Lucas Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Just been speaking to a Garage about doing my BPU's and the guy said I should serious think about getting the Race Logic Traction Control as the one that Supra comes with is not great. Anyone got this fitted or knows about these and if they are any good or worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Its raved about and really does inprove the car loads and yes the stock system is really poor. Searching will bring up loads of info. Good garage advice id stick to using them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kslb Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I am getting it fitted at the moment so if you don't hear anything will let you knoe when I get it back. The standard TC is fairly pants it must be said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz1 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 i have it always i always turn it off when its dry:d but i make sure its on when its wet;) is it worth it yes i would say;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted May 1, 2007 Author Share Posted May 1, 2007 Been having a good read of the websites and stuff and does sound like a good system. Its around £700 with Launch Control and Digi Unit and 3 hours of fitting so must be looking at 1k for this. That sound about right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Its really good in the wet, I used to turn off the Toyota TC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if you shop around. I got mine very cheap on a group buy on this site and fitted it myself. Cost less than 500 then. It's very good in the wet, it didn't stop me enthusiastically losing the back end this morning though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 for me it's been the best mod so far, along with bpu itself before, at bpu even on a cold day (not wet) the car could be a bit unpredictable as turbo #2 comes on, the sudden boost in power could spin up the back and make you dangerously close to losing control even in 3rd and 4th gears!

Oh dear god dont tell me that. I have just booked my car in to have the full BPU's. Cant really afford the RLTC at the moment. Sounds like I have some interesting times ahead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Mixed opinions personally, yes it is a great mod but does come with its own glitches I'm not going to go into detail about. Worth it - if you have the money of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanM Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 There has never been so little rain here as since I got my RLTC, and apart from anything else I like the sound of it cutting in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried the launch yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Yea, was having a wee practice (just in case I ever showed off in public), overall I am well impressed. Getting a bit nearer the single conversion as well so trying to get used to the TC and launch control before that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob wild Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 IMO its mixed, i have been out in soop's with it fitted and it was great! Really impressive piece of kit! Hence me buying one :)Unfortunately my experience is that the one fitted to my car has been nothing short of dangerous as in the car cutting out whilst driving The unit has been sent back to Racelogic who have said that its fine and must be something else What i have no idea as I’ve tried everything suggested and spent loads having it check Im currently trying to get something sorted at the moment with Mike at Racelogic who to be fair is very helpful and good to deal with! So like i said i have mixed views Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Luke - I can't believe you haven't already had this on the list of to-do's before you got the car!!!! RLTC is raved about everywhere - well worth it considering what it can do, and how much safer it can make the car (although it still needs a sensible driver)... The TC in my car at the moment does similar to the Supra, although not quite as bad (so I hear) but the sudden power cut can really catch you out and leave you in sticky situations......

rob wild Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Always the maps fault. Sent it to me if you like. I've had a map of Mike @ racelogic and Phill but non of them sorted it out but if you want to send me an email address i will send you a copy see if you can see something wrong cheers Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted May 1, 2007 Author Share Posted May 1, 2007 Well cheers for all your advice guys. Its now on my list of Mods to do. Might come even quicker after the BPU is done this month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
