Just put it on VSC sport and push it. If there isn't much around you in terms of hitting something, you should be fine.

Its a sad day for me an my 86. As suspected ABS sensor was broken and my car is stuck in limp mode which I find ridiculous just cause an abs sensor. Limp mode the motor doesnt rev above 4500 and throttle doesnt open, its speed is worst than a kia its actually dangerous. And best part abt it is that the local Toyota and Subaru in this desert im living in, both dont even have the part! It will take 1-2 month as they said and ridiculously expensive too. I really F#$$% my self this time. I hope theres a way to bypass the ecu on this one. Ok the ABS doesnt work like in any other car the motor will still run right..why have they done this its retarded its not safe at all. Ahhh at times like these I really appreciate oldschool cars like my 91 M3 just a seat,motor and wheels, no abs sensors stopping that biatch.

Yep, the good old days ...... when the brakes would go out ... one could just use the emergency brake .....

Meanwhile, have you thought about ordering a sensor on line and have it shipped via air to you ... ??

Well, that's retarded... not even my dad's 2011 M3 does that and it's had ABS failure 3 times... and my 2002 E39 has the ABS go out from time to time as well...

pull the ABS fuse and see if it gets out of limp mode...

Washed, waxed and detail. Took me a good three hours, Raven looks stunning when clean.

Installed the subaru red-stitched e-brake with great success, and while I had the console all apart...the Billet Pro Shop shortshifter.

Now I have the dreaded BPS rattle.
