Yup that's exactly the issue here. Even with my foot off the throttle, mid way through a drift if I wanted to slow down, pressing the brakes even lightly would straighten the car out, as if the VDC was switched on again.

Does removing the ABS fuse disable the Bosch yaw sensor? I really don't wanna take off the center console all the time.

It does, but the car has a natural rear bias in the braking system so without ABS you will easily lock up the rear brakes. You would have to find super wimpy pads to put in the rear.
