If that was the plan, you would have to find some way of sensing wheel speed for the front.. The fourth gen spindles will not work on your car..

I read a few articles on retrofitting ABS, and all led to the same conclusion - it is not worth it.
You better have decent line making skills, some fabrication skills and electrical skills. And the ability to read/diagnose the computer on your own - because no sane tech in the world would touch that for you.
You would be far better off doing 'regular' brake upgrades.

It would be a real PITA but anything is possible. Personally I would go for a big brake kit before I tried something like that.
