Abs

[Martin]

Anybody got a link to a a suitable ABS unit for a MK4 Base kit Roadster (with the new spindles/hubs).

I already have the FFR Wilwood brake upgrade, FF Power steering kit (which will power the brakes), and Fortes Hydroboost set up. The car is IRS.

I'm guessing it will be expensive to buy a new FORD set up, but wouldn't mind finding the price for a new one before I start looking for junkyard options.

There has been mentioned, I think on the "other" forum, about using a BMW unit with some success. Apparently because the BMW unit was subed out to a stand alone contractor, and therefore can be easily seperated from all the other electronics.

The other option is a Bosch unit that was just released. It is for racing purposes, is stand alone, adjustable, and runs about $10,000.

Yikes - I was expecting $1000 for a new unit.

Looks like it's the junk yards for me.

X2 on the use of the 94/95 Mustang system. Easily sourced from your local pick and pull.

How well does it actually work though? Aren't these systems 'tuned' to the original car they were from?
