I have a 94 si with abs and I wanted to remove it
can someone let me know some pro's and con's about deleting abs
if there is a link can someone point me in the right direction please!

 

I wish my 92 civic si had abs, but to each there own. If you do remove it, lmk what you want for components.

 

hahaha really well if i do remove it ill let you know! buut heads up i live in cali lmao

 

I'm sure there are pros and cons to keeping or removing, depending on where you live and how you drive. For you being in LB, ABS probably doesn't do much for you, as opposed to someone who lives where it's icy 6 months a year. I'm sure removing it would be similar to adding it, minus the wiring headache.

Disregard, I don't want to go through the hassle of swapping out all hardlines, ABS fuse box w/wiring, ABS modulator, ABS sensors, etc.

If you want to do it right you'll be swapping all the hardlines (major pain in the *** and requires dropping the front subframe), master cylinder, booster and prop valve.

 

ABS will save you from yourself on the street, you can't predict what other drivers are going to do. It's a great thing to have for daily driving, and if you think only people with "no skillz" have ABS, then I hate to break it to you but going to the 7-11 down the street isn't a race on a racetrack. Take advantage of ABS on the street and if you really are serious about racing at the track then simply pull the fuse when you get there and disable it.

 

ABS is very important on track or off. While most seem to prefer not having it, ABS will help you guarantee the minimum stopping distance your wheels and brakes can deliver every time, all while maintaining traction. (IE Steering) Older Honda ABS systems are pretty crude, meaning unrefined, laggy, and won't stand up to tracking as well as others.

Newer Ford and even some of the older (97-up) Chryslers have excellent factory anti-lock. Just a comment.

 

okay well with that in mind, i think i might keep the ABS!
but i do a the abs light on so how can i make sure my abs is working at full potential?

 

If your ABS lamp is on you will need to trouble shoot the ABS system. The system will not operate at all until the detected malfunction is corrected. Are you familiar with jumping the Service Check Connector for engine codes? If not, go here:

Instead of the engine lamp, look at the ABS lamp. ABS codes are read the same as engine codes, a 1 second blink equals ten, and a short blink (less than a quarter second) is a one. Add them together and place a dash between the numbers. For example:

4 long blinks of 1 second plus 1 short blink equals 41, place a dash between them to get code 4-1, which is for the RF wheel speed sensor.

 

bump thanks for the info!
