BRZ FRS GT86 Trac-Box

Trac-Box is a product that utilizes a pre-existing, unused “options connector” on the back of the radio cavity (does not mater what head unit you have) to communicate to the Canbus network in the vehicle. Using this communication path, the Trac-Box is able to control several vehicle functions, either automatically, or via one or more switches (depending on how you configure your order.) The tracBox works for all 13 through 20 cars regardless of your region or trim level.

The current Trac-Box feature set includes:

• Instantaneous disabling of Traction Control, Stability Control, and Electronic Differential (commonly referred to as ‘Pedal Dance Mode’) independently of temperature. No more waiting for the engine to fully warm up! Car must be complexity stopped to enable it.
• Instantaneous disabling of the Anti-Lock Braking System (brake biasing remains active).
• Force both radiator fans to 100% (useful for cooling the vehicle at a track day).
• Disable the TPMS light (for those of you running wheels without TPMS sensors) (This mode works if car is equipped with TPMS from factory).
• Disable the Seatbelt Chime (useful if you are running aftermarket seats/harnesses). Note that the seatbelt indicator on the dash will remain lit/blinking.
• Auto-Lock doors when vehicle speed reaches 5 MPH, and Auto-Unlock doors when vehicle is stopped and the hand brake is applied.

For each these features, you can select from three options:

• “Yes” will provide a wire lead necessary to control this function with a switch.
• “No” will omit this feature from your Trac-Box unit.
• “Force On” permanently enables that function, and does not provide a wire lead. Note that this option is not available for Fan Mode.

The Trac-Box comes as a small electronic box, along with two harnesses: the first harness connects the box to the options connector port at the back of the stock head unit. There is no need to modify the stock wiring for this process; it’s plug and play! The other harness connects the box to your switches. It provides wire leads for all options you selected, as well as power and ground for the switches. This is mostly plug-and-play, however you will need to daisy-chain the power and ground leads of your switches together as I only provide one power and one ground lead. How you configure your Trac-Box will determine how many switches you need. Do not use the Trac-Box to power anything else externally. It only provides enough current for the switch LEDs and the box itself. In order for a feature to turn on, Signal wire has to connect to 12v (provided by red wire).

Note** OBD2 port use,

If your using a logger operating with “OBD2” or flashing your ecu. If you have any “features” of the tracbox on while thats device is actively communicating on it might cause interference. Our new TracBox is designed to minimize interruptions but some may still happen. For best results, when logging avoid flipping switches when actively logging. Other then that the new box should avoid any further interruptions.

 

Included in the box:

• Trac-Box
• short wire from Trac-Box to accessory connector (15CM)
• long wires from Trac-Box to switches (no terminated so you need to crimp yourself, 30CM)
• wire crimps

 

**Some features of the track box, for example pedal dance or ABS disable are intended for track use only. Do not use on the streets. Your responsible for your own driving skills. GJP is not responsible for any damages caused by external factors, drive only on track at your own risk.

Speaking of switches, the Trac-Box will work perfectly with the illuminated switch panels sold by Racecar go brrr!, which are designed specifically for the BRZ/FRS/GT86, and utilize the otherwise-useless cubby hole at the bottom of the center stack. I only sell the Trac-Box, so you will need to source switches one way or another. You can order those switches at www.racecargobrrr.com
