ABS leaking?
What is needed to get rid of the ABS system? My ABS is leaking a whole lot of brake fluid (brake master drains in about 1-2 days) and I'm guessing it can't be good to have brake fluid on your turbo... Thanks, any help is appreciated!

I just took the ABS pump out of my car. It was leaking as bad as yours. There was a write up somewhere on how to do it. You need a flaring tool and some other little parts to reroute the lines. My brakes feel fine.

Or you gcould just but the ABS bypass kit that is a bonafide Mazda part. They knew that thier $h!t would break. I have it, took about an hour to remove ABS, install bypass kit and bleed the brakes.
Call Mazdatrix for the kit, they have the PN's.

I have the kit installed, took about an hour to remove ABS pump, install bypass kit and bleed the brakes.

Ask them for the SS hose with it. The Mazda kit comes wwith a rubber hose and an aluminum block, the "upgrade" replaces the rubber hose with a SS braided one.
Tell them that Joe Breese sent you and you'll get to pay double price!
