I wanna remove my abs system in my 03 dc5. anyone know how to do so.? need information so i can.

 

why? anyway, if you must, take out the abs fuse, and it goes to basic 4 wheel disc., however, you will need the tech manual to reset the codes it will most likely kick after you disconect the system.
i lost my last car due to the fact i didn't have abs,if it were me i would leave it alone unless you are going to enter a ONE MAKE RACE or something!
good luck!

Get yourself a Helm's manual. After that you'll be good to go. Oh yeah, i hope this car will be a "track ONLY" car. ABS is a lot safer on the streets.

Good luck...late

 

i dunno..the stock ABS system is pretty crappy...doesnt stop the car for beans, and its too sensitive..or maybe its cuz the OEM tires suck?

 

Its going to be a track car i already has a R for my daily driver. I cant stand ABS. Its the worst thing they can put on a car. where can i find a helms manual?

 

It's the stock tires for sure. If you're comparing the RSX ABS to the newer Type R ABS, i believe the 2000-2001 ITR's have a 4 channel ABS system. The RSX Type S only have a 3 channels ABS system.

If your'e not happy with the ABS why not just try new brake pads first?

But anyways, here's the link to order the Helms manual:

Good luck with whatever you do! ...late

 

I just need to get rid of the stupid abs it sucks dont need and dont want it on my ride. i can control a car very good without abs and it sucks with abs.

 

do you have stock tires? I am guessing so.........when I put the stock tires on, ABS irritates the crap out of me, but with any other tire, I have never had it come on

 

I have Pirelli P7000 tires on one set of rims and the other set of rims has the Neo tires.

 

I'm wondering would that still be considered street legal after removing the ABS from an ABS equiped vehicle? I know one thing though, if your insurance ever found out you removed your ABS they probably won't cover your car any longer or raise your premium up real high.

Cars with ABS, airbags, and other "saftey devices" allows for discounts through different insurance companies.

I guess this doesn't apply to you since your Type S will be a track only car.

 

Its a Race Car its paid for. done have insurance on it. it sits in a trailer. only drive on tracks.

 

It must be nice to have a lot of money! Make sure you get some pictures up when you're done with the DC5 race car.

 

With stock tires I had constant ABS chatter going into parking lots or whatever, but wtih Azenis Im lucky to hear it once on an auto-x track when I do a sudden turn around (improperly). It has alot to do with the surface consistency, too.

I believe someone posted tests that found the ABS was shorter distance 60-0 than non-ABS on the EP. but you might have more experience modulating the brakes manually than the average person.

If you're race only, a Helms is essential (try to download it while its available). And it plainly states where the fuse and wiring and computer is for ABS.

Ask about ABS removal over in the auto-x/roadrace section... Im sure they have some good insights about the pros n cons.

...and let us know how it turns out!

 

Thanks Hatch2k

You would be better off using the ITR as the track car and the RSX-S for a daily driver.

 

The R is stock. and i got hella track parts for the S already. and its payed for and i owe like 4 grand still on the R.
