Will a ABS brakes work on a non-abs car....?
I have a 92 civic dx four door and just got all new disc brakes from IAS......the fronts are from a '95 and the rears are from a '97.....but the brakes the car came off of had the abs system, but my car does not have the abs system (well i am pretty sure anyway). this does not matter or does it ?
just a litttle confused on this,
:cliff notes:
the brakes i bought have abs hook-up....
but my car does not have the abs system....
will it matter if i dont hook up the abs or not?
and will it work?

The ABS would only work if you also have the hydraulic controller and all the electronics and wiring. There should not be any problems with using them without the ABS hooked up. You may need a proportioning valve and the master cylinder for rear discs.
