what would i need to put ABS on my non ABS 1995 prelude?

dont bother. im not sure exactly, but im sure you would need everything from the computer, wiring harness, hubs, axles, brakes... etc. just sell your lude and buy one with ABS. or, if your really smart... you can pump your brakes instead of locking them up. <------ thats all abs does. it pumps the brakes for you.

I'm not thinking it's worth it...I believe the modulator alone will run you over $1000.

I've heard abs works against you on the track, I can imagine if you know and can keep it away from the locking point of your setup then you should be able to stop faster whereas abs tries to pump the brakes.

if you track in a rain-prone part of the country its a life-(car)-saver.

This is untrue. ABS modulates the piston pressure on your pad to prevent lock up, and to allow for greater modulation. Locking up your brakes is not the bets way to stop as you lose control of your steering; ABS allows you maintain directional control of the car. The ideal braking behavior is threshold braking; where you apply the greatest amount of pressure to the system, while keeping it from locking up. PS- the brakes do not stop the car, the tires do... so if you have a shortcoming in braking distances, you should consider stickier tires.
