Default What e-brake cables for 88' HF rear disc conversion?

Hello,

Did a little searching and read the FAQ's but cannot find anything specific to the 88' HF on this (may be missing it tho).

I just completed a rear disc conversion including the entire setup (rear trailing arms, compensator arms and upper, lower arms together). This was from a JDM car (believe it was a SiR). Since the swap was assembled I attemptd to use the e-brake cables and they seem to be 6-7" too long.

Which cables would be a direct fit replacement? BTW the car will roll even in gear so I'm being overly cautious until this is fixed.

Thanks,
-Mike.

Why not use 90-91 CRX Si e-brake cables?

I used the 90-91 crx rear disc brake cables.

Worked perfect and I have an 88.

Lokar makes a nice adjustable length (cut to length) e-brake cable. In stainless steel and black vinyl. The stainless is ~$165. The black ~$100. I have used them twice for WIlwood rear disks. You have to use their kit, everything is included.
