If you're using DC cables, they will fit the 95 coupe perfectly. You need to adjust your adjuster till the cables reach. That is you have them in correctly and on the correct sides. There's a left and right cable. The brackets are different.

1.5''? That's all? Dude, just adjust the adjuster back a little, hook the lines in, and you're done.

Your drum brake cables are going to be longer because of how they route and attach. Seriously. Remove the center console. Adjust your e-brake adjuster back. Attach the cables. Enjoy.
