Custom Ebrake handle setup - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hey guys,

So I won't be installing a hydro for a few months and wanted to built an extension for my factory Ebrake handle. I drift an R33 so the braking capability is there.

I'm looking at cutting some tube that can sleeve over the factory handle that I will affix with two bolts. I've seen this done before, but just can't find any pictures now. I don't need to work about the parking break aspect of it locking since the car is a track car. If you guys had any inspiration or how to's that you've see post them up! Id love some more ideas.

rip the plastic off and eliminate the locking mechanism. then become crafty and extend it any which way your little heart desires.

Right now I've got the drift button and an Edwin Delarosa bmx grip but in the R33 the Ebrake sits a little further back so it's not as convenient to grab as the S14 or S13 one. I'll see what I can come up with.

find a pipe that just barely fits over it. slide it over the arm, drill 2 holes through pipe and handle, bolt up.

Locked up real well for something that took no time to make.
