Handbrake Cables

Post by jjmartin349571 » Tue Apr 23, 2013 8:50 pm

Just a quick one - would an O/S handbrake cable from a facelift 4th gen fit (and work) in a pre facelift car?

as far as i know the answer is no - if i remember right there is also two different part number for facelift depending on chassis number :)
1996-2000 1993 EG9 Blue Civic 1.6 Vti - Traded in against the BB4
2000-2019 1994 2WS BB4 Milano Red JDM Prelude Si VTEC LSD

2015 on > 1991 4WS BB1 Phantom Pearl Grey JDM Prelude Si VTEC LSD
2021 ON > 1998 2WS BB6 White Pearl JDM Prelude Si VTEC

facelift cables about 100mm longer iirc.
You can get new cables from brakes international for ~£45.

What's the difference in facelift and pre in the 4ths?? I was going to put my centre console from the 91 into the 94 and noticed the handbrakes are mounted in different spots, it would require drilling, tapping and the cables to go with it.

In fact, looking at the invoice, a shade under £47 per cable, plus a fiver postage.

I should be fitting some this weekend, so I'll see how they line up before giving them an official plug.
