XXXXCA070 module fitted to my 2013 86. Works great, easy mod. Got a used module off ebay. My car is supercharged so track mode is definitely more fun than stock!

Apologies if restating a previously asked question, but I may have found someone to buy this part from. They are selling the whole ABS unit, which appears to have this attached. Does this sound correct?? They won't split this component off, and I don't want to end up paying for thewrong thing accidentally. Ty!

Yes it seems like most of us bought the whole unit, then removed the module once it arrived.

Thanks for the help & the advice! Just performed the swap, seems to be working brilliantly as intended. It threw a bunch of codes/lights despite me disconnecting the battery, but as stated the lights disappeared after a very short distance. Have cleared the codes, hopefully they don't return.

So I have a MiG vsc eliminator.
It doesn’t seem to be playing well with my aim mxp dash.

Had anyone seen this before?

I can’t pull the MiG because I don’t have an ebrake. Any other options? Preferably that can be implementer by Thursday?

update: It was the AIM dash, not the MiG.

Reviving an old thread again:

From a hardware perspective, is there any benefit to upgrading a 2014 ABS module to a later one? I am running a motec, so i'm not worried about the software side of things. I can program any year ABS program I want.

Thanks in advance.

The benefits I felt when upgrading to a 2017 and up abs module was the VSC and traction control in sport mode was more relaxed than the older one and you can be more aggressive around corners before any intervention.

Absolutely. I did this a few months back and the difference is amazing. The earlier VSC settings are way too restrictive.

If anyone needs an ABS pump for MT 86, I have mine listed on Ebay. Used on 2015 FRS for 2 years, plug and play. This forum page led me to this solution for the Track Mode on the car and it really made a difference. https://www.ebay.com/itm/146530215691

Is there any improvement in ABS performance with the new module?

On my car (track only) I use pedal dance (via GJP Trac Box) exclusively, but if there is an improvement to be had in ABS performance then this would be worthwhile.
