Guest scca Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 usually you need to make a small extension for the cable to reach the caliper. depends on the conversion you are doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 I was able to use the 240Z handbrake cable for the Hybrid early/late 280ZX rear disc conversion (see the right column of the opening page of my website for info). I also put Wilwood spot calipers on with my AZ Zcar WIlwood brake kit and used the 240Z cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
