Do FC's have abs? and is there a different intake between models?
I was wondering if any of the models come with ABS and also if there is a different intake manifold between the n/a's and tII's?

Yes and yes.
in my owners manual, it says abs was an option for my s5.
the intake manifold is different because the turbo engine is a 4 port engine and the na has 6 ports

only a few 89+ FCs had ABS. it was a rare option that i personaly havent seen much of(only one car so equiped). ive heard good and bad things about its performance but i do know that if a T2 has ABS, then it makes it really hard to do work on that side of the engine. its right above the turbo. umm, i dont think it would be that easy to remove. it would require new brake hard lines and a whole mess of new stuff to be installed. i dunno though, never had much experience with it.

abs was first offered in 87 on the gxl and turbo2 only.
in 89 it was standard on the turbo, optional on everything else

Ya, well with the engine out, its easily accessable
EDIT - What I meant by easily removable was: It is not something that is hard enough to do that it should sway your decision to buy the car

I wish I was driving!
The ABS on RX-7's sucks ***. About half of the ABS pumps leak brake fluid, a new pump is over $2000, and AFAWK, the pumps are not rebuildable.
I removed my ABS pump before it started leaking.
