ABS System Removal, ... just some questions Options

[KAOS]

Doing a swap to a 3SGE rev3 - not sure if either of the new 3SGE ECU's I have are set up for an ABS system, so I have some questions...

(1) Has anyone successfully removed their ABS System from their car?

(2) If so, did you have to replace all the hubs, etc - or did you just rip out the controller from the engine bay and re-run brake lines?

(3) Any significant weight loss gained by shedding the ABS?

(4) If I kept the ABS - would it still work with the new ECU without being reprogrammed?

Thanks guys;

1 yes, a couple of times.
2 not the hubs, just some lines/fittings and change to a non-ABS master cylinder.
3 5-10 lbs I would guess, nothing crazy.
4 the ABS has a separate ECU, the engine ECU has nothing to do with the ABS.
