Traction Control
Is there anyone out there who knows if it is feasible to intergrate the traction control system of an RX-8 into an FD? I assume the system consists of various sensors and or solenoids and is controled by a little black box that works in conjuntion with the the ABS system and also retards spark . I vaguely remember the subject of traction control units for the FD a couple of years ago but if I don't recall seeing a post where someone actually intalled one that worked. It seems that the system from an RX-8 might be a possibility.

There is zero chance of using the RX-8 system, which uses an electronic throttle and is fully integrated into the 32-bit encrypted ecu.
People have had success installing the RaceLogic control. Do a search under that, you'll get several good threads.

Thanks for the info Rynberg & POM HB. I was unaware the RX-8 had a drive by wire throttle. I date a girl who has one and in driving hers I couldn't tell. Great info.
