Yes, you need a different handbrake cable setup.

Keep the longest cable, then you've gotta use the shorter cable from a MK2 Cavalier ... theres a couple of different lengths, think its the shorter of the 2 (not 100% tho).

FKB 1000. From fistline cables. Available from most good auto factors.

Should be posted in my WIP thread fairly recently.
