My suggestion to you is to not go steel braided line in the rear, but the front, to soften the braking power in the rear since you’re hell bent on keeping your 14s.

Most likely, I’ll be installing my conversion next weekend. I think I know what I’m going to do with what I have.

when i flushed everything and put the drilled n slotted up front and new drums in the rear i put all braided lines on it because something was feeling "off"..turned out one of the lines was deteriorating on the inside..which is more common than you think....so ive allready got the braids

i think at this point im more curious as to how the hand brake cables and your adapter go together

I hope this pic helps. I didn’t put the cable through the hole yet, because it’d be a bit of a challenge to remove. Now what is the concern again? Worried the cables will be too short? The mechanism pulls from the top, but it’s clocked closer to the parking brake cables. So I think they’d be just right.
Get the calipers meant for the Yaris, and the cable length will not be of any concern.
