Hello,
I am looking (worldwide, possibly europe tho) for ASC unit with wiring and aluminium block: vr-4 - 6a13tt - 1997. Thanks for tip.

Ok, so what i am after is this: ASC unit (different term for traction unit, although this is newest version after facelift). I need it complete including wiring and this alu box which is on picture. How much?
Attachment 82379
Attachment 82380
To me it looks like ABS pump?
As I said I have whole working car to brake its facelift one and im sure there is parts you want, let me confirm tomorrow if I got what you want
Thanks man. Like I said, ASC is basically post-facelift upgraded version of TCL, installed mainly into galant shipped to switzerland (maybe because of that snow, idk). List of parts: ASC unit in the engine space, some kind of alu cube connected to it, wiring and sensor (?) which is located under steering wheel, connected to the unit.
I need it because I am building vr2 and i dont wanna change front tires every month.
Adam is very busy at the moment he is in the middle of rebuilding an engine and fitting the engine, gearbox and transfer case to the car so forgive him if he does not get back to you right away.
Will do my best to sort it out b4 holiday just need to sort out more important things to me
Do what is important. I will ask you again on start of september. Good luck then.
Your reference to ASC being only on the facelift is incorrect.
Most pre-facelift auto VR4s will have TCL and ASC (type S). It consists of an ASC ecu (which is combined with the AYC ECU), an ABS hydraulic unit (the item you posted an image of), a G sensor and yaw sensor located under the armrest, and the steering angle sensor in the steering column.
The AYC with ASC ECU is also different between a manual car and an auto.
Its important to also know there was an official recall on the ABS unit due to the possibility of it malfunctioning and the brakes failing. It'll be quite difficult to be sure you source a modified version if you can't know the recall status of the donor vehicle.
The ASC is designed to correct slides when the wheels lose traction by varying the brake force per wheel. http://mmc-manuals.ru/manuals/i-miev...0050400ENG.HTM
:happy:
The ASC system is, as TAR said, a feature on a variety of vehicles, not just the facelift, but requires all the other sensors that go with it, and is for trying to prevent a slide, not to prevent traction loss on a driven wheel, so I don't think you'll get what you think you'll be getting if you go to the effort of swapping out all of these braking components.
If you want traction control to apply power to the ground well when driving only the front wheels, then I would be fitting an LSD to the gearbox, and an aftermarket engine ECU, such as a Link G4X StormX, and wire up the existing ABS sensors into the ECU. You can then have driven and non-driven wheel speeds (if you wire in at least 2, I would wire in all 4 if you've got free digital inputs), and then have the ECU cut fuel/ignition to the engine when it detects that the driven wheels are slipping. If you get a G4X XtremeX instead, you could also fit an electronic throttle body, which will also allow you to limit the throttle opening angle to further aid with dialling in the best torque delivery possible for the available traction. Or, if you step up again to the G4X FuryX you also get an on-board wideband O2 controller.
Thanks, did not know this was possible, pretty pricy tho. I will let my mechanic know. Only one thing, will this LSD work with manual gearbox from 6a13?
(I couldn't find fitting gearbox so we have gone with 6a13 one. Although I actually own original clutch for 6a13tt manual.)
I'm not sure on the LSD side of things - you'll need to check your exact gearbox for compatible LSD choices.
Yes, the ECU is reasonably expensive, but the flexibility, ease of tuning, and the advanced features it gives you over a standard ECU are well worth it in my opinion. The ability to do things like limit boost by gear and add traction control will help you put that power down, as you will be traction limited. I have a VR4 engine driving the rear wheels of a Ford Anglia, and I'm definitely traction limited - once I get those systems properly set up, it'll be a game changer for how the car drives and how well it will accelerate at the maximum possible rate. The factory ECUs could never do what I want it to do!
