juxsa Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 I am doing the S13rear caliper mod to my '78 S30. I have Raybestos rebuilt calipers, the modern motorsports brackets, the Z31 rotors, and some sweet sweet brakelines from Apex. But my concern is what is supposed to go here (see attached pic) I am thinking this might have something to do with the ebrake? Does anybody have some part numbers for the bracket and bolt that does here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 There's where a mount for the ebrake cable stay bolts to. So you'd perch the ebrake line on that and then run it to the hook. Its like page 580 in this fsm link http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/240sx/1989/1989.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juxsa Posted July 17, 2016 Author Share Posted July 17, 2016 thanks for the link. i need to find a parts catalog so i can get part #'s. Hopefully I can still get that little bracket and bolt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Attached pictures show the 240SX parking brake bracket. The hole where the 240Z parking brake cable attaches to the 240SX bracket is too big so I modified the bracket by cutting off the end and welding on the cable attachment part of a 240Z bracket.

Miles Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Those are not tack welds. Tacked it and then welded to full penetration. Note that the brackets (aka hangers) changed from year to year. Mine were from an 89 240SX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
