    Bye bye DRC!

    Got a call late Thursday that my rear shock and line had a leak while I'm on vacation in Clearwater! Ughhhh so I think it's time to say the DRC system has to go. I'm going with PSS9 I got a price of 2450.00 anyone have a better price?

    This trip is costing me money everywhere!

    Pallete, go to this page and fill out the contact at the bottom, the page says they answer emails in 2 hours or less,even after hours. Better yet, I'll do it right now, and let you know.

    Too bad you aren't driving, you could pick the box up on your way back!

    are you going to just disconnect, or strip out the entire DRC system, lines and everything? I like to remove things from cars :P On Skylines, the hydraulic four-wheel steering system is usually removed. Most people just block it off, but I tore out the whole system, which had lines drive by the power steering pump all the way to the back of the car. Same with the blow off valve recirculation system - you can block it off, or tear out a whole lot of pipes and hoses.

    Just wondering, as I know a fair number of people ditch the DRC for coilovers, but how many leave the system in? Or would the ECU throw a fault if the DRC isn't there?

    DRC is purely mechanical. No electronics.

    Some remove the whole system, most just replace the shocks/coils.

    Its a mixed bag, some remove all components, myself included. Some just cap off lines. the DRC doesn't have any sensors that tie in, completely mechanical system. You are maybe thinking of the C6...
