has anyone every tried to remove the abs in their 4th gen lude...wouldnt it be pretty straight forward?

 

the question is...why?

 

weight...make more room under the hood...

 

no one has ever removed their abs?

 

ins't it just a computer... that's not very much weight...

 

no, theres a abs unit, on the passenger side...its heavy.

 

i remember some guys who rallyed there preludes made a switch to turn it on and off. i guess to lock up the wheels around a turn? but as far as weight i think its like 40 lbs total. some guys just weld the unit to the body insted of using the mount to save weight!

 

i am going to be doing it in a week or so. you will need to get all 6 brake lines from a prelude s model or have custom ones made. you will also need a prelude s proportioning valve. i already have the lines i just have to get the valve.

 

yeah i will just use the lines that i have now...they should work shouldnt they, i need that valve then too.

 

if your car has abs you wont be able to use the lines you have due to the routing changes from abs to non abs.

 

yeah i am going to be removing my abs as well, the abs using is HUGE, and now that i have better brakes i hate having abs always kicking in when the front start to lock alittle,

like junbb1 says you need all the stuff fromt he S and the only think i am not sure about is if the lines from the S are going to screw in to the brake master cylinder

yeah they sould screw in...but you know how you got the four lines going into the abs unit, well i was thinking just get 2 "Y splicers" and run the front brakes to the Y fitting then one line to the master cylinder and the other 2 lines the same way....
