Hi,

I remember seeing some threads a while ago with photos of rear 911 e-brake conversions with shoes and drums, but never saw photos of a finished install with cables?

Anyone figure out a good way to do this? As you know, the 911 e-brake needs to be pulled towards the center of the car, whereas the 914 e-brake is pulled to the front of the car.

I've got the Vellios setup on my trailing arms (930 rotor, Carrera e-brake, C2T caliper) and that stuff all works fine, just no e-brake cables yet.

Thanks for any tips!

Timo, what is this on your gearbox? The bellcrank for the throttle?
Can you use the 914 cable outerguides or were these made too -prob too short?
Don't spose you remember the lengths you had made?


You are right. It is home made bellcrank for the throttle.

No, I think the 914-4 throttle cable was too short. I used some cable kit originally sold for VW Beetles with one 2-barrel carburator.

I am sorry I dont remember the lengths, but what would you like to know ?? If you can give me about one week I can measure the length of the outerguide and cable for you. Now I remember only that the diameter of the cable was 2mm.
