I'm not going to pretend that I've done this, but what about just pulling the fuse? I believe that there is an ABS fuse on the mkiv...

I don't recommend it.
If you were to do it, I would suggest removing the entire ABS pump assembly (if it is separate from the master cylinder), and then run fresh lines to each caliper, with the rears running off a single line that goes through a driver adjustable proportioning valve.
The ABS system likely plays a large role in brake proportioning for your car.

any ideas where i might find an adjustable proportioning valve like the one stated above. i've seen pictures of them on drift cars and a few purpose built track cars, have no idea where to get them though.
