Akebonos not up to heavy track use!

ya, keepin' it under the magic $30k. All reviews are very positive though, for the street anyway. The stopping distances are very impressive, fade minimal, dunno what's not to like for street use, anyway. Let dem moddies buy dem Brembos!

In repeated braking tests they start acting up on about the 4th or 5th run depending on ambient temperature. Not true brake fade, rather brake malfunction with ABS skip. Happens to me all the time at Auto-X, sucks b@lls.

sounds like it. Pity ABS can't be turned off. Hmm...or can it. Where are the electronics propellerheads when you need them.

ABS can be turned off but not easily (plus it's really nice for Auto-X). The problem is that the fuse module covers multiple components, including power windows and VVEL. I was going to buy a new fuse module and hack it up to cut just the ABS fuse wire but I never got around to it.
