HI Guys, So I Have owned the R34 for a year now , I noticed form the start that the TCS off light is always on from start-up I asked the previous owner why this was and he said that he had disabled it because it interferes with the Power FC....? It never Really bothered me because, well its fun with it off anywayz =P but the other day I locked the brakes up and this has happened to me previously I don't have any ABS lights on, on my dash but it's definitely not working and I would like to have ABS lol. So I got out the wiring diagrams and tracked down these boxes in the boot behind the seat all the wires where unplugged I mean everything the harness had also been pulled out from the wheel well, that goes down to the underside of the car now I have plugged them all back in to where I think is correct...?, as you can see in the photos. I also put the cables back through the wheel well and to the underside but I have only managed to find one connection point (which I am guessing is the rear ABS) but I can't for the life of me work out where the others go! (as seen in pic) Also after connecting up the boxes and that one wire I still don't have ABS but I don't have any warning lights in the dash and the fusses are all fine agh... Help please??

So I've had my ABS light on since i purchased my car (like 1.5 years now), i did not know if there was really anything wrong with the car because it was in absolutely great condition otherwise and the owner told me there was nothing wrong with the brakes themselves. I braked really hard one afternoon going pretty fast, no cars around at all, just misjudged a yellow light and did not think id pass safely. It was then realised that the light was actually telling the truth, as it's meant to, when all four wheels locked up on me. Luckily though it was a hot day, so i stopped sliding after 10-15 meters. I ended up with a flat-spot on my front right tyre which was very annoying, and soon after i took it to Unique Auto to get it checked up. I was told the Right Front Solenoid was stuck on open and the whole abs unit needed to be replaced (This was diagnosed with a scan tool). I guess i want to know if anyone else has been in the same position and i also wanted to know what they meant by the whole unit, like the whole assembly under the hood on the passenger side of the firewall? How much do they cost roughly used? I do not think this is the simple fuse job others have been using? I will be getting new tyres very soon and do not want another flat spot, or worse! Thanks, Jack.

R32 GTR brake master cylinder. Also has two of the lines going to the ABS unit. Was only removed because i took the ABS out of the car, the master cylinder didnt leak. Prefer Sydney buyers $50 Reply here or PM me Tim.
