Disable pep8 check in syntastic for python files

Question

I work with enough code that does not follow pep8 (that I cannot fix) and would like syntastic to not use the pep8 syntax checker. Any way to disable it?

Answer 1

Adding to Christians answer. You can also add specific checker args:

let g:syntastic_python_flake8_args = "--ignore=E501 --max-complexity 10"
