ive searched around a bit but it seems nobody has really talked about this much. i have a S14 and when the wiring was done, i purposely had the ABS not wired up because i dont want it and it was cheaper. , now theres no really any point to having ABS parts if you dont have ABS so id like to try to completely change my car around to non ABS..

from what i understand i need a new brake booster, and the non ABS lines which i could probly get off a junk car? am i missing anything? non ABS has one line that goes to front and 1 line that goes to rear while non ABS has 2 lines that go to front and 1 to rear right? if i did a 5 lug swap i can just get the lug and rotor so ABS or non, it wouldnt matter right? however; what about the spindles and calipers? they are currently stock, so would i be ok or would i need to get non ABS spindles and calipers as well?

if anyone could give me a heads up or any sort of advice you have, please let me know!

No, no.

Booster, spindle, caliper are the same. The ABS rings on the hubs won't matter.

Get an non-ABS master cylinder and firewall hardlines and install them. Remove the actuator and control module.
Go drive it.

Wow, that's a piece of work. The ABS has a subharness, but there's still a lot that would need to be added in the engine and dash harnesses.

its easy
s13 hardlines for front brakes fit too
hvaeit on mine, fit perfect
rear is the only change the line is about 20 dollars from dealer.

i converted mine to non-abs. super easy
