[s-cars] ABS fuse pulled- Brake bias/proportion gone?

Fellow S-Car guys,
The pads I have in my big reds squeak when warm in traffic and at the last
5-10 feet of a stop the ABS kicks in, making other cars bumpers really
close. The harmonics of the squeak are just right to set of the ABS I guess
cuz there is no pedal feel of sqeaking. I know how to make the pads stop
squeaking, but until then I have pulled the fuse to the ABS.
What are the effects of this besides losing ABS? My old 97' GTI VR6 used the
ABS valvebody as the proportioning for the front/rear. Is this true for our
cars? I know of the bias spring attached to the drivers rear control
arm/body. Is that the only brake bias we have?
Thanks in advance. Feel free to email directly.
PS-this is on a 93 UrS4
993tt calipers
RS2 brackets
323 X 30 A8L rotors
Hawk HPS pads
no squeak=Porsche Anti Sieze compound-the really gooey copper stuff on the
edges of the backing plates touching the calipers
