92 Si ..ok well it looks like it's either an amp or some kinda computer. It's behind the passenger seat behind the interior panles. Also when I took out the panels in the rear there was a latch type mechnism that opens up the arm rest...what is that for?

It's a 92 Si..ok so anything bad gonna happen if I rip that out?....I already don't have ABS because of axels. I don't think I wanna go through the whole taking out the whole system...isn't there something about a type S proportioning valve involved in that or something?

That is definately the ABS computer. All ABS connectors have orange plugs. If you unplug it you effectively disable the ABS system. If your ABS is out anyway it won't hurt to unplug/remove it. There should be no side effects (I have mine unplugged).

remove the abs, it's all about going all-natural. abs seemed to mess up all the fun when it's wanted most.

All you have to do is pull the E-Break up halfway while driveing for 30 sec or so, to disable the ABS.. Then you can have fun when its wanted most
