Post

hey, i saw these cables hanging under the car and i just want to know how to hook them up the the e- brake so the e-brake can actually work. Is there some type of aftermarket thing needed to make the 300zx brakes work on a 240 ebrake??

driver side



pass side



any help would be greatly appreciated, i just got this car and have spent the last 2 weeks finding all the bits and pieces that are hacked together and am trying to fix them. I kno about the rust, and this isnt going to be some kind of track car, just something to get me around while i build up something else in the garage.

Im no pro on brakes but Lets see what links I saved when I was was re-searching this.

zerothread?id=202239Hes selling what you need.

zerothread?id=177739Read up on it, the search button does wonders.

http://www.mynismo.comAnd im pretty sure they still sell the conversion kit for the e brake.

Sorry I couldnt get anymore but that button up top that blinks "search" is like an instant librarian for the forums.

Just connect the lines to your T-bracket and get some plates to mount the lines to the floorboard. You may need the Z32 ebrake extensions too from what I've researched.
