Isnt' there extra weight in mechanical parts that would become useless after you disconnect the vdc? Would it be wise to look for those and remove them as well?

From Drivers perspective it is closer to the driver then the shifter... just about rite under the ash tray...
you WILL have your VDC / SLIP light on all the time once this is unplugged...
you WILL have better steering response
you WILL have better throttle response
you WILL still have ABS
you WILL beable to spin the wheels and not have VDC kick back in...

The above is done at the user's own risk. With this modification done the user understands that all traction control will be fully disabled while retaining use of the ABS System. Jason & or Performance NISSAN is not responsible for the User loosing control of the vehicle due to the absence of the VDC & TCS system.

is this a bad idea since the VDC has saved my a$s before and also lost control with the VDC off....
Although I hear the car responds better for you rather than the car responding itself. The best motoring guys prefer the base over the other models

How would the steering have a delay?
The steering column goes directly to the steering gearbox pinion.
If the wheel is turned 45 degrees by the driver, the pinion is going to turn 45 degrees, the rack will then move accordingly. It's all mechanical from the hands to the end of the tie rods.

How is it not 'completely' killed? When I turn my VDC/TCS off, to my knowledge I can my spin my wheels as freely as I want.
