Parking brake adjustment
I just finished my rear disc conversion on my 98 civic coupe. I used Integra rear trailing arms and calipers. I replaced literally everything, down the the dowel pin for the parking brake. I ordered brand new 99-00 si parking brake cables. Now my problem is that even with the hand brake full loosened, my drives side cable is pulled tight and the wheel is locked up. Is there a way to free up just one side? On the caliper?
I could be wrong, but I don't believe there is individual wheel adjusters, only an adjustment at the parking brake lever itself.
Could it be possible that you routed the cable incorrectly causing it to stretch?

It's quite possible since they were coiled up from the package. But I loosened all the mounts and made sure it had some slack in it. It just seems as the cable short. It could also be possible that I have the on the wrong sides. But I looked and the drivers side is only 3/8th shorter. So I don't see how that would make much of a difference
Figured it out. The driver side caliper (which was replace for a reman from autozone) the parking brake pin was seized. Replaced the caliper and its working properly now
