I dont think brz comes with auto stop\start to save fuel.

I think you need to turn off traction controll to do burnouts.

With motor running press and hold the Traction button in centre console the one with squiggly lines on it. Press and hold it for 5 seconds then orange light on dash should iluminate. Then you can do burnouts

I'm reminded why I would never buy a second hand sports car.

TC off is only to ease start going in winter. After reaching some (rather low speed) it reengages. VSC also has rather low allowed slip angles before cutting in, allowing only very slight drifts.

Want more - do suggested hold-5-sec TC button which should be sufficient for burnouts. It's ABS on, and EBD on and e-diff on, but later two shouldn't interfere with burnouts. Or pedal dance. I doubt you did later correctly though, as with it only basic ABS remains, and to see if one has enabled it successfully can be seen by instrument dash indicators (btw, often reason to not enabling might be cold, not warmed up engine. but then again, one can see that by indicators). With 5-sec TC and/or pedal dance it should never do something like cutting engine power on slip.

Gotta do the pedal dance for burnouts as far as I know.

It is hilarious that they "documented" your email.

JazzleSAURUS · 01-12-2018, 10:29 AM

No issues doing a burnout if you press and hold the traction control button until both lights come on in the cluster.

The pedal dance should work too.

I've got to ask, have you done a burnout before? Do you know how to start one? These cars don't have a ton of torque or power, so if your only burnout to date is in a V8 American car or something, you're going to have to be a bit rougher than you're used to.

Of note: burnouts are incredibly rough on cars, especially ones designed to be as light and sporty as possible. They are especially rough when a drive thinks you should just hold the brake pedal half way, and just ease into it until the wheels start to spin. Awesome way to break stuff.

how can i do ?
i love this car...but that problem
how I turn off please?

OH and it isn't "burnouts" he wants to do but brake stands. Make lots of smoke and burn up tires but no real purpose for them. If he does manage to do them the next post will be "I slide off road cuz these tires are no good".

EDIT: I guess the definition of what a burnout is has changed and I never kept up with the term. Apparently what used to be a brake stand (hold the car and spin the tires) is now a burnout. A real burnout (back in the day) did not use the brakes and the car would move forward while laying rubber. Oh well, now I know they are considered the same thing.

Yes and both require the IQ of a neutrino.

Well we would do 10 foot or so burnouts up to the tree when I was drag racing but there was a purpose for those.
Doing it in a parking lot with a bunch of vaping flat brims is a whole different level.

More instinctual than embedding a YouTube video on this forum at least.
