    FAST says JDM rear handbrake cables are the same in all similar seat chassis regardless of engine.

    Yes NA 2+2 rear hand brake cables will fit 2+2 TT.

    Hold your horses

    When I swapped my 89 TT rear cradle with a 92 NA they were different, the difference that I came across was where the cable went through the stone shield. they each had a different body that bolted to the stone shield to hold the cable in place. I tossed up for a while which one I was goin to use before the job however when it came down to the alloy bit at the end of my TT was cracked and fell apart, just as well as it wouldnt have fitted to a NA stone shield and I couldnt be farked bulling the TT cradle apart just to use the stone shield on a NA cradle

    Im guessing one subframe was 2+2 and the other 2+0? They're the only differences in handbrake cables.

    Worked out fine. 2+2 tt cables into a 2seater n/a subframe conversion.

    Off topic a bit.
    When I put rear diff and 5stud con, with brakes to s13. I was told to use n/a cables. because tt ones was different.
