Re: calling all brake experts!!
Well you would be the only one to tell us if it really has ABS I'm not 100% familiar with the Canada model but it should have a motor with brake lines going in on the left up from the air intake. If it does not than no you don't have it. if you don't than the MC 7/8 is great you dont need to change that but you should change the Prop Valve to the 40/40 from a 2000 Si model. you can have rear disc without it but to get the right power from them is to have the 40/40 prop valve. You should reach out to a guy I believe his user name is "The Brake Expert" I might be wrong but he helped me a lot.

Re: calling all brake experts!!
The 2 door EXs (canadian Sis) had 4 wheel ABS, even though they had rear drums. Our SiR coupes are supposed to be ABS and are definately 4 wheel disc (this is somewhat odd because the US Si coupes (same as Canadian SiR) did not have ABS as an available option. ABS civics don't use a normal prop valve, its basically just a splitter. My advice would be to check with Honda and see if they have a listing for a '99 - '00 SiR with ABS. The biggest thing that confuses me are the small front brakes. Honda has always used large front brakes on all ABS civics.
