For once. I did not do it.

 

Do want.

 

I got it for cheap. And I got the 01+ for cheap. So I will sell it for cheap. Sean might want it too, but both of you are just going to put it in your garage and not use it.

Need to figure out all the extra parts I acquired while buying abs **** on ebay.

 

I lol'led.

Sucks about the steering wheel.

 

wait, the threads ripped off?

 

I'm not exactly sure. The steering wheel was wobbly so I pulled the airbag and the but could spin by hand. It just slides on and off.

Found a new column for cheap on Craigslist though

 

Turns out josh didn't have the bracket either. So after staring at Mobius' all morning, I didn't have a bracket to do ABS plumbing. So I plumed the line lock and new master cylinder instead.



Speaking of @Mobius check out his shock



Currently on the hunt for a spring isolator that works with gen2 xidas. May have to resort to custom making one.

ABS swap questions



-I don't have any of the 3 fuses in the upper left side. ABS, Fusible link, or stop fuse.

Can I just run fuse holders from the fuse box always hot wire?

-No idea if I have the fuses in the upper right, I have a 90, so I'm guessing I don't. Is there a good place to tap those connections off of?

-I have the brake indicator, just need to figure out which pin it is on in the gauge cluster.

-Don't have an ABS light. Was thinking about just adding an LED+Resistor and sticking it somewhere up by the dash. Or just repurpose my airbag light?

-Wheel speed sensors are simple. Just run lots of wires everywhere.

-What are the 2 in the bottom left. One is a ground? Can I just run that to any old chassis ground? And I can't tell what the one on the far bottom left is.

 

I ran my two always on power lines directly from the starter to fuses and then I made the switch power line come off of something, fule pump I think.

 

Ok, starter is easy. I have some inline fuses for that.

The blue needs to be hot during start correct?

 

So there are 3 power inputs, 10A for the ABS computer, 20A for the solenoid, and "fusible link" for the pump. The ABS computer is supposed to be hot-in-start-and-run but if you give it hot-in-run-but-not-start then all that happens is that the ABS unit resets when you start the car and takes 3-4 seconds to come back to operating condition. Not really a big deal.

So yeah, piggyback the computer off some other existing fuse (it doesn't draw anything like 10A, it's just fused at that level), and run new fuses for the solenoid and the pump. I use a 50A fuse for the "fusible link" replacement.

(BTW, "stop fuse" is just the brake lights -- I hope you have a fuse for that!)

The two bottom lefts are both grounds, I grounded it on the chassis near the bracket.

I recommend putting a switch on the power line to the ABS computer so that you can shut it off easily. Run the two diag connector wires somewhere easy to get to so that you can ground them in order to trigger the diag mode so you can clear the codes.

Actually, I'm more interested in the sensors you said you aren't using so I can buy the ABS uprights and stuff from Daddy Monk for my I'll fated MS based traction control adventure.

 

I'm too good to you guys.
I have front and rear sensors.
You have an upright to trade?

 

G probably wants the NB uprights

 

Yep, I have them.

 

Yep, I want them, and the sensors. They'll look good sitting under the workbench in my garage next to the ABS axles. ****, ive even got an NB ABS booster and master already sitting in there too. So who's gonna sell me what?

I've also got one of the front spindles/sensor/hubs off Eds MSM, I'd be nice to complete that set as well.

 

I'm not gonna sell anything until I get my **** all up and running.

 

I am also about to go down the ABS and MS traction control road. Sorry Aiden that I stole the car that you wanted the ABS box out of.

 

No worries. Josh had one locally.

I'll get it all written up when I can. You will need a VR conditioner, and some spare ms3 inputs, I'm using pt4 and pt5

 

Just read 108 pages of this over the past few days. Pretty sick dude. Makes me really miss my Miata
