Hey guys I haven't posted much on here. My biggest claim to fame post was on the Infinti Q45 keys and where to get them cut in Phoenix, AZ for 35.00 versus 150.00. However, I am always on here reading the posts and commenting where I have some knowledge. So I want to remove the TCS system from my 1994 Infiniti Q45a. I don't need the headache. Anyone got any hints.

I think you need to look really hard at acquiring a Yugo. That car should be able to match your superior driving skills.

Is your TCS causing an issue? I wonder if you could just unplug the relays or connector to the TCS actuator. You'd probably have to remove the light bulbs in the instrument cluster as well...

Or you could go further with it all and retrofit with all non-tcs parts. Throttle body, etc...

What kind of issues are you having with your tcs? In 249,000 miles, my tcs has had zero issues with just a annual turkeybaster suckout of the resivour and refill with fresh brake fluid......even the 2 relays are original.

Very little in performance would be gained by removing it if thats what your after. You sir a have a rare car and here you want to go and trash it all up by removing the good stuff. Sell the car and find a base Q45....
