Please help.

Hey guys. I've posted before about steering and ABS problems. Does anybody know what could be wrong?

well, I have figured out the steering problem.... Drove my friends G35 yesterday, and the same stuff happens... It looks like low profile tires are the cause of it... But I still can't understand what's wrong with my ABS... Unlike the steering, ABS didn't work from the day I got the car.

G35 = <3

Regarding ABS... its pretty hard to trigger ABS on dry pavement unless stomping on the brakes HARD. If you are just testing your car out for ABS... don't do it on dry pavement. not even in the rain in an empty parking lot. It'll just cause excessive tire wear, and possibly warped rotors, etc etc.

Since you live in Cali, there's no chance you can test in snow. Gotta find some where slippery to test it for sure.

I thought ABS only came with the V6's for Gen1's. I don't have ABS on mine.
