Who ever said you can't have the OEM cruise control working with a FFIM was WRONG!

[92nsx]

I dont remember who posted it but I have just proved it that you can! I have it working on my 89 trubo. Right now it isn't the best at low speeds (kind of jumpie under 60ish). So I need to move the conection point from the cruise control cable to the TB, out away farther from the center point of the Q45 that I have on my FFIM.

But at 70-75 mph it worked great, no jumping!!! It is not like the OEM setup where it has it's own spring loaded arm. The way I have it set up it flexes, twists, the CC cable when not in use. But I now have it working, and know it can be done so now I will just tinker with it more.

Just want all of you to know that with ambition you don't have to ditch the cruise control and A/C on a 7M with a FFIM. Im proof that it can be done :icon_bigg

When I go out to the garage today I can take some pics. also. Remember they wont be the prettiest, but it looks ok

Did you modify the location, or ANYTHING on the cruise control from a stock supra? Because then im pretty sure it not OEM....

Nope the CC unit, vacuum pump, cable, switches, ect. are in the OEM location, and all OEM

Here are a couple quick pics. I'm still cleaning the garage since it is super nice out today.
As I said it is working and just needs tinkering to make it look cleaner and work better at low speeds.
The CC cable's black rubber coating melted off it last summer, it touched the alt. B cable, opps. Also don't worry about the vacuum line to the FPR, I have been lazy on replacing it to the VSV witch is under the intake manifold, and is a PITA to get to.

It can notconnect on top like I planned, because it hits the hood

 

[CPT Furious]

Good to know. I'm still waiting to see what Jack and the SupraSport gang come up with for their new FFIM.

Mine has always worked no matter which intake I've used even the DBW setup (CC is a must have for me)

 

[Poodles]

Yeah, but you run the JDM setup (still need to reasearch that...)

I do! How is that? I think this is 100% in the USA, and for that fact made right in central Minnesota:biglaugh:

BTW poo JDM connects to gas pedel IIRC, and mine dose not.

 

[Poodles]

No, speaking of IJ's setup LOL

Can't see how it works enough to say if it's safe or not yet...

 

[upgradedsupra]

Good going.

I plan on using a DBW when I get everything else sorted on my car.

[funky_monkey58]

I would say it works alright.

 

[grimreaper]

[92nsx]

grim, nope I still hate my FFIM. But a different well made FFIM I would like.

Never driven more than three hours straight have you.. Cruise Control is a necessity on long drives.

LHD cruise is different to RHD cruise, never knew that. Its true you do learn something new every day.
