the added bonus of removing the fuse is disabling the abls right?

car and driver boiled their pads and fluids, it has nothing to do with ice mode. even with ice mode, the car would eventually calm down and slow the car. they went into the wal with lthe pedal sunk to the floor

I ended up disconnecting the abs fuse which Nissan put in a cluster of 3 fuses. The car with my monster front brakes had a slight rear bias. That rear bias may be the issue. If you are skilled with non abs braking that is cheapest fix.

Honestly I don't want to experience ice mode ever and I don't think pad changes are going to eliminate the issue. I may go with very expensive alternate abs system made for competition later on.
