The transmission shifting is late because the kick-down cable needs to be adjusted. The kick-down cable is usually found on the throttle lever with the throttle cable.
Loosen the clamp bolts on the cable. If it is shifting down to a lower gear when the throttle is at max it is all right. If it is shifting down too early, lengthen the cable adjustment. If it is shifting down too late or not at all shorten the cable adjustment.

According to Chilton's car repair manual, the parking brake on the '96 achieva adjusts itself each time you put on the parking brake. When it does not work properly anymore, you have to change the entire cable. I have purchased a cable through my local GM parts dealer but have not yet put the cable on. It looks relative straight forward. A good Chilton's or Haynes repair manual tells alot. Martin Wilson (mcwilson60@knology.net)
