Will the Bosch M4 system work with the zr1 oem active sensors in the hubs? Obviously the M4 is the way to go (but it is expensive for what ultimately is a street car)

I would still love to find a way to use the far cheaper oem zr1 brake controller and abs pump and trick the controller into thinking its standalone rather than looking for information coming from the zr1 BCM with all its active body control that is not applicable in this application.

The stock ZR-1 active wheel speed sensors on the SKF brearing that you have will work with the Bosch M4 ABS system.

Not sure of a cheaper system other than the Conti system and it will work with the ZR-1 bearings also.

Thanks Mark that confirms what I thought. I will take a look at the Continental system implementation for another option. The cost of a standalone tweek-able abs system sure is a big hit to the wallet.

However with the efficiency of carbon ceramics the need for me to include an abs system (solely for vigorous track use) is far easier than justifying such a significant cost (on a build) just for my sedate road usage.

Your knowledge, input and feedback is without a doubt some of the most respected and sort after on this planet for a very good reason. Its a pleasure to just watch, listen and learn.
