[teamplasma]

hey guys, broke the handbrake mechanism in my ceffy, havent completly pulled it out yet and done the run round to wreckers askin if they got any but

does the s13 or r32 fit straight in (or any other)?

cause like the guys in brissy hardly even know what a cefiro is let alone have one

when you say mechanism........which end are you talking about? the handbrake handle or the drum end?

[teamplasma]

the actual handbrake end. It was setup drift style when i got it and was butchered really bad, it could only be pulled up and let go, it didn't lock into place at all. anyway long story short the lock into place/release metal bit snapped, u can't unscrew it and open it up, and it seams as if i can't detach it from the cable without going under the car and undoing it there, i've got the shits with it, one thing after another goes wrong with this car

Sounds like my car, one thing after another.

If it was a drift button you can pull them out and it will lock (i.e. pull the lever up and pull the button OUT). That's the way they're meant to work.

I guess it doesn't help now that it's snapped :

dont complain man...at least you got to drive it....mine's been sitting there in the garage since before xmas....only bit of excitment i get is when i start it and smell it's bullsh!t idling

back to topic... does anyone know were i can get a cefiro handbrake or interchangable part?

I installed a complete R32 handbrake lever, it doesnt fit real well but it does the job for the moment. The handle comes really close to the trim and I had to hack up my boot so it would go down properly.
