i have the OBX bar. i dont have abs, but i have the AD22vf's. i dont see why it would have a problem with the ABS though?

that's what i'm sayin, i dont think it will matter w/ ABS. I don't know if my NX has it, but i'm using a stillen front strut tower brace from a B14.

On B14's the abs unit is near the passenger strut tower. This really makes installing underdrive pulleys a beeyotch. It could interfere with some stb's, or camber plates.
Not sure about nx but I would think the same issues are present.

what part of it is near the passenger strut tower? i would have just assumed that the ABS stuff was near the brake booster and master cylinder in front of the driver. im not calling you a liar or anything, just curious. is the brake booster and master cylinder on the passenger side on B14's?

Its the abs relay box. Also the abs actor but not as much. (br-35 and br-38 in teh fsm) Makes loosening the belts a pita. I think its the same in b13's too, cause bb and mc are place.

That is right. There has to be some one with ABS and a strut bar installed? HELP

can you move the box a little, like maybe enough to get the bar on?

No. it cannot be moved. I don't understand, don't you have a NX2000? So then you know where the ABS sensors are. On the right side strut tower bar.
