Today i went to the Extreme Dimension Open house & car show. It was awesome over there, a lot of bling bling cars. Only thing sucks is that i didn't win a single raffle with waits of like 5 hrs..
Should've gotten like 4 raffle tickets like everyone else haha.
ANyways, I saw this one 350z with elongated e-brake lever. Anyone have done this that could work for daily? I've always wanted to elongate mine but couldn't find out how to.

Because i'm a short guy, if i pull the seat close to the steering so that my leg can depress the clutch pedal, then it gets hard for me to reach for the e-brake. It's even harder because we have bucket seats.

[QUOTE=Tackett;8622717]Maybe a set of these would be cheaper/easier to obtain 
Dude that could help lol. I'm 5'5. I tend to sit close to the steering so that i have more control of the car..

Some companies make spacers. Some make handles that are longer than others. Just have to get the right adapter.
Edit: after closer inspection of that photo, it looks like the old stock handle is still there, covered with the boot, and has that contraption/extension attached to it...

I don't wanna get the whole handle and deal with the headache..
Some dudes around here who drift have machined their own ebrake extensions, I don't think their is a simple way of just buying something premade to cram on there.
Switching out the whole handle actually isn't difficult. Much simpler than what you are thinking about doing probably.

When you adjust the screw behind the ash tray for e-brake, does it matter how many times you turn?
The more i turned, the more it getts firm to pull the e-brake and i like it that way.

This is out of the spacer sticky in the wheels/tires section.
If you scroll down there is some info on adjusting the ebrake.
if that helps any.
