mawby Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 It was also optional on most pre-face lift models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiten55 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 whilst we're on the topic, is there anyway to de-limit it so that it works above 70mph too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanchan Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 whilst we're on the topic, is there anyway to de-limit it so that it works above 70mph too? Is that purely a j-spec issue? I'm sure my UK will cruise at over 70 on my private runway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 You can buy good quality aftermarket cruise control kits for about £150. Would be relatively easy to fit to a Supra too Funny that, I was just gonna say it'd be nice to make your own or fit an aftermarket one. You could maybe then have an adaptive speed one. Here is one, although it's for electronic throttle (Drive by Wire.. only in the VVTi Supras I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Various kits listed in the yellow Product Overview box in the top right of this page. This is probably the right one. I fancy one. Who's gonna be the test mule? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I've got it in my GZ, but I'm toying with the idea of changing steering wheel, which means I need additional bits to keep it working. Question is though - do aftermarket ECU's (when/if I go single turbo) still give the CC functionality? Because if not, there's probably not much point in me trying to keep it now.

Soop Dogg Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 okay so the GZ models and some uks... All UK's have it. This is because all UK's are GZ's, I guess. i was told it is quite rare on this model its not been retro fitted Yours is actually retro-fitted. I fitted it on your car when Angie owned it. Someone said it couldn't be done and I kind of did it as a challenge. However, fitting it is a major pain in the ass. Fortunately for me, my first Supra (which I wrote off) had the relevant multi-plugs in the loom which I was able to cut off and use as this car didn't have them. I bought the cruise ECU, column switch, brake pedal switch (required because it's got 2 switch contacts in it - one for the cruise and one for the brake lights) and actuator from a written off GZ spec and spent a week putting it all together. It uses about 4 power supplies and has to have conections to the handbrake, gearbox ECU, instrument panel, brake pedal etc etc. In all there are (from memory) 23 wires from the ECU multi-plug that are necessary to solder into the vehicles wiring loom. Wouldn't want to do it again really! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
