Dave,

You are to be commended on putting ABS on a Cobra. This is no easy undertaking to properly select, install, and tune these systems. When finished, you might like to share it with us. I would never have looked into Bosch for an ABS on a Cobra. Are you by chance an engineer?

Some additional food for thought. Tires. One of my initial fears in putting wide radials on a light car was turning the car into a hocky puck on the first wet road I hit because of hydroplaning (tire rides on top of water while turning, loosing contact with road surface) or skidding (tire looses traction with road surface due to braking and stops turning).

I agonized over this going over the pros & cons of 15" vs 17" tires. Went with the 17's. You wouldn't believe the difference. Screw originality when it comes to sliding into a ditch or driving home. I used Falken FK451's; 235/45ZR17 front, and 275/40ZR17 rear. Cost was only slightly more than typical 15's, but wet & dry road traction is rated AA. They're made in Japan so their availability in Australia should be good.

PS: I did an R&R in Australia from Viet Nam in '71 and fell in love with the place. So different than US. e-mail if you want to chat about it.
