I was pointed to a custom switch from CH4X4 that fits perfect in the usb slot.











Bumping this to the top because it is absolutely gorgeous. I'm over here like a fat kid on a Mars bar.

I know in reality this doesn't change for much people as this is a bit more of a drifting style driving. But for most track guys its just a nice feature.
When you say "brake balancing", are you referring to Electronic Brake Force Distribution or something else?

Does anybody know if Gerald's tracbox works with 2017 vehicles? I know it says on his website that it doesn't and he wanted to test on a 2017. Has anybody tried it? My Beastronix 86Nanny is not working very well any more and I am looking for an alternative.

I was his test mule for 2017+. I've had mine installed for 6+ months and it works. I have Auto door locks, pedal dance, seat belt chimes, and fan control.

I did email him to remind him. I have the first iteration, so I'm not sure what changed in his "1.5v" update. I emailed him to ask as well as offer my car for any further testing.

Hey! yeah i do have support for the most things. But since the first version i also added the ABS diable. But never rested that with the 17+ cars. I should maybe add that to the listing so people will understand. Thanks chuck!

Has anyone had inconsistent power when using the 12 volt source from the track box harness?

I'm just now piecing my car back together but I tied in my four Halo ring switches and my Greddy gauges all on the 12 volt source coming from the track box. Currently my gauges will turn on with the ignition switch and then turn off once the car is cranked or just after they've been on a few seconds, and the halo rings are illuminated but pulse bright to dim.

I'm going to dig a little deeper tonight or tomorrow but I figured I would ask the question to eliminate as much as possible.
