Default Removing ABS

Is it simple enough to Remove the ABS from my 97 STI? Is it just a case of plumbing everything up correctly?

There must be a few out there that has done this. Anybody shed somelight on this?

will you not fail an MOT?

might be a better idea to fit a switch somewhere to disable the abs, so you can still use it for the MOT ?

i do believe the imports with the dccd diff don't have abs anyway, but if they never had it from the start then it might be ok for them models??

Its more to get rid of all the abs crap inside the drivers side wing. All my other impreza's never had abs and i much prefer the feel of the brake pedal without the abs.

I'm sure one of the time attack boys removed there abs i just can't remember who.
