When upgrading your S13/180sx rear brakes to Nissan 2 pot caliper and rear drum handbrake you will find the handbrake cables do not exactly line up to the S13/180sx chassis and handbrake lever.
The GKTECH cable conversion plate is made from laser cut 5mm thick steel and allows you to easily adapt Z32 2+2 handbrake cables to your S13/180sx chassis and handbrake lever.
We allow these lines to be located via the OEM handbrake pin which is cast into the cable bracket into the bracket and also have incorporated an M8 thread in the plate to hold the cables down rather than the M6 thread used from OEM. This means you don’t have to waste time around with loose nuts on the top and fidgeting around with spanners and tools.
NOTE: MUST be used in conjunction with the Z32 2+2 door handbrake cables. Will NOT work with other cables.
FAQs
Can't my original lines bolt up?No, they do not. When doing a brake conversion that requires drum brakes you will find the cables do not match up to your S13/180sx OEM lever and front cable. This means you need our conversion plate that enables you to keep your OEM lever and front cable while running the Z32 2+2 door handbrake cables.
Will this work with any other cables?
No sir! This plate has been designed to only use the Z32 2+2 door handbrake cables, as mentioned above.
Why use an M8 hole to locate the cables instead of the M6 provided by the factory?
We noticed the OEM handbrake cable has the allowance for a larger bolt to be used to secure the cable, why not use something that is already there to make a better/stronger product!
Is 5mm too thick and will this cause any issues?
There are no clearance issues and considering people are constantly pulling the handbrake whilst drifting we felt the need to overcompensate an important connecting part.
Does this come with everything I need?
Yes, this kit comes with all the accessories to bolt directly up.
What if I have R-chassis rear brakes fitted, which cable do I use?
This listing is for the use of an Z32 cable which can bolt up to your R-chassis rear brakes and the adapter plate also in this listing. You do not need to purchase the R-chassis cable in our other listings, that is only for a direct OEM replacement.
