Default How To: keep stock e-brake cable doing 5 lug swap to an EM1 (si model)

Not all Diy's go wrong either











































Well basically the point of this HOW TO: is for mainly folks who alread have REAR disc brakes on their car. I am not completely sure this will work for you eg folks who do 5 lugs and already have rear discs. But if you have rear drums this isnt the instruction manual for you.

When I tried to do my 5 lug conversion I used the instructions on http://www.jdmvtec.com and the rear section of it had me all fucked up.

There are some pics I didnt get a chance to include with this project due to the fact I got HAILOWNED in the middle of it.

But when I get the chance I can take the rear wheel off and point at some **** and highlight it as such to give you an idea of what needs to be done.

I like your detailed use of colorizing the different elements in the how-to.

just briefly glancing over the pics, it seems to make it alot easier than circling or "its the thing in the middle" type of descriptions.
