Both units require connections to be made for electrical power and brake switch de-activation. Our sophisticated Prototype Department has an expert staff, working with today's most advanced equipment. They can bring a product from concept into full reality in astonishingly little time. This update adds the ability to select Blind Spot Cameras when moving as well as addresses a bug when the rear camera power was wired incorrectly. Once a vehicle-specific software package has been created, it is then written to the E-Cruise Module inside of a Faraday cage in order to reduce incidences of outside EMI. The latest in commercial fleet safety technology, this system detects blind spot, overtaking, and cross traffic of other vehicles, people, or objects.

Both are made by Rostra Precision Controls Inc of Laurinburg, North Carolina. Like the factory unit, both use a servo assembly to control the throttle cable, with the servo activated by engine vacuum tapped from a fitting on the top of the intake manifold designed for this purpose.

Backed by nearly 150 years of experience in precision manufacturing, we have earned our reputation as an ideal partner throughout the automotive industry. Whether you’re looking for a new Rostra complete cruise control kit or a replacement for an existing Rostra product, we have what you need to optimize your vehicle’s cruise control system.

Those whose Miata for one reason or another did not come equipped with a factory installed cruise control may find my experiences with two varieties of one particular brand of after-market cruise control of interest. Engine/Setup Timer is how fast the cruise control retracts the cable once the cruise is set. If the vehicle drops below the set cruising speed but then recovers, set to Medium.

The control falls readily to hand, as the saying goes. We then need to determine which E-Cruise Module best suites a particular application based on the signal that we need to send to the ECU when cruise control is active. Someone referred to this unit in an earlier posting as the ‘single piece' control. It costs $US 140 from Moss Motors, shipping charges and the accursed Canadian GST not included.

I drive to Oregon a couple of time a year (900+ miles each way) and the thought of this drive without the cruise is just painful.

Once I tightened it as much as possible without opening the throttle, the cruise has worked wonderfully. If you do have to get an after-market cruise control, make sure that you are getting the two-piece Rostra/MAX-5 unit. I don't know if it is available from anyone except Performance Buyers Club.

Gain is how the cruise control reacts to both road conditions and engine size. Always start at the factory setting which is Mid-Gain. If the vehicle surges while the cruise is engaged, you will need to adjust the gain setting. A fast surge, when the vehicle speeds up rapdily above the cruising speed, requires the gain to be lowered. A slow surge, where the vehicle slows well below the cruising speed, requires the gain to be raised to High.
I realized the key to the kit was to fine tune it AFTER you drove it a couple of time. I have had it installed for 2 months now and I only had to fine tune it that first day. Once installed, my first drive was very disappointing. The cruise would just keep surging on and off the throttle (over and over and over). I though about why it was doing this, and after inspecting the way I connected it to the throttle, I left a little slack in the cruise cable. (the instructions warn you not to leave it too tight, but it doesn't tell you what will happen if it's too loose.).

Today, as a result of years of experience and research, we are continuing to lead the way with the development of new, innovative solutions to meet the challenges of tomorrow. Once the loaded software package has been verified in triplicate, we then test drive the vehicle to confirm that cruising speed holds between 31 and 80 MPH with minimal fluctuation. Both units come with an identical stalk-mounted control switch which fits very nicely on the lower steering column shroud.
If you are an international customer and would like to change the currency that prices are displayed in, you can do so here. Please note that Checkout Prices will be in US Dollars. If at all possible, buy a Miata with the factory installed cruise control.
Based on the cell concept, our employees are trained in on-line SPC practices. All products are final tested for specification verification. Rapid prototyping allows us to create new products per customer specifications at an incredibly fast pace with very little delay between product design and shipping. Our ability to scale production lines and add new products is largely due to our facility size. Our manufacturing plant measures over 80,000 square-feet. For years Rostra has been known throughout the automotive industry as a leader in the manufacture, as well as the development, of an extensive line of products.
Maintaining on-site technical support means you get answers to complicated questions quickly and from technicians that helped develop the products you install. All settings are based on 1/8-inch slack in cruise control cable. More slack will cause the cruise control to surge or lose speed once set. RF steering wheel-mounted switches can be installed on several vehicles, but are not recommended for every vehicle.
All of the Rostra products in our inventory are designed to last. Located below this FAQ section, you will find installation manuals for each product Rostra manufacturers including aftermarket cruise controls, backup camera systems, ultrasonic parking assist systems, seat heaters, and automotive lumbar support. We do not recommend using any Rostra cruise control systems on motorcycle, ATV, or other non-automotive applications as we do not validate the operation of these units on these vehicles. Due to safety concerns surrounding these installations, Rostra representatives are unable to provide technical support on these applications. Depending on your specific needs, we have the right Rostra cruise control kit for your vehicle. Our kits feature various switch models that are compatible with many different vehicle makes and models, along with cables and other parts needed to install a complete new or replacement cruise control system.
