Default How to get DCCD working from 2007 Spec D

Hey all,

Anyone got advice for fitting and electrical for DCCD? I've got a 2007 DCCD spec d box and bits including ECU and wonder what she needs to get box ecu working with control switch etc. Is there any sensors that are needed?

Where does the oe DCCD ecu fit on the original car? I'm totally new to this DCCD game as you can prob tell..

Do you need the dash and thumb wheel too ? Has your car even got the necessary wiring loom built-in ?

I know even less....

Best bet is a stand alone ECU for the DCCD I think the amount of sensors for the OE setup is very complex!

Yaw sensor on the Spec D drivers rear side.

the STi's yaw rate sensor detects hints of oversteer and understeer and redirects torque between the front and rear wheels accordingly

Hmm, starting to sound more complex...I'll ask the supplier if he'll remove the sensor(s) also. Loom wise, I'll have to wire up from scratch as no way will my 02 have the right connectors for it...well, highly unlikely anyway. Bit of a mine field isn't it Dunx...

You'd be best off with a Neetronics controller or a DCCD pro.

As for yaw sensors and stuff, not really needed. If you don't use them then you don't have the auto function. No great loss.

Daz, any idea of the costs of these controllers and where to purchase? What functions would you lose (or gain) with these?

So the oe ecu could work non-auto without yaw sensors? Anyone got a wiring diagram of the 2007 DCCD setup? I like the sound of the neeutronics but after more info...
