where you are located, abs won't help you much unless you slam on your brakes a lot...

It's cool dude, i dont have it either. But for the factory to make things easier, they made one wiring harness per chassis. That way, they can install w/e they want, based on the demand for these features. It's easier to just have the harness ready to add on, than to have 50 different wiring harness.  So yes, we can add ABS, and the wiring will be ready to go. all we'd have to do wiring-wise is add a fuse port and a fuse  EDIT: my poor grammer This post has been edited by D-Man: Sep 4, 2008 - 10:20 AM -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!!

Unless you drive in rain or snow a lot, you really don't need ABS, I think it's an extra expense that you won't really gain any benefit from.

ABS not only for rain or snow, also to avoid accidents when you hard break in locations inexpected, for example, a dog/cat crossing a highway..... -------------------- |

Oh I know that, I'm just saying, I've had cars w/ABS and cars w/out, and truthfully I've found ABS only to be helpful in those conditions. I guess unless you slam on your brakes and skid a long way to cause enough heat for them to lock up, ABS isn't really all that great IMO. It's just more sensors to fail on you. Totally just my opinion though.

A dog or cat crossing the highway is no longer called cat /dog, they are referred to as speed bumps, greasy spots, or roadkill... or a big traffic jam
Though I do have to admit the ABS on my former Celica saved my arse a few times in emergency situations. -Terracar This post has been edited by Terracar: Sep 4, 2008 - 1:32 PM -------------------- '92 ST185, '88 ST165, '05 Galant LS, '08 Legacy

Ah, divine words from the rainy Pacific Northwest!
I'm admittedly kinda old school too, I was taught "back in the day" to pump the brakes, a habit I never really broke myself of. Think of it as "manual ABS"
