Ok.. So I have a Zenki that has ABS and a Viscous LSD. I will be using the car strictly for drifting and would like to eliminate the ABS. Will it be all right to just remove the fuse for the ABS or will I encounter any issues? I also noticed that 5 lug hubs for ABS are harder to come by and was wondering if I can just swap in non ABS front 5 lug hubs? Or should I change to a non ABS spindle and 5 lug? Also noticed that used aftermarket 2 way diffs are harder to come by and more expensive new for viscous pumpkins than for the ones for the regular open end diffs. I noticed the viscous with the ABS is slightly longer. Would I be able to swap out my viscous for a regular open end diff? Would I need a different drive shaft? If I knew I would have so many issues, I would have got a base model S14. I would like to completely remove the ABS but don't want to mess with all the hard lines and BMC.. Any help will be appreciated.

I just pull the two ABS fuses under the hood when I go out and expect to get the car sideways. Also, you should be able to just swap out the internals of the differential and be ok. But I would confirm that with someone else that has done it already.
