1998 1.0 Micra Twister ABS?

Hi guys -just bought a '98 1.0 Twister as a 2nd car commuter. I've got the clicking noise with full lock on turning right, so I assume it could be the n/s CV joint that needs replacing. When looking on ebay for the part, the choice is ABS or non ABS versions. How can I tell if my Micra has ABS? It certainly doesn't feel like it has.

it should have a square block with brakepipes sticking out near the battery if it has abs, and some ebay c/v listings are wrong (the 1.0 prefacelifts have a smaller one)
 
Thank you Frank. Could you possibly provide me with any further pointers about what to look out for on th CV joint? Also, a mechanic mate of mine has suggested that it might just be easier to buy a n/s drive shaft. Do you think this is necessary?

the pre-facelift 1.0 has the same (smaller) c/v as the k10 mate, so if the ebay listing says "1.0 micra 93 to 03" be wary, and i,ve only ever changed the outboard c/v personally
 
Auto factors (eurocar parts) did me a cv joint for 30ish quid, think they wanted an 60ish for entire shaft, which reminds me, got to do the other side now
 
So - it seems to depend on the amount of teeth on the CV joint on both the hub and gearbox side?
Do you know which I should be looking for, for my 98 facelift Twister?
