Abs problems on Evo 8

Looking for a little bit of help here, when I start up my Evo everything seem fine till I start driving! Once I start doing the first bit of corner braking the pedal just pulsates with very little braking efficiency then the abs light will come on after that the brakes work ok again only the abs won't kick in. If I turn the car off and on again the light will stay off until I start braking again. Sorry for the short novel, I've tried searching the forum but can't see anyone with the same symptoms. Any advice would be appreciated, cheers Stewart

dont think I've heard of anyone selling the rings for later cars separate, but im not sure if thats just the fronts. Rears might be the same size throughout the evos. You'll have to research that

what I do know is I used the abs ring off my evo 5 rear shaft, when I fitted an evo 9 rear rs diff and shafts, and the ring swopped over

At the start of November I had the same problem with mine. Took it to Mitusubishi dealer to get diagnosed and they told me a fault code had come up for the o/s/r and it was either the ABS sensor or the ABS ring. Took it apart and the ring had split. I replaced the ring myself (from UK parts direct) and once built back up it still did the same. I then replaced the ABS sensor (from Ross Sport) and it still did the same as before. Another trip to Mitsubishi showed a fault code,this time for the n/s/r. Took that side apart and again the ring had split. On 15th this month I replaced that ring and the car was fine up until today when the light had come on and stayed on.There was no pulsing from the pedal after the 2 rings had been replaced. God only knows what's going on with my ABS!!!
