supply supplied.

 

Eventually it all fits here

Mapping Suprastick has always been a PITA because the software kept dropping out every few minutes.

 

The problem would appear to be that Suprastick doesn't like serial to USB adaptors.

 

I have now bought an old Windows 98 laptop with a serial port and used this to map Delboy52 Mike's Suprasticked Supra with no issues whatsoever, if anyone needs it, just ask.
