Is there an easy way to add adjustable brake bias without screwing the abs up? I feel that my car just has too much front bias and would like to get the rear involved a bit more....

Shocks? Are you kidding me?

I don't think there's going to be an easy way to adjust the brake bias and keep the ABS. As far as I can tell, all that stuff is built into the abs unit. You've just got the lines going from the master cylinder and reservoir to the ABS unit, then lines coming off the ABS unit for each channel, and in between there's a pump, some valves, and.. something else?? Whatever else is in there, the units were not really made to be taken apart very much, so I think you'd have a hard time modifying it.

Search the track section for brake bias, it has been talked about and done.

Easiest way is to change your pads.

That sounds like that might be an easy fix.... at least I'll give that a try first!

Careful though. When you brake harder, weight transfers to the front. If you add a drastic amount of bite to the rear of the car and the weight is transferred forward, you are more likely to lock up the rear.
