There's no problem using a '90+ ABS rear axle, so long as you can buy or make the rear brake lines. I've a '90 axle on my '85, using rear brake lines from a junkyard '88.
I would personally use a '90 or '91 as a donor, given the caveats about the brake lines. That way you get the bigger pinion bearing in the transmission. You could also use a '92+ transmission, but IME the updated synchros result in weaker gears. I really prefer the '90/'91 transmission above all others. If a transmission isn't part of the equation, any '88-'93 car is pretty much the same.
All the '88+ calipers are the same. If you're doing this project, though, IMHO you might as well use the 57mm 9000 calipers. My $0.02.
