Nice car to start with. Non sunroof car! Also if you want to keep the ABS just relocate it in the car under the storage compartments. You will still be able to have great brakes for those panic stops or track days.
Cool project. |
Any good write up or pics of anyone doing the abs in the storage bin. Interested to see this
|
its not hard to do man. i can put it anywhere you want.

basic instructions. 1) remove the ABS pump 2) remove all hard brake lines from MC to ABS pump 3) remove brake line from MC to rear Tee. 4) remove hard lines in the front to where the hard line connects with the rubber line. Once is removed find a nice place to put it like the storage bin, if you cut the bottom of the plastic out of the bin it opens up enough to mount the pump or a 5 gallon cell like I did. 5) Run new brake lines from MC to ABS pump then to tee and front wheels. 6) pull wires through the passenger side harness and reconnect the pump. I think I had to splice a couple of wires. really it is easy. Wha la done. It really is not too bad, after all the stuff you have done this should be cake. |
Nice man love to see fds getting a clean up

Attachment 717601 Attachment 717602 harness almost all the way out Attachment 717603 harness out Attachment 717604 some shots of the interior harness Attachment 717605 Attachment 717606 pulling out the sound detning stuff and then i found out that the car was in a fire Attachment 717607 Attachment 717608 Attachment 717609 then i started delooming the harness Attachment 717610 Attachment 717611 Attachment 717612 |
Depending on your plans - you're in for a treat with that wire relocation stuff.
it doesn't "extend" well. if you run some basic calcs, you'll quickly realize that the harnesses are junk and undersized and poorly designed. the '02 harnesses aren't much better (got a huge box full of lhd & rhd complete harnesses). |

Great start, good luck with your build.

Good luck, interested to see the wire tuck process!

Ill take as many pics as I can of the process. If u want and pics of anything specific just let me know.

Maybe you should just do a painless harness man. It would be so much easier and look better. You are going to be running a haltech platinum 2000. I will send you the links.

I'm sorry I replied too fast... I had a few PM's asking to buy the body harnesses and whatnot..
So I halfassed thought you too wanted to buy them - sorry about that. Yes, of course, I'd be happy to share the lessons I've learned doing this close to this (higher degree however). They were very simple really. In short, run the trunks as you see fit then ensure they're of proper gauge for the devices they're going to power / drain. Something I've got going on in the works in a small power distribution management device. Using an n-channel FET to turn things on and off. it allows someone, like yourself, to ditch the relays in the OE harness(es). a result of that is taking heat away from the ignition! there are others like a better control over design, layout et all but thats for another time. again, sorry for the previous hasty reply. |
Or you can buy my abs delete kit and call it a day!!! Keep up the good work its gonna be clean under there now.

You obviously didnt read what the OP is doing to his car. I daily my car and I am running my abs kit along with over 30 members not to mention those like Brent Dalton ,Fritz, John Cambridge and Hinsonsupercars who have been running abs kits long before this and they have no problems. ABS is a great thing OP, will save your but one day if in the rain or need that hiccup to control your car. On a daily vehicle that is used to commute "NORMAL" way you dont need ABS unless your right foot is made of lead and all the car sees is WOT on the street and you have to absolutely stop at the light. |

As far as this whole abs delete thing the car will only be driven once or twice a week if that. It is by no means a dd. I will be running and bending all my own brake lines so that none of them will be seen.
