What would i need from a donor car to remove the ABS in my current sport?

I have two sports one with ABS and one Without.

Is it as simple as swapping everything over, looms, hubs, brake lines?

How big of a job is it?

i think he means he finds ABS cuts in to much...

Modern cars are too over assisted and if you know what your are doing and the car doesnt want to let you do that it becomes very frustrating.

Why would you want to remove ABS from a road car??

Just remove the fuse, or unplug on sensor to break it.

Of course i am a race driver. (Another typical CS comment)

The reason ita being removed is i want to eventually run braided lines. Front to back. Removing abs will save money on lines. Plus a different engine is going in the car and i want the speed to run from the gearbox not the hubs and because i run rear discs i want to be able to use the standard rear bias valve until lines are made. I figured removing whilst car is bare would be best option.
