So yeah like the title says I need major help with this upgrade. I have the z32 aluminum calipers for the rear already along with the matching brembo rotors. I'm having problems with connecting the e-brake cables to the new rotor/caliper setup? what's up with this? do i need to fabricate stuff? also i heard that i need the e-brake cables and backing plate from a z32? please let me know what i need to do guys, car is scheduled to be painted 3 days from now and this problem is gonna hold me back! thanks in advance for any help you guys can offer me. oh hehe i think i forgot to mention that all this is being done to a kouki s14. :rofl:

The 300zx e-brake setup uses a separate drum setup. It doesn't use the rear calipers to lock up the rear.

You need to get the 300ZX dust shield/drum assembly.
