Noz Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 What hardware is out there regarding this? I'm keen to understand the technology. I can only find bike tech. Not sure what people have ever seen out there. I don't have this issue. But it's good to learn, and I'd love to drag mine at some point. Sure I need a few more ponies but still good to see what others know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Look at the drag racing stuff - https://www.dragzine.com/news/wheelie-bar-101-installation-and-top-tuning-tips/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 Surely thats just hardware to stop wheelie rather than software buddy I have an electronic throttle. I was thinking an accelerometer with an electronic controller could adjust the throttle position to control front wheel lift. I'm sure there must be something like this already made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Reviews Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Your right foot? Torque limiting by gear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike2JZ Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Your wheelie control will be your R154. It will shit the bed long before you car manages a wheelie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 Lol I meant the whole system really not a frame you have to fix on. Wheelie control. Wondering what tech would allow you yo control a wheelie. Adjust a setting and then suddenly throttle position controls the angle of the car. Thus allowing you to have a 1 inch. 2 inch height setting etc. Surely someone must have something in racing? Mike R154 isnt staying. It's only a stop gap!

Style Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Electronics-wise, the US guys run a laser sensor for ride height on the front end. Set the height you want and tell the ECU to do what you wish (alter timing probably?) to pull power and nose the car down again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 Perfect! Thanks boys. Wonder if Syvecs can control this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike2JZ Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Perfect! Thanks boys. Wonder if Syvecs can control this. Should be do-able yes. You will need to define a custom sensor that will act as your ride height sensor, then create a number of 2D/3D custom maps that will use 'Ride Height Sensors vs Variable X' which would define changes to ignition timing, boost, DBW etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 Can't believe the price on some of those sensors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
