I just lowered my 2000 Integra Type R and now when I Brake I can feel ABS Shudder through the pedal. During Medium braking.

Any Ideas?

When I lowered my Honda Oddessy a few years ago I had to re-adjust the ABS Sensor on the rear Axle but this car doesn't seem to have this.

Are there any adjustments or is there anything I need to do to my brake system because I've lowered the car 15mm.

 

Did you lower it using just the springs or a full spring+shock combo? If just the springs, could it be possible that your shocks are not damping the springs enough that it triggers the ABS to kick in (as it feels the road being un-even and rough)? I've never heard of any lowered R having problems w/ ABS...

p.s. do you own both DC2-R and DC5-R?

 

The springs I used were 14k on Tein-RE Adjustable Shocks. These seem to ride quite hard compared to the original springs fitted to these here in Australia.

No I don't own both these cars just a DC2. I just grabbed the username.

14k all the way around? wow, that's gotta be one harsh ride for a daily driver. what's your shock setting at?

 

It is bit harsh, Ive got 14K front and 10K rear, should I take the ABS fuse out?

 

hey mine seems to be fine with the same setup...

how much did u lower the car? i don't know the exact measurement of mine, but i lowered it about one index finger width...

 

The front just 1 finger, and the rear maybe 1/2 finger. 320mm from centre to the fender for front , 314mm for rear

 

Would the front wheel sensor happen to be loose?

Thanks FSTASNTZ, I donno, where is the sensor & how to check it? Thanks

 

well mine is about 316mm in the front, and 320mm in the rear i think i need to lower it by 10mm or so... in the rear...
so far i set it at 8, and 8 clicks, 4 and 4, and 8 in the front and 10 in the rear...
the last settings seems pretty good...
