 is it behind the glove box?
how easy is it to get out
does it just unplug

passenger footwell.
peel the carpet back and you\'ll see a metal plate. remove that and ecu is under there.
ld be hold on by 2 or 3 bolts.
just unplugs

ps no signs of getting ecu back soon, so if anyone else can help with that?

Yeah the ABS ECU is to the left of the engine ECU.

No you don\'t lol it was an option extra I think as I know Prof doesn\'t have it either, to be fair it just gets in the way of the spark plugs!

im not surprised i not got abs, my fc is the GT-R version, one of the basic ones.
GT* (basic), GTR, GTU GTX (high spec)
or sth like that. cant remember the differances. apart from abs, cruise control?

Does that make my FC top of the range then? Sun roof, cruise control + ABS. If only I had air con I guess I would be King!

Im running Sun roof (UK spec - jap spec don\'t have them) Cruise control - which is AWESOME lol + ABS to break and generally get in the way of the spark plugs lol Aircon is a silly idea on these cars as it just sucks all the power and is just generally really heavy lol

same for sunroof, cruise control and abs :Giggle

I wouldn\'t mind not having a sunroof, as it stiffens the chassis, so I don\'t call it a sunroof, its an \'active roof spoiler\' for extra downforce equally on all wheels :2Rolleyes

I wouldn\'t worry, I have an electrically folding down roof - that\'s much heavier! And cruise control!
