z32 rear brake swap...need ebrake lines?

[c32c7]

i have calipers, rotors, conversion lines for normal braking, what kind of ebrake lines do i need?

[Exar-Kun]

...custom ones. Unfortunately I don't know of anyone currently making a Z brake rear conversion E_brake line kit right now.

Chop your s13 e-brake lines, and just connect it to the new z32 lines.

You'll need to connect it really tight though, so it doesn't slip too much... and it won't stay tight for too long. I just rigged up the e-brake lines so I could pass the state inspection... but I rarely use it.

Don't plan on relying on the e-brake for drifting anymore...

Do you have the z32's brake lines intact? IF so, you can use those by rerouting them a certain way. Just replace stockers w/these.

this doesnt sound good, no lines for the conversion?

what do you mean by rerouting them a certain way? which way?

are these available for s14's as well?

I spliced mine, took about an hour or 2 to cut and splice the lines together. Yeah, don't plan on using the ebrake for drifting, unless you weld the lines together. the problem with the ebrake cables (at least for the s14) is that they connect to a T bar above the drive shaft, so if anything is pulling down on the assembly, it will contact your driveshaft and get fugled very quickly. If you have an s-13, i'd give the re-routing thing a try, but it won't work on an s14, I spent 2 afternoons trying.

I just scrapped the s13 lines and used the z32. Had to drill new holes for the sheathing mounting brackets though.
