My car was ABS, but it never worked cause my sensors were messed up. I swapped the non ABS master and lines into the car (all engine bay lines) and kept all the ABS calipers, hubs, and etc, and my brakes work fine.

If you have ABS already and you want to keep the ABS, then you need to get the parts from a car with ABS. (meaning the rear hub)
If you have ABS and you get non ABS parts, then your ABS won't work at all because you'll be missing two sensors.
If you don't have ABS and you get ABS parts, you still won't have ABS.

The only real difference between the ABS and non ABS are the knuckles and the hubs because they have a cutout for the sensor and the rings for that sensor. The calipers might have difference part numbers (not sure), but they're the same and work fine.
