    Abs?

    Sorry for the stupid question, I need to know do I have ABS? What do I look for to determin if I have abs or not. I have a 325ic (02/87) and I'm looking at ordering a new master cylinder. AZAutohaus listed MCs for ABS or no ABS and I have no idea which one I have.

    Thanks for any help.

    Look for the ABS unit more or less below the air box in the engine bay.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      I don't think any M20B25 powered E30s sold in the US came without ABS

              how to did close the lines off when you removed the ABS

              isnt there a T-valve or something like that i need so the fluid is still able to recirculate?

                I didn't remove it, it just isn't working because of the diff size rings.

                  please post something when you figure out how to get it working. my abs "works" but it gives the pedal a kick when coming to a stop, every time... unless the abs light is on (maybe 1 of every 10 starts).
