manitcor Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 not easy, not fun and expensive even from a yard. Im looking into ripping mine out completly and going with a basic master cylinder and a smaller booster for more room in the engine bay.

z34_nut Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 yup, we have the shitty intigrated ABS system. so you need to pull or replace your whole master cylinder also have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 mine doesnt work, so I just leave it. when you hit the brakes hard you slide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rockstar Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 ABS blows anyway.. Just drop the setup and brake it old school.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just drop the setup and brake it old school.. your opinion but have u drove a new cadilac with abs? i don't think u have. if your turning in the snow and u start to slide it will lock up certian tires to help u turn. its crazy. i also like my abs/traction control on my camaro, the car stops on a dime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Rockstar Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 I should have been more specific.. I apologize.. Gen 1 ABS and 1.5 ABS bites. Im sorry I pissed off an ABS supporter.. I don;t want to make waves.. Therefore, this will be my final post in the tread.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam96SL Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 I hear some of you saying the car won't *pass*......do they inspect such things where you guys live????.....I had an alternator problem on my 96SL cutty.....so I have replaced the alternator.....all the bad things are gone except the ABS light stays on.....{BTW, I like ABS also....it's a more confident feeling for me...and yes I have been driving on the public roads now for some35 years} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
