What do you mean by this, that is going to brake more from the rear?? I have Alcon/stasis kit 6 piston on the front with the SBS race pad and on the rear the stock brembos with Performance Friction 01, if this helps on anyway...just sharing my setup to see if it influences somehow...

Thanks for your input! All are welcome.

The ABS module is also an active brake proportioning valve. It controls line pressure front to rear based on various sensor inputs including steering angle, speed, yaw rate, etc.

Basically, the ABS system is top notch in these cars and it's kind of silly to eliminate it.

With the power turned off though, I'm not sure if it would promote or reduce rear bias. I have to imagine the OEM would make it so in the fail-safe mode, the system would reduce rear bias.

i've driven evos on track when the abs malfunction while on track. the rear will lock up much more easy than my RS without abs.

Thanks for your input, I hope that this thing gets solved. Freaking gremlin!

Half your net is behind you in your rear window area. So my concern is that since its a "window net" i dont think its covering enough of your front window section. Get some feedback from a few credible sources. Btw, do you by any chance race in NASA ST, or SCCA T2?
