I've searched around on the z32 brake conversion I've got most of it planned out, here's my question.

I'm keeping my oem suspension parts, and just swapping in new hubs and bearing that are 5 lug. I'm doing both front and rear. I really want the dual piston rear calipers and I must have a functioning parking brake.

My question is has anyone done this converion using a conversion hub, and bolted on the drum e brake from the z32? I've located the drum e brake already, my real concern is putting it all together on the car it self since it won't be bolted on to any hubs like it would be if I swapped over the z32 uprights.

I'm still unsure of what ebrake cables to use as well, 2+2?

I'm hope you z32 veteran can help me with this...Thanks

Couldnt tell you honestly. Have you checked in the 240 forum and the brakes and suspension forum? I'm sure somebody here on NICO with an s13 has done it.

Supposedly all with the 2+2 cables you do not need and adapter cable. As far as I know To swap the rear brakes you can use the S13 upright with the Z32 E-brake assy. If not I have tons of Z32 uprights. Email me at [email protected]. The ebrake should bolt to the S13 upright though.
