Why would yui want to part with an ABS system? I have locking brakes on another car and in close calls its very dangerious.

The time and effort to convert a non-abs car to abs would be absurd. Not saying it couldn't be done though.

what you could do is if it has better calipers and bigger rotors you can switch those parts but if they are both the same it's not worth it.

then switch out the rears so you can have rear discs also are you positive the front brakes are the same are the rotors any bigger or anything?

I had a '91 SE. I cannot remember the number of times I needed to grab the parking brake, because the ABS sytem was engaged and I was shooting right past a red light or stop sign. Honda's ABS system sucked *** in '91, just like most manufactures. The latest generations of ABS and traction control are far superior. I wouldn't waste any time with a swap.

Sure, do the rear disc conversion; a lot of people do that. Since it's a front wheel drive car and most of the weight is in the front, it's not a huge performance increase, but it sure looks good.

If you don't do the swap, you could sell the parts pretty quick.
