Difference between ABS and noabs Proportion valve

Hi

Is there a difference between the ABS proportion bypass alve and the nonABS valve?

If not, can someone make a quick drawing of the brake system
(yes i have looked in the manual)

Two rear brake lines - interesting..
Mine is A-spec and only has one rear brake line.
I removed my ABS a year ago and kept the proportioning valve the same.
If you punch the brakes, the fronts will skid.
If you press them to allow the weight to transfer to the fronts, breaking is even.

I got a Jspec and im almoste 100% that those lines are brake lines. It is 4 lines from the engine bay to the rear of the car (fuel, fuel-retur, and 2 brake lines).

Nono, one is for fuel in, one is for fuel return, one is for brake lines, and 1 goes to the 3-way check valve at the rear (catchs fuel when the car turns off) - Follow that line -- it leads to the charchol canister.
