Default integra abs removal questions

ok so i am not a huge fan of abs brakes and am thinking about removing the whole system from my 94 gsr. now in my thinking i was wondering if i could remove all of the hard lines and replace all of the brake lines with stainless braded ones from the master cylinder all of the way to the calipers. i realize that all of the corresponding axles have to have the exact same length lines in order to have equal hydraulic force applied to both calipers. now i just wanted to know if anybody has ever attempted to do this before. i did some searching and found nothing pertaining to this subject. any help appreciated.

hmmmm i was not aware that they were different but i suppose i could look into that, but in a sense would my idea not be more on the performance side of things? like people replace about 1 foot of their brake lines to stainless braided in the sense that it gives them more pedal feel and stiffer brakes as where the lines do not expand under high pressure. i would be replacing the lines from the master cylinder all the way to the caliper.

well i suppose that helps a little bit as i would need a new mc and proprtioning valve but other than that it doesn't mention a whole lot on the stainless line theory but i suppose that it would in a sense be the exact same if the lines are indeed the same length

i did mine recently. i left all the brake lines intact (haven't had a chance to change them) but the master has to output, front and rear. you'll have to get a splitter (found on an non abs car)
