They will work but the front rotors, calipers and brake pads are smaller on the non abs models so you would be down grading brakes that are already crappy from the factory.

ok thanks... what kind of brakes would you recommend that aren't an arm and a leg to get and install.

Q40 front brakes are good and really cheap. I have them on my s13 and they make a huge difference.I had to redrill the rotors to 4 lug though.
