as far as I'm aware the mk60 is a complete standalone Marc and the dsc will only control braking and have nothing to do with throttle all within the mk60 system.I suppose that would probably be implicated in traction control within the bmw design

i don't believe the active sensors of the mk60 will read the Ford teeth on the abs ring .im going to go with the 48 tooth count .ive trawled Abs rings similar in size to the Ford outside diameters to fit the cossie.

I can get rears off the shelf and have 2 made up for the front to fit inside the hub[sorted now ] or have something made to fit on the cv joint .im removing the front shafts as I'm going 2wd.

i will be fitting the yaw sensor and I'm not sure if i have to fit the steering angle sensor, but will fit it if needed

the rear blue sensors from the e46 m3 are remarkedly close to the Ford sensor[in orientation and diameter] on the front and will only need a bit of shimming and possibly a spacer on the back welded to the arm .

i will be going dbw as well if something needs dialed in

you can buy a Stanadlone loom but it's about 1600 dollars ,so will make one of those up to suit the escos shell


this is all new to me and will take a while to get sorted ,but look forward to the day if a sensor goes you can pick one up at the local motorfactors for 20 to 30 pounds/euro and if a pump goes buy a new one .even a pressure sensor is locally supplied
