Default ABS Miata

Looked at 1994 Miata with a anodized metal box with tubing going to the chassis, also noticed a mechanism with gear teeth on the rear hubs. Is this an ABS setup ? How would this figure in with a 5.0 conversion? Also this vehicle has an automatic transmission. Please advise Folks!!!

Default AbS 94 Miata

Thanx for replying TBone, Does all that hardware stay active with the conversion? I took a quick look at the car but didn't pull the trigger caused I figured the price of the car(asking $1950.00) could buy a 5.0 rebuild kit and more. Thought about what Jason said, Buy the car last, but I'm still looking. Thanx again. Rey...

I posted pics recently of the rear ABS sensor hangers I made up. They should come up with a search.

Automatics are no problem as donors. You'll have to find a Miata clutch pedal but that's all.
