(long TC off btw switches only stability control off, EBD and e-diff is still on).
That's why many tracking twins prefer using so called "pedal dance", unofficial procedure, that leaves just basic ABS on, switching all the other nannies off. From my experience in ND miata, it's nannies were way less in way vs prerestyle twin's nannies. Have no own experience in restyle twin though to compare it's nannies. But on older ones PD may help in several cases on track.

Funny you mention the pedal dance, as I was searching on the forums again today and found a couple of post talking about how their Traction Control was sensitive after coilover installation or different wheel/tyre setups, but what's more odd is that this was only for certain people. A shop owner mentioned they installed coilover and wheel/tyres for over 100 86/BRZs and never had these issues.
Regardless, I thought why not give this VSC reset a try.

But Basically, you need Techstream, a way to connect and just have the car on a flat ground.
I've just got a Tactrix OpenPort 2.0, so I used this.
I did this and it has helped a lot with the "regular" driving issue I had before, EG, roundabouts you can even safety push it and not have the traction control at all, or if pushing it, it'll only turn on as you begin to straighten up.
So for me, this helped a bit.
It still pushed/floaty/slides the front when pushing it around corners (Only really tried in 2nd/3rd (so above 80kms), but at least with Traction on, it was less serve.
So to summarise, issue is still there, but traction control was very sensitive before the VSC reset and now it operates when you expect it to. So I'm happy about that

.
I'm still under the belief that I need another Alignment to actually eliminate the issue, as with TC off, obviously the issue is still prevalent.
But I thought that was very interesting.
Also I don't really want to be having to do the pedal dance when wanting to drive spirited.
