Turbobrick Neutral Newbie May 2, 2002 Author Share May 2, 2002 I think it was called ABS Trak, no sure how it worked though......like TV Media product IMHO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbobrick Neutral Newbie May 3, 2002 Author Share May 3, 2002 Wondering is the ABS Trak done up by C&C for the owners? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear May 3, 2002 Share May 3, 2002 Its probably subcontracted out by C&C before the customer gets his car, lots of mits and protons didnt come with standard ABS that time. You know its there when there is a little sticker on the bootlid or at the side of the car... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seven11 Neutral Newbie May 5, 2002 Share May 5, 2002 So where can we get ABS Trak installed if our cars do not come factory fitted? If C&C fix it up on the cars they import, I guess it must be quite reliable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now since most (or ALL) new cars are ABS equipped, not sure whether there are still 3rd party ABS around... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbobrick Neutral Newbie May 6, 2002 Author Share May 6, 2002 Point to note that ABS Trak may not be a "real" ABS which is modulated by electronic ECU plus hydraulic pump. I'll dig deeper and see whether I can find any info on aftermarket ABS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbobrick Neutral Newbie May 6, 2002 Author Share May 6, 2002 "An FTC Administrative Law Judge has found that the "ABS/Trax" add-on braking system marketed by Automotive Breakthrough Sciences, Inc. and ABS Tech Sciences, Inc., and purported to function just like factory-installed antilock brakes (ABS), does not, in fact, sense the rate of rotation of the car's wheels or the degree of wheel slip to correct such slippage" Think about the dangers those who "think" they have ABS might have been in!

Turbobrick Neutral Newbie May 6, 2002 Author Share May 6, 2002 Guyver probably can open door and stick out his Nike Air and do M-ABS much better! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabiaman 1st Gear May 6, 2002 Share May 6, 2002 Tks Davey.. that means the ABS Trak is a road hazard more than a help in emergency and "low margin of error" situations. *yurks!* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
