an abs computer, abs modulator, an abs master cylinder, abs wiring harness, abs sensors (4) and a whole lot of work.
basically a **** load more than you will ever want to deal with...and its not worth it.
Want abs? sell your car and get one that has it already

I know this has been debated before on honda-tech, what hasn't, really? It has been shown that you can have more braking control and with a good driver, you can stop a car with no abs faster than a car with it. Yeah yeah, I know, some computer releasing pressure at 1000's of a second. . . blah blah blah.
I have driven two identical cars, one with, and one without, and I had better braking under all conditions than I did with abs.
Also, if abs is so superior, why do all race cars have no abs? Huh
