Hi guys, got one of our members @bladesux who wants to install a TCS setup to his 4G; because he wants everything Jap spec. I have mentioned it's probably not worth it, but he is pretty keen on having everything JDM installed.

I can supply him with the ECU & IP Cluster, but what other components will he need to acquire to complete the setup? :think:

p.s. @bluejackhustler, can you fix that ECU I broke if I send it to him to send to you?

Cheers.

TCS Gearbox? Is that different to the others, I don't know.. can't be much else, surely?!

I think the Gearbox is not different :) .

Runs off the ABS system I believe

Prob need the wiring loom as the TCS Ecu has more plugs

And just to say it's really really not worth the hassle of retro fitting it, it's a totally pants system and a complete waste of time if not infact plan dangerous as it cuts the power at the first hint of wheel spin and leaves you in the path of on coming traffic

TCS only came with the M2B4 and the Auto LSD box if you really want to be a true JDM Bummer

Of course, the wiring loom!! You will need that. Ammo is right, the TCS ECU has 4 plugs, non-TCS only has 3.

Yeah, I've got the dash switches as well; forgot about those.

Any gearbox is fine as far as I'm aware.
