Default ANy difference between ABS and NON-ABS brake master cylinder

is there a difference?

my girlfriends brakes are going out pretty bad...the brake pedal will just go to the floor when you are trying to stop

so since the ABS is more expensive than the NON-ABS, i was thinking there shouldnt be a difference

I'm not sure if they're the same or not...but if ABS master cylinder is more expensive than non ABS master cylinder than obviously there's a difference

Master cylinders for Civics with ABS are different from those without ABS. There are differences in piston diameters, reservoir volumes, bolt patterns, and line fitting sizes.

Get the proper part for your car.

What car is it?

Yeah, in that case, you have to get the ABS MC, because the non-ABS piece won't bolt up to the brake booster.
