removing ABS - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #52841 11 posts Started by Muggs
Hi, everyone, I'm working on a partial tuck on my engine bay, and i want to remove all the ABS components. I'll have the motor out this winter, so I'll have plenty of room to work. Is it as simple as removing the actuator and all hard lines and capping everything off? Or will I need components from a non-ABS car?
Any input would be very helpful.

you will need a new non-abs master cylinder and about 5-6 new lines. All the lines that are different are about $80 from the dealer.

Post pictures of your tuck.
Thanks for the info.

I'll be sure to put up some pics as I make progress.
So an unusual circumstance came up and I decided to remove my non-working ABS today. I wanted to do this for years now..

so much more room over there now. That's were the oil filter relocation is going to go wink.gif

total cost, about $80 + a non-ABS master cylinder.

Exactly where I'm mounting my remote filter too.

I hope it's as easy as you make it look.
what is the advantage of removing it?
or just to relocate the oil thingy

Honestly, i think its safer to have abs. I saw a video of the difference between abs and no abs. But then again atleast you have more space. Once you put in the new master cylinder tho, make sure u fill with enuf brake fluid and bleed the brakes just so that all the air gets out..

p.s Also bench bleed the master cylinder

One BAD ASS CAR!!!
Im working on doing this conversion, i was wondering if anyone knew , possibly about the abs sensor wiring, from the hub, where does it lead to?
Nvm i got it. Anyways does anyone have the part numbers for the non abs lines?
All the ones u need.
