Anyone fitted the Racelogic (or other type) traction control?
If so can you advise what parts to order and the best place to fit them?
Thanks

Good topic. I began the research for a traction control system but never finished it. I know you would need trigger wheels for the front and an additional one for the other rear axle. http://trigger-wheels.com/store/contents/en-uk/d24... has front trigger wheels specifically for an Ultima see like. I do like the RaceLogic system. I believe Autobionics has brackets and sensors.

Thanks for that J.
I didn't know about the traction control wheels but I know AB about AB bits.

Mine is fitted and wired via ECU, not properly calibrated yet though.

Traction control is the pedal on the right. It works in both directions!

Don't forget Colin Chapman's old adage. Added lightness.

Laughing apart. The pedal travel is long and the steering very direct and as long as you have your wits about you these cars are fine.
The whole point is they are raw and you have to 'drive' them.

Try them raw first. You can add TC later.

Point taken.
It will be winter project (along with some others) when I have got used to the car.
I need to get a proper set up done as the ride heights are not correct and I have some bump steer to dial out.

If you are having problems give Richard a call at the Factory. I am sure they would help to set the car up.

I agree with you in ways Paul. In the dry I don't think you need it - in fact I reckon if you have tc and Kumhos the bushes will wear out even faster!
Wet though, I reckon it's worth it. So the racelogic one with multiple settings so you can switch off in the dry and have varying control in the wet would be good.

Mine with the Pectel T6 ECU. S.wheel selectable. It works fine.
