i just got done with installing my rear 300zxtt brake upgrade. the only thing i'm missing i a working ebrake. my 300zxtt brakes came with missing ebrake cable. does the s14 and 300zxtt have the same ends on the ebrake cable, and will the s14 ebrake cable work? any solution to my ebarke problem?

Not 100% sure, but I would bet the ends are different because the S14 parking brake attaches to the S14 caliper, and the Z32 ebrake attaches to the drum inside the hub.

Do you have the Z32 ebrake setup (the drum)?

Assuming you do, you will probably need to find new Z32 cables and splice them to your stock S14 cables. I think they sell S14/Z32 conversion cables on Ebay. That might be a better option for you. Then you could hookup one end to the Z32 ebrake and run it all the way to the parking brake handle without splicing.

Iwannas15 is exactly right. splice your cables w/z32 cables under your console near the handle.
