E-brake for s13 clarification

[89sileighty]

I know throwing R33 GTST brakes on a s13 is direct bolt up in the rear with s15 5 lug hubs, but does the E-brake cable match up in length?


Searched around and still have mixed understanding as everyone claims its too long or too short or perfect.


Thanks for any help.

Z32 2+2 cables for S13

R33 cables for S14

R33 cables for S14



Awesome, thanks man!

sorry, just to clarify. So the setup should be:


s15 rear hub
R33 GTST brake assembly
z32 braided brake lines
z32 2+2 e-brake


Done?

You can also use S14 or Z32 N/A hubs. Maybe from Skylines too, not sure on that.

You can use Z32 brake lines with some custom work, but it's easier to use conversion lines.

Ok sounds good, thanks for the help.


So just get z32 conversion brake lines and z32 2+2 e-brake and they attach fine to the R33 gtst brake assembly just fine?


Sorry for all the questions man, I'm planning it this weekend and just want to get it done as smooth as possible. I appreciate the link also.

You'll also need the bracket to adapt the Z32 cables to the S13. The ones I have aren't available anymore, but I found this on eBay, same idea:

Here's another pro-tip: Have a dremel or die grinder with a sanding drum ready. The hole on the S-Chassis knuckle where the anchor block mounts will be rusted and needs to be cleaned up.

Awesome, I appreciate all the help. Hopefully all goes smooth.
