    Swapping ABS

    Probably worth it? No to some people.
    I have one car with ABS, then a wagon without it. How hard is it to system the whole ABS system over?
    Current:
    2007 Acura TL Type-S 6MT KBP

    Past:
    1992 Honda Accord EX-R Sedan - RIP
    1991 Honda Accord EX-R Wagon - RIP 10/14/2010

    Words change lives. You just got to choose the right ones.

    It really wouldn't be very hard if you found a wagon with ABS and swapped every last bit of wiring harness, then it would just be bolt up and plug in

    you would also need to find a wagon ABS control unit and swap the front cross member as it has mounting points for the accumulator on it

      Id go for swapping a newer system in it. Itd be worth more in the long run.


      Like find a wrecked CG or even newer and rip the abs out of it.

        The wagon has some differences in the braking system... larger rotors, at least, so there may be others. Cross-reference Honda part numbers for everything in the wagon and sedan/coupe ABS system to see what is different. Swapping ABS into a car would be fairly involved, but not impossible. It's not something I would ever want to tackle personally, but it's doable.

          I'd think the modulator would be the same, and if it is then everything else should swap just fine. The modulator is what cuts the brakes, and it does it in the brake lines before it even reaches the calipers.

            rear abs stuff is different on a wagon, the manual has different specs for a wagon vs coupe/sedan

            Im pretty sure the CG system is still a 3 channel system so i don't see how that would be any better. All the work would go into that would be insane, your best bet is the OEM cb7 ABS system because its a direct swap. Just one hell of a swap lol
