PM’d
I have the parts I just don’t know how to install it
That posted link looks budget… I just bought pre made lines and bent them to shape. The shapes are by no means oem quality but they do the trick.
Only part that stumped me at first was what to do when I pulled out the set screw which blocks the middle port. I had a 300zx bmc and I tired cutting the nipple out of my old 240 one and it ended up not being the same size. I went to part source and the guy found me whats called an inverted flare. The flare was 4 bucks and saves you the hassel of trying to put out and push in a nipple.
I don’t completely understand why anyone would delete this.
other then it saves about 10 pounds of weight on one side of the car. I mean, that and maybe you like locking your tires up and making balled spots on them? I have driven both as most of you have with and without. shit i drove a tinny Tacoma pickup truck with no ABS that’s scary shit in the rain down hill. See the point of a good driver is when braking hard they don’t lock up the tires because the point just before lockup is where you have your strongest braking. the catch is the ABS will only kick on if you lock one of them up hell they can still lock up for a quick sec with ABS. I rarely need my ABS to react for me because i know how to stop my car just before lockup. but you cant predict what all 4 wheels will do.
My point is other then saving 10 pounds of weight when it comes to stopping both abs and non will stop just as fast before lockup. Catch is if your in a panic situation and you need to stop in the rain going down hill and fast. Trust me you’ll dream of ABS when you smack into the rear end of someone else and good luck if you need to safety it again. your vin tells a mechanic exactly what your car is and that’s how they find out if something related to safety is missing. As well if you do hit someone and your insurance company finds out you removed your ABS do you think they will give you anything for your car? Its your car and you choose but think about it.
Mine never worked since I bought the car. Its a pain in the ass to bleed properly and I’ve heard that the abs system in our cars, when working, actually isn’t very good.
If yours isn’t working then yeah you maybe better off to remove it but don’t hit anyone and don’t let the insurance know you did. No the ABS on my car works like a champ and i can remember 2 different times in the last 4-5 years it saved my ass. had to stop hard in wet conditions did its job my car is still on the road to prove it.
An other plus side to ABS is much bigger brakes and calipers then NON ABS.
well i removed it when i swirched to 300zx calipers which wouldnt work with the abs anyway because no sensors…if your doing this it makes sense
The sensors for the ABS are in the wheel hubs, not the calipers.
Ya one reason for me deleting it is one I did 5 lug conversion and new hubs have not abs sencor port and are not compatable with abs because jdm and also swaped engine so when my new engine got wired in the abs got left out so its not doing anything just sitting there on one of the bolts and I also have toe delete fittings kicking around
oh yea…it was my 5-lug conversion…that why…so long ago cant remember
I was just going to say i have 300zx brakes and my abs works great on both. but that said im running 4 lug.
