Traction control - VDC green yellow light? That's a ball ache when full on - keeps activating the rear brakes on cornering
I always drive mine with that semi-off (green). So much more fun

I usually press it once? But left it all alone on this occasion. Never driven Castle Combe before. Much better UK tracks imo but glad I've been around it.

press once turns it off, press & hold will turn it semi off. Light will go green on dash rather than yellow

to me that makes no sense. Surely one press would be "i want to turn it off but not fully as I'm not confident I'll put it in a ditch" and holding it in for a few seconds means "yes I've thought about it , and am holding this button in for longer to prove I'm confident in my ability to not mess this up and I'm not just pressing a button to see what happens"

but thats just me.

I had this problem a couple of weeks ago while filming with tiff ,, couldn't seem to get it to switch off properly and kept cutting the power ,,,, makes no sense to me either as seems like they have the setting backwards ,,, single press should be traction setting and hold to switch off ,,, but they put it around the other way lol

Thought I would share the link with you all.

I attended (5.50 in vid) but if you watch the majority of it you'll see some nice motors such as the, Senna, F40, GT3's, Lambo's, etc

I believe the cars on show was around the 500 mark, not bad at all.

Another great idea by Subaru, cant even make it simple to turn traction control off. Don't even start me on unlocking the door for a passenger. Even at the weekend standing behind my car with the engine running, fob in my hand . . . . .couldn't open the boot. Had to go to button inside drivers door.

In what way?

One press opens drivers door only.
Two press all doors.... Or one press then press the door unlock button on the inside drivers door... Next to the eindow lock switch.

Or just buy the complete cosworth system. Then I'd need a remap.

CS400 GT30 turbo is slightly rotated so nothing fits a standard vf turbo'd car

The Sti front chassis stiffening kit and lower draw bar closes the loop for anyone who has fitted a top strut brace. Having fitted this I would go as far as to say that a strut brace is pointless on the hatch without a lower brace.( I've had just a top bar for a year)
