no, the calipers are the same for ABS and non-ABS, the only difference between them is the presence of an ABS solonid that pumps the brakes for you.

So basically just ignore the speed sensor wire for the abs and they work just like normal brakes? or should stuff be removed?

When I was looking up info to do my rear disc conversion, everything that I found said that it was ok to use rears from an ABS equipped model. You just didn't hook up the ABS line.
