E-brake question - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Ok, i've read all about the z32 rear brake conversion, and how if you don't want to run a drum ebrake, you have to use a hydro ebrake. My question is this: Are there any other options in rotors and calipers that can be used, that will not require the use of a hydro/drum ebrake? I just want it straight up disk all around. I've googled and whatnot, and haven't really come up with anything.

You could put in a HYDRAULIC LINE LOCK

Ksport makes a rear BBK, but I haven't heard of anyone running it. ($$$$)

Supposedly it uses an integrated ebrake in the caliper, like our stock brakes.

What's wrong with drum e-brake? It's actually better, as you're less likely to warp your rotors when they're heated up.
