Probably because they went out of business. To even start mocking up a 2 wheel ABS, would be rather difficult without the correct wheel speed sensors. Once that part is licked then an ABS module would have to be reprogrammed to handle the weight of the car, and more importantly the correct hydraulics.

Not a minor task. I think I will stick with my foot.

I think that the ABS system takes the control away from the driver, I would think that for the average joe who dose not know or care how a car handles and works ABS is for you, but true performace I would go this straight brakes and forget ABS... My 2 JR
