I have searched around here for a while and have only found bits and pieces about making an ebrake work with a rear big brake kit someone made a post eluding to using Z32 ebrakes in combination with his rotora kit but I got no response. Could someone help me out?

Use the entire z32 rear assembly.

Are you talking about the Z32 Hubs or the whole thing including the Z32 uprights?

You don't *have* to use the uprights unless you have a Z32 rear shock to go in too. Everything else swaps to the S13/S14 upright.
We've discussed this for literally years.

I have a question about brakes. I have z32 fronts and stock rears on my non abs s13. How do I get better brakes if these brakes are strong enough to lock up up in a second? Do the z32 rear brakes just upgrade the e-brake?

OK, you get bigger rotors, it's better heat dissipation, better cooling, less fade, etc look how cool your fronts look. The separate ebrake assembly hinders the chances of warping the rear rotors.
As for being able to lock up the brakes, normal street driving you don't really want to lock up the brakes, because well you can't steer and you stop quicker when you modulate braking.

you could be locking up for lots of reasons
1 could be is that you're using the stock bmc and 2 that you have stock rear brakes 3 could be your tires 4 through 20 can be found--
using the search button.
edit:
