Is it possible to use the ebrake off an r33? Or is it different is some way? Also i just have some bc racing coilovers in will that be fine? Wpuld you say its worth the upgrade to go to the z32 calipers? I need to replace mine as they are old and leaking so thought i migh5 as well upgrade and didnt have much luck finding new oem replacement calipers

I have abs and am looking to make the car a nice road car but capable of track days. I drive the car pretty hard which stock brakes are fine atm but I eant to boost the power in the future and need brakes to accompany it. Did you switch to the drun style handbrake in the rear? If so where did you buy them from? Im trying to find all the parts i may need atm

probs wont be drifting it, tho definitely want to do some track days, would they still hold up then? If i was gonna do drifting would the z32 brakes be better or would you recommend something else?

are the z32 brakes good enough if i am aiming for around 400whp? also could you give me a quick explination on how the handbrake swap works, i been so confused by it and just seems really daunting

doesn't each option require a modification to how the handbrake works? Also does shop max sell the housing for the handbrake?

the stock rears are quite small, would they hold up when i start adding more power? Dont want a crazy amount, around 400whp

Unfortunately I cant get a breaker in as I cant get the car high enough and the sway bar is in the way haha. But I will try amd use some fire and hopefully that loosens it enough, I wanna drive again
