Out of interest, has anyone seen, done, or know about retro fitting ABS to a Type R. I know its supposed to be nigh on impossible due to the diffs etc, but it would help, right?

How old!

If you click on Dan B's profile he hasn't been on here since 2006.

I doubt its worth the expense fitting ABS, live without and enjoy it.
Thats what driving a Type R is all about, brown pants moments!

Okay so if i push it up a couple of notches it might help keep the front wheels from locking up a little?

Cheers
