SPS Motorsport Drive-by-Wire Conversion Kit 1.8 NA/NB

Product information "SPS Motorsport Drive-by-Wire Conversion Kit 1.8 NA/NB"

The SPS Motorsport Drive-by-Wire Conversion Kit brings your MX-5 into the modern era. This complete system replaces the conventional mechanical cable drive with state-of-the-art electronics, ensuring an extremely precise and reliable throttle response.

Technical Highlights and Components

  • Drive-by-Wire Module: The heart of the kit. It converts your pedal input into precise electronic signals that control the throttle valve directly and without delay.

  • MX-5 NC Throttle Valve Adapter: This component is perfectly matched to your MX-5 and ensures a smooth, sensitive throttle flow—ideally adapted to your driving style.

  • MX-5 NC Pedal Adapter: The optimized pedal not only improves reaction times but also enhances ergonomics, allowing you to tailor your driving experience to be both personal and sporty.

Advantages Over the Conventional Cable Drive

Compared to the classic cable drive—which, under high temperatures typical on the racetrack, can quickly break or lose precision—the Drive-by-Wire system provides tangible benefits. There are no mechanical cables that can stretch or wear out. This means that even during extreme heat, your vehicle consistently maintains control, offering a decisive safety and performance advantage when it counts the most.

With the SPS Motorsport Drive-by-Wire Conversion Kit, you not only optimize performance through more precise throttle response but also ensure a higher level of safety—especially under intense racing conditions. This upgrade impressively demonstrates how modern technology can make classic sports cars even more fascinating and reliable.

Caution

NC throttle and NC pedal are not part of the kit and must be purchased separately.

We also use some MS3 ECUs in our racing cars and the converted private cars of our employees. In this way, we have been able to gather a lot of positive experiences with the ECUs, which we can now pass on to you and from which you can benefit. In addition, we were able to convince ourselves that the control units meet our high standards. Aftermarket immobilizers can still be used.  For better starting/cranking we recommend the triggerwheel SPS Motorsport 36-2.   Hardware features    Processor: MS3    Processor MHz: 50    Processor flash: 1024Kb    Rocessor RAM: 64Kb    Coprocessors: -    Watchdog and P / S LEDs: 2    Outputs Total: 24    Injector: 4    Ignition: 4    Spare Programmable on / off: 5    Spare PWM Outputs: Same    Special / Dedicated: 10    Inputs Total: 19    Analog Dedicated: 6    Analog Spare: 5    Digital On / Off: 5    Digital Speed: 2    Knock: 1    EGT: 0    SD Card Slot: Yes    GPS Support: No.    iMFD Output to DM-6: No.    Digital Alternator Control Output: Yes    Electrical Load Sensing / idle-up: no    Smart Battery Light Output: No.    Onboard Wideband Module: No.    Onboard Baro Sensor: Yes    Immobilizer Support: No.    OBD-II: No.    Backup Power: No.    VVT Control Output: Yes    Boost Control Output: Yes    Idle Output (Hardware frequency): Yes    Speedometer Output: Yes    VICS / VTCS Output: Yes    Cool Fan Output: Yes    Condenser Fan Output: Yes    A / C Compressor Output: Yes    MAP Sensor Input: Yes    Coolant Temp Input: Yes    Air Temp Input: Yes    TPS Input: Yes    Wideband Input: Yes    Wideband digital input: no    Oil Temperature Input: Yes    Oil Pressure Input: Yes    EGT input: no    Flex Input: Yes    VSS Hall Input: Yes (2)    VSS VR Input (s): No.    Clutch Switch Input: Yes    Neutral Switch Input: no    Brake Switch Input: no    TEN terminal input: no    Knock Sensor Inputs: Yes    RTC: Yes    Launch Control Input: Yes    Tableswitch Input: Yes    Boost Switch (Hi / Lo): Yes    A / C Switch Input: Yes    Additional Input / Output Connectors: 1x37way Software features    Fuel Tables: 4, 16x16    Ignition Tables: 4, 16x16    AFR tables: 2, 12x12    Boost Tables: 4, 8x8    Boost by Gear: Yes    Traction Control: Yes    ALS: Yes    Full A / C Support: Yes    P / S Support: No.    Water Injection: Yes    CEL Infrastructure: Yes    Advanced CEL Warning: no    Limp Fashion: Yes    Advanced Engine Protection: No.For an appointment for installation, please contact us at termin@sps-motorsport.com
