Difference between z32 and s14 hubs/spindles and e-brake

Difference between z32 and s14 hubs/spindles and e-brake
After a long Sunday I had to find out the hard way the following:
- z32 axles are thicker than s14 ones in the rear
- the front ones need to be pressed out if you want to use them on your 240
- the e-brake is different, uses a drum type of emergency brake whereas the 240s e-brake cable just utilizes the caliber
- you need to make a little spacer for the e-brake to put under the drum
- the e-brake cables need to be spliced into original ones or you need to make a bracket or extension (so close but not close enough...)
- you shouldn't try to use a hammer to take out the rear axles from the hubs, now I need new axles...
Any ideas on what to use for an extension for the e-brake cables? For now I spliced them into the factory cables but I dont know how long they'll hold. Now I'm dreading the day when I do my differential with the new axles...

I dont know what you were trying to get at.
I adding info you were missing and tried to make it more sensible.

Thank you for the corrections. When I said spacer, I referred to the big bolt that holds the ebrake. If you look at a z32 hub it actually goes around the bolt. I used a piece cut out of a wheel spacer to go around the ebrake bolt inside behind the ebrake.
Anyway, you know where I can get the Yanack ebrake line kit you mentioned? Thanks for all your help.

^ i know what your talking about. Weird thing is that i had 2 sets of Z32 rear e brakes one of them the bolt went throught the hub, the other it didnt.
My R33 rear brakes dont have it either.
As for Yanack, try Jspec, G Dimensions or Phase2.
