TRC but not as you may know it?!!? - is300_dino - 16-12-2017
yeah ok i been looking at banzai again, page 110 and page 111 is a product test for throttle response controllers. has anyone had any experience with these are they worthwhile on say my N/A is300? guru's enlighten me with your knowledge of these electrical gizmo's.
Thanks
Dean

Isn't that what the TRC does on the 300? that's what it does on the 200 reduces/kills the throttle when the wheels loose grip or that's I think it does anyway:blink:

We may be confusing two things here, are we talking about traction control or throttle controllers?

I thought throttle controllers increased the sensitivity of the throttle on fly by wire systems, to give a more "sporty" feel??

2tongues I thought throttle controllers increased the sensitivity of the throttle on fly by wire systems, to give a more "sporty" feel??
So that's nothing to do with TRC then
I guess Dino means Throttle Response Controlers not TRC(Traction Control) like what's already on the LEX soz my mistake:biggrin:

Dino does mean a throttle response controller,
but will they work on an IS300? didnt think that was fly by wire.

Pretty sure the IS300 has electronic throttle control, just like the IS200.

lol i knew this would cause confusion stav and 2tongues and stevie are correct i do mean THROTLE RESPONSE CONTROLERS. i heard the 300 was electrically controlled as it had no mechanically moving parts not directly linked peddle to throttle body? (not sure if thats correct tho). the car banzai tested it on was an isf, so do all lex have lecky throtles?
thes gadgets are supposed to reduce spongy feel of accelerator peddle and mimic to the ecu that you've got a really really heavy quick right foot and amps the signal to the throttle making the engine open up quicker?? well thats the theory....

Going slightly off-topic, have you tried that simple mod that you can do to IS300s which just involves altering something to do with the throttle pedal, which is said to help the throttle response ? Sorry if that sounds a bit vague, I'm guessing you probably have heard of it but I can't remember the exact details. If you don't know what I'm on about I will find out more.

Marsdendean you move something under the pedal don't you??
Yep. The details of the mod are >>here<<
