NICE! I just ordered the Line Lock from Summit racing. I noticed there are 2 lines for the front brakes and one for the rear. Does this mean you need 2 solenoids, one for each front brake line?



A write up on the line lock install would be gold!
I have pinned a writup of the install I did on Vosko's car in the 3'd gen FAQ section.

Check it out!

Damn, I need one of those!!!!! How much would it cost to do the line lock setup with the abs still there? Are you doing those burnouts in 1st or 2nd???



Also, have you noticed much change without the abs??? how easy do the tires lock up?

those were first gear. judge ito said i could do 2nd gear if i wanted....



lets see about $100-$120 for all the line lock stuff. $50 wilwood brake balancer. about $50 in brake lines and fittings and many hours trying to make it all work.

honestly i don't miss the ABS at all. the car stops faster. i still have to play with the brake balancer BUT after the ABS was removed i couldn't get the front tires to lock up it would just push the car forward! then ito said ok we are finishing the line lock install lol



anyway... i think its also a bit harder for me since judge ito tuned my timing map needless to say lots more power now

I noticed that your car still pulls to one side w/ the line lock... does this always happen? I was goin to get one but thought the car would just be at a stand still while initiating the burn out...

Thanks for the descriptions of line lock. I've seen that before, but as a toggle switch on the dash. Either way... f'ing cool.



Thanks -Kevin
