Cruise Control

[loggyboy]

Hi im looking into getting an IS200 and one of my 'wants' (or 'would like's anyway) is cruise, but im unsure what models had it as most adverts/listings seem to have mixed models as having it, was it therefore an option to any model?

Cheers, Dave

That's the reason why you want a cruise control :shutit:

Seriously, it is possible to fit an aftermarket cruise control on a manual IS. It has been done before.

I am building an Advance-cruise-control for the Lexus. It knows where the speed limit signs are.

'Nothing like it anywhere'. See http://www.gpscruise.com

I have a manual car which I put a cruise control on. Its the old-school with vacuum system made by rostra.

The only difference is, there is a switch on the clutch-pedal to deactivate it like the brake...

So, yes, you can put a cruise on a stick, if theres a gas pedal, there is a cruise for it.

I was thinking about fitting an aftermarket kit to our Ford Galaxy auto recently and my search came up with these people:-

I have no personal experience of them though, and havn't yet made contact with them. Maybe someone else has......

Cheers,

IanB :D

I've always thought about fitting cruise control, but more just cause i like electronic projects more than anything else.

Also, the cruise has buttons on it to add signs on the fly.

For grins, goto gpscruise.com (where you found the map).

Zoom in to where you know a speed limit sign is,

Click on the road to get the gps coordinates in a popup window.

Copy them down and email it to me. I'll post it with Stav as owner....

I like it, would take a while and a fair few people to get some proper benefit but i really do like the idea.

Well done mate.
