Default ABS System Starts Hopping and SLIP light is on?!

Well I just recently finished installing my APS TT. Recently meaning.. I actually got it running fine tonight holding ~8Ib boost... kind of.. you can read more in FI forum about that :P

Anyways, here is my question. After I took my car off the jackstands (yes i did it in my garage on jackstands lol), I noticed the slip light was on.

Heres the strange thing, my vdc-off and slip light stays on all the time, and for some reason everytime I start up the car and start moving forward, my ABS goes nuts and starts pumping the brakes for like 3 seconds..

Any idea?

I noticed my brake fluid is slightly low but only by maybe 1/2 inch on the reservoir.

Did you disconnect the steering shaft and move the wheels or steering gear cause if you did it has to go to nissan and be put on the consult daignostic machine.I did the same thing when putting on my greddy twins but i still havent been to the dealer yet.They have to reprogram the yaw control and the car should only do this on almost locked steering turns for a few seconds untill the slip light comes on.

It shouldnt be more then about $90 bucks,man its a pain in the **** when it happens,but one way to stop it is turn off the vdc and drive straight or just drive very slow when turning and it stops in about 50 feet.

oh really 90$ isnt bad. Wonder if they would align my damn steering wheel, i keep trying to get it to sit straight when my wheels are straight..no luck lol drivin crooked wheeled at the moment. I shouldnt be anticipating the ABS to start hopping unexpectedly while driving should I, only once at startup correct?
