Will these brake lines work with my brakes??

[FourtyKid]

Looking at getting a hydraulic handbrake sometime.

I like the Powered by Max handbrake. You can buy a stainless steel lines/fittings kit for S13/S14, seen on this page. I have R33 calipers, so how would this work? Do I have to get different brake lines? I also don't have my cable e-brake on yet, so is that the same thing?

Also, would it be fine to just get a cheap one?

The PBM hydro e-brake handle assembly and the line kit are designed to work together. I would stick with their complete setup for easy installation. There is no guarantee that those lines will work with another hydro e-brake assembly. The PBM line kit is designed to patch into the stock lines in the engine bay. How would that affect any of the other brake lines on the car? You don't have to change a thing, that's the whole point of the PBM setup...

OK, that makes sense. So now my question is: What e-brake cable do I need for my stock e-brake?

what ebrake cable do you need for your STOCK ebrake?

probably the STOCK cable for your STOCK ebrake

its sad that we have to give answers like this, but its even sadder (more sad?) that people ask stupid fucking questions that require answers like this.

I didn't know if the stock cable is compatible with my calipers; whether I needed these or if the stock cable would work, especially when it says "Perfect for those who would like to add Z32 / R33 Rear Brakes to their 240sx". Damn.

I believe it is more sad.

He has R33 calipers. Either I fail at reading, or you fail at reading. Everyone who responded with fail comments about stock ebrakes also fail at reading.

OP you could've just done a simple google search. Get an R33 ebrake cable.

Thank you, that's what I was asking.

R33 rear calipers are the same as Z32 calipers, unless they're the Brembos. In any case you have to have the entire e-brake assembly to hook up any stock e-brake. You DO have the e-brake assembies, backing plates, and anchor pins right? The anchor pins are correct for your hubs right? They come for tabbed hubs and non-tabbed hubs...

I do not. I need to buy the assembly (God I'm a dumbass sometimes). Another question. Let's say I just wanted to run a hydraulic e-brake and forget about the stock cable e-brake. I wouldn't need that whole assembly, would I? It would use this line instead, correct? Because then I could just connect it to the master cylinder and run some stainless steel lines and I'd be good to go.
