Roadog is an unknown quantity at this point

Not to be a smart a$$, but it would cost more to buy all the components and install ABS than it would be to trade up to an EX Civic.

I thought they all came with it too, I love the ABS though, kicks *** in the winter, sometimes I purposely nail the brakes to see how well the respond with offset friction (IE ice on the right, pavement on the left) the car is definately smart, didn't pull in either direction

abs is not all it is cracked up to be, you actually loose control with them, anyone that has tried braking in snow and ice with abs knows what I am talking about, if you want to spend money on a brake upgrade go with wilwood big brake kits, the added stopping power will give you lots of control over the car
