pedrosixfour Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Before I fit the 1JZ engine to my '94 SZ-R track car I would like to do a few things in the engine bay while the extra space is available. Apart from fitting polybushes to the steering rack, filling a few redundant holes in the firewall and removing the last of the sound deadening I would like to delete the ABS pump and the charcoal canister. I've been running on track without an ABS main fuse for the last year but being a track car this is a better option to save a few extra kilos. Can anyone instuct me on the safe removal of these two items, the ABS pump in particular, and any extra parts I might need to complete the job. As I said the base car was a non turbo 1994 SZ-R. Thank you in advance for any advice or guidance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedrosixfour Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 Thanks Nic, but thats not quite the info I am after mate. No one has ever accused me of being unable or unwilling to take things apart! Its the second half of the job I seem to neglect! My problem lies in the fact that to run the car without ABS I seem to recall a small bit of extra/different piping is needed to fill the gaps left by the pump deletion. I'm just trying to get a definitive list of what is required before I start in at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_jekyll Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 hi mate , personally the way i would rid of the abs would be to start from scrath to be on the safe side. id get a full non abs system sevo and pipes and just put that in , unless the abs servo has the same rates as the non abs servo, in that case i would just get new hard lines fron the servo each corner.

Chris Wilson Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Master cylinder needs the front brake section plumbing to the two front calipers, and the rear brake section to the rear calipers. Just work out the best way to achieve this with the minimum of joints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
