Default abs removal
Right question is i was planning on removing the abs on the project car not worried about the brakes as this has got ap 6pots fronts and ap 4pot rears but what are insurance companies like with this? Does it massively put the price up

Not sure about insurance but my ra had no abs as standard and much prefered it over my newage with abs which bluntly is crap! I have 6pot alcons brakes are fantastic but if its a bit greasy or icy then brakes are non existent due to over active abs

Unfortunately there is no definitive answer as it'd depend on each individual insurer, but we'd certainly have companies who'd be ok with it.
