You need to run four '98 Integra RS hardlines for the front and '98 RS prop valve. The EG prop valve WILL NOT work. I've heard of people using 99-00 Civic Si prop valves as well.

Thanks ;-)

When you say hardlines, you mean the ones going from where to where ?
I guess from MC to Prop valves and Prop valve to Caliper ?

Thanks a lot ;-)

just curious why you are doing this. ever see the video of the 97 vs 98 Type R, 98 having ABS... the ABS made the braking distance so much shorter. I love the feel without ABS on older cars but its the times its a rainy day and some jack *** pulls out in front of you real quick and you have to start looking fo options if you need to swerve off the road.

If the ABS works, keep it. If it's a lost cause...then remove it. The weight issue is bogus, 5lbs isn't enough to go out and buy all the new stuff. But with it requiring a special bleeding procedure (according to my repair manual), I am fine with not having it. Of course, my manual has been wrong, so...

96 specs and 98 specs. Do not forget that this 2 models have other differences :
262 / 242 discs Fr and R for 96 specs
282 / 262 dics Fr and R for 98 specs

15" against 16"

Stiffer springs on 98

So that for me did the difference, not the ABS.


And Type R in Europe exists with and without ABS, ABS being an option most of the time.
And i Hate ABS, so Bye bye to him

Like I just said, Seatbelts used to be "just" options in the 50's.

You' re comfortable that you can outbrake the ABS, 100% of the time in all conditions and situations? I'd Just hope you wouldn't create any accidents that injured or killed anyone besides you as a result.

Sometimes crazy imperialistic government mandated safety **** saves lives. Sometimes it also works really well. While driving today I was completely enamored with my R's braking ability get this, With it's fully functional ABS.

Soem do work, some not. I have better feeling without than with, and that is the main point. It goes against my kind of driving so it is more unconfortable for me. And i have a EF9 B18C too, with no ABS, a Toyota KE70 no ABS, Prelude no ABS, and i did not have any accident since 15 yrs of driving licence.

Hope it will remain like that. And not matter what, i will put off the ABS anyway, but thank you for the warning ;-)

OP, pull the underhood ABS fuse to disable the system if you want to run without it. Is there a cosmetic reason for this request?

In general ABS will not make you stop any differently if you braking system is balanced. ABS will reduce the tendency for oversteer when braking while turning or swerving.
