Default ABS or Not

I just purchased a 93 Integra from a local person... The car needs a passenger side cv axle and im not sure if the car has abs or not... The gauge cluster has a light for ABS but i think the cluster is from a GSR model b/c the engine is a B18A1... Also the cluster redline at 8,000... Any1 help me out on this?

You can find out very easily by taking off any of the tires.

Look for the brake lines traveling to the caliper. If you have ABS, there will be a second line running down the arm that connects to the rotor assembly, and it's similar in appearance to the brake lines.

If your still not sure, and you have to take the axle off anyway, you can visualy confirm the ABS system by looking where the rotor assembly meets up with the outer axle boot. The ABS equiped axles will have a metal ring with teeth, it looks exactly like a gear. The sensor rides above this ring, and you'd have to detach the sensor line from the suspension to get the axle off anyway.

Hope that helps you out!

If u want to find out the easy way just look inside ur engine bay and see if u have the ABS motor, u should see it and it should say something like ABS motor relay, and it should have some brake lines going to it.

Oh ya, look at the engine. Another easy way is there will be a second brake fluid reservoir for the abs system.
