Well first of all, you are going to need the e-brake cables to begin with.I have seen those things on eBay for a good long while, and have considered buying one if nothing else than to see if it works. I could think of worse things to do with $30.There are several ways to make the e-brake work. I made my own extension out of some 1" aluminum strap I had laying around. I have since made another from steel under the assumption the aluminum would have failed me. Been down there for almost 4 years though. I will get around to installing the new one when my driveshaft is made.

isnt the whole poin of this thing so you retain your stock ebrake cable. if so i would be saving money

The cable from the e-brake lever to the tunnel remains, the cables that actuate the drum brake are different between S13 and Z32.Aside from the lengths, the ends at the hub are different. I cant think of a way to use the stock S13 cables to activate the brake outside of splicing, or crimping the correct end link on.
