Recovered enough to start working on the car again but already having fun with this parking brake cable.






I already knew they were seized at both sides as the adjuster under the parking brake lever was at completely different position compared to other NSX from similar year models.







Lots of rusty and oxidised bolts and nuts under the engine bay.
I know it will cause headache on re-assembly so re-threaded them.
This one was already cross threaded in the past.






Soaking the cable pin with acetone/atf mixture and still no go......
At the right side, eventually I managed to remove the pin but had to disconnect the cable together with the L shaped bracket behind the caliper as the cable base was seized inside there.
I don't think I can remove the caliper body and the parking brale cable together while having enough clearance on removing the eng/gbox so I must disconnect this from the caliper.
This pin at the left side is no good so I may need to cut it and replace it with new one.



Will see how it goes.
