Kaan W Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) Hi all, In the new year im wanting to tidy my bay up slightly. Im not relocating the fuse box etc but will prob do battery to boot and polish a few bits up. But what im wanting to know for now as most of the clutter is the ugly traction control stuff. I have a big pump under the brake master cylinder and all the other bits and pipes on the passenger side. But I was thinking as the syvecs deals with traction control that none of this is used right? Im probably completley wrong but dont it control traction by cutting ignition?

heckler Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 alot of the pipes you mention are for the ABS. the pump thing on the brake master cylinder is the brake vac pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 alot of the pipes you mention are for the ABS. the pump thing on the brake master cylinder is the brake vac pump Yeah your right but if the stock traction control system is not in use it would be nice to have one less thing taking up room in the bay. Oh I thought I remember seeing this as being a trac pump. Even then why have I got one and alot of cars dont have it? It must be worth removing if alot of cars dont have it plus it looks horrible and weighs about 20lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 the trac control system is electronic - its just cuts the ignition. Is yours a UK spec? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because not all Supras came with traction control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
