Here's my replica install. Didn't destroy any parts. So I can return to stock or sell them later.

Yeah, you can pick it up for $48.95 (plus $8.50 shipping) from www.PPSonline.net. They are in Canada but I actually got my Momo handbrake in ~5 days. Nice people to deal with.

anyone2U......thanks to your inspiration I completed my e-brake mod last night (alright it was 2:30 yesterday morning!!!) and I must say it looks really nice!!! If I figure out how to post pics I will. BTW I took your advice for my Ultra Yellow Z and went with a black handle( Pit Stop C/F) with body color boot. The boot matches my shift boot which also has a black handel (NISMO) . Thanks for the great post and to all who contributed their ideas and amendments!!!

thx for the DIY.

i ordered a momo pit-stop aluminum e-brake to go along with a custom CNC shift **** from Clint. tied with an e-boot/shift boot from redline goods with yellow stitching, my interior will be looking good.

already cut up my old e-brake handle, so there's no turning back now.

thanx again

Sure here they are. Big thanks to drsifu for helping me out with the installation. I cant seem to get that rubber finish piece to fit right though.. very annoying

question for you guys. How thin is the boot to your handle? I bought an e-brake handle that matches the Nismo CF Shift ****. Do you guys think it'll fit?

Decided to upgrade my interior


MOMO Shift **** Tube - Aluminum - Blue Leather

Matching MOMO Aluminum Pit Lane E-Brake handle. (I have seen this in person and looks I won't have to cut into it for it to fit)

Ligth Gray Shift (to match the frost interior)and E-brake Boot with quadruple dark blue (to match the DB color) stitching from Redlinegoods.com



Shift ****



E-brake


Similar boot except it will be light gray (close to frost color) with quadruple dark blue stitching.



This is the light gray color except it's not for a Z. I think you get the picture.

Which Nismo **** do you have? I have the Ti one, if you find a match to that please let me know.
