NOS50 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 I am trying to figure out how to shut the VSC off.I have a on/off switch for the traction control but none for the VSC so I'm wondering how it will interfere when I autox it.

Dr. Apex Posted February 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Eh, that VSC will slow you down, check and see if there's a fuse for it. The car has Ground Control coilovers w/AGX shocks, ST front and rear sway bars, poly bushings, front tie bar, front camber plates, and a roll bar.

NOS50 Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Yea,I actuallly work for Lexus Of Dublin so our Lead Tech has a call in to Chicago to see if there is a way to put a switch on it so I can shut it on/off when I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Apex Posted February 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 That would be perfect, otherwise you'll be fighting it through the course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bam Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Welcome, but I've got a few questions for ya. I somewhat knew the guy that used to own that car in your sig, if thats your current car, except it had black wheels, but the same license plate. Anyways the car was up for sale a month or so ago and I'm guessing you bought it? Anyways what I'm getting at is that it was a TURBO, but your sig pic shows the same car and you're claiming its a NT ?? Why? Here's a link to the car/your car.... http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21466 It even has the same suspension setup you said you have....hmmm anyone else confused?

Here is a little bit of history on the car for ya since he didn't manage to say it earlier. He owned the exact same car, exact same color with the excpetion of it being a Turbo. That car got sold and then he bought this car. I know, I went with him to go and pick it up. This car is NA. Exact same color, everything..lol I guess he really likes these same cars..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bam Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 So achilles is the guy that was selling the laser turbo i posted above? The guy I'm thinking about lives off 161/beechwood ish, somewhere right off 161 by that speedway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Apex Posted February 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 BAM, I did own that Laser with the black wheels. That was a turbo Laser. I sold it and purchased the one you see now, same year, color, just not a turbo. The coilovers are the same, but this car has swaybars, bushings, BBS wheels, and a roll bar. Other than that theyre nearly the same car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Apex Posted February 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Thanx! In my opinion it was going downhill and the name neede to be changed, it was voted on but later decided by thew owner the name should stay for the moment. I eneded up having a disagreement with a couple people and left the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
