Hey guys,

I was in the process of ripping out my old loom when I realized my new one doesn't have abs. I called up the place I bought the engine from (JIS) and they told me they don’t have any other loom to exchange it with.

I know many people disengage their abs for track use however the way I see it is that I’m going to be running a turbo engine on non turbo brakes for a while, that’s already bad enough as it is. Is it a big risk not having abs? Should I go to another wrecker and see if I can swap my loom? Your opinions? Thanks Guys

i dont have any locking up issues but i have 275 tyres all round so that helps a fair bit.

if you prone to panicking when it locks on ya though abs is a wonderful invention for ya :ermm:

personally having come from your situation i would chase the loom with ABS what series engine do you have i have 2 looms 1 for S1 and one S2 and haven't decided which one im using yet

i haven't looked to see if the S2 one even has ABS as i've only just got it

but by the sounds of things your only at the beginning of the engine swap

i honestly dont know but here is a rule of thumb that i would use is part knowledge part guess work

If coilpacks are the same from the rb25de to det then i would say that there is a slight chance you can use a de loom, only problem i for see is the factory boost controller that no one uses personally he should either ring Shaun from boostworx or Brett west from graham west workshop and see what they have to say

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.
