Not sure what you are reffering to for the "Nissan Motorsports ABS fix"...and I cannot speak for them but... It really depends what that team is running currently...and its usually

It really depends what that team is running currently...and its usually up to the team and that teams budget.
It may also be something else...without "knowing" its all a guess...could have been a bad shock or other shock issue, too agressive a pad, bleed wrong, not enough cooling...could have been many things.
Again true racing brake setups using ABS are not cheap...and running in that particular series or Conti...if you are not using what you can be using...you could be leaving a lot on the table.
It may come down to budget....but without knowing what the team is currently running or what the circumstances were...its all speculation.

Back in St Petersburg, I was talking with one the SFR mechanics and he told me that Nissan was committing long term to the series and providing support to both 370Z teams. One of the first things that Nissan was supposed to provide was a fix to the ABS issues that both teams (and many others that track their cars) have seen.
