Re: WTF is this part? (Jeffvette)
The important question to ask is whether or not the car works adversly without it.
If you can't tell a difference, its extra. ;)

NoWorries has a good point...if you think it works, then it does. If you don't think it works, then who needs it anyway? :D

Looks like the ABS unit from underneath the left storage compartment.

Hey,
I,m as cost conscience as the next guy , but I dont think there are any "extra" parts in the brake system. That being said It looks like a Gal bladder to me :D :D :D

Re: WTF is this part? (Red91C4)
Is this a new game we are going to start playing.....WTF is this part, where someone has a picture posted of some misc part on the car. Geeesh. I will lose that one for sure, unless it is motor, tire, brake pad, steering wheel......
Seriously - no clue - but hope it isnt a safety item. :cheers:

Re: WTF is this part? (BrentDev)
I've never seen mine in person yet, but I agree with the others, it's the ABS unit. If you took it out, I would replace it. If it was just laying around, then you can frame it and hang it on the wall.

It is the early style Flux Capacitor. Very rare. You should either chrome it and put it back or sell it on ebay.

Re: WTF is this part? (Jeffvette)
Not sure what it does, but must have been fun finding it hidden on the car and then removing it cautiously! You must take it completely apart. Would not advise driving around airport security or send in mail for repairs!

This came out of a ZR1 ? Was anything attached to it ? If not, someone may have disconnected it because it was not working correctly.

Was the ABS system. Seems like that thing would be hard to disable.

Just checking to see how smart (and some of the smart butt remarks) I could get from the crowd.
Good job for those that got it.
And no, it didn't come out of my car :D
