I currently do not have an e brake installed. Previous owner did not put in possibly due to race seats in front? Any advice on remote e brake kits such as e-stopp or others? Any restrictions or best place to install? Thanks in advance for your help.

Tangerine racing has an easy to use adaptor for adding a 911 e-brake to a 914.

QUOTE(mepstein @ Nov 11 2017, 04:02 PM)  Tangerine racing has an easy to use adaptor for adding a 911 e-brake to a 914. I converted my rear to 5-lug with drilled hubs and now have Boxster rear calipers and of course no e-brake. I would like to install an e-brake but not sure what parts to buy. Does anyone have the list of parts needed other than the tangerine kit? I assume the stock early 911 e-brake parts? Do you still utililze the stock 914 e-bake cables? |

I bought a pair of used 912 rear parking brakes with backing plates, pads and all hardware cheap. About a third the price of used 911 parts and they are the same. Replaced springs, pins, keepers and spreaders new. I used 911 bearing retainer plates since the backing plates alone are not robust enough to keep the bearing in check under side load. You can grind your 914 ones down or use the 911 retainers to double it up. The 911 bearing retainers are late model and will need to have the holes opened up a pinch. Early retainers are NLA.
