Hey gents and lady.

Getting my handbrake shoes changed tomoz and just wondering what they interchange with ?

I have a rear disk for normal brakes and drum for handbrake. Also car was NA from factory so I thought perhaps NA S13 ?

Any input would be greeeeat! Thanks :P

s13's dont have drum handbrakes so that rule's that out. I'd be looking at s14's or r32's or something... but pull yours out and find something that matches them.

have you done urs? i remember something about you wanting to tighten the handbrake so thought you might have done them.

Im thinking R32 atm :S

here is a pic of them installed (obviously without the disc on)

Turns out the shoes were ok but they were out of alignment and weren't grabbing the drum properly.

Had to get the rear pads replaced after been told by another place on saturday that they were fine.

Grrr

Also, do you notice a difference with the uras ones ?

well... i bought the URAS brake shoes... they're the same as 32 and most other drum applications...

:/

I have to ask is there anything you can do with the uras ones you can't do with stockies or is the marketable factors of uras ones that they last longer or something?

s14 is disc handbrake... just like sils

r32/r33 are the same

uras ones would be good for supposed performance enhancement

so is this true for the s14 disc brake ? Do they bolt on to the rear of the ceffy? direct replacement?...and are they twin piston likie the 32s and 33s?

thanks ...sorry for going off topic a bit

direct replacement

modify handbrake cables and thats it...

single piston s14/s15... not twin like 32/33

to me it looks the same... put it this way - it wont be a downgrade... youll have 5 stud and larger rotors

the other thing you can do

use the s14 stub axles and hubs... then get 32/33 rear rotors... and use something that runs disc handbrake that isnt single pot caliper...

OR just use your standard stub axles - use 32 hubs... you get to keep your drum handbrake setup... and use 32/33 rotors n calipers (what ive done)

direct bolt on! less muckin

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
