Anyone Installed A Hydraulic Handbrake

???? handbrake skids ???? why when you have 300rwkw

just throw it into the corner way cheaper just costs tyres and fines

Maybe he plans to track it?

I would head out ot a meet. Look and listen to what is being used and how. Could save a bit of grief getting it form the ones who do it

You could put a couple of line lockers on the front brakes rigged up to a momentary switch. So when you want to slide the back out you hit the switch and use the foot pedal brake.

Maybe doable with an auto, I guess a bit of foot dancing with a stick shift.

That's what I was saying earlier lol the button would need to be rigged up on the stick in a hold to lock set up so if it turns to sh*t you can let it go and you get all brakes back.

Also you will probably blow diff/tranny/engine if you lock up rears in auto. Esp if revs are high.

I think this is possible, I had a hydro setup in my 200, and it had 400rwkw.... it was attached to the firewall, and came out on the left of the steering wheel. Could come in to corners at 150 and rip it in.... I drift my fg f6 ute at the drifts here in syd and am still using the stock handbrake until it gives... bottom line you cant connect drifts without a handbrake

There is 2 ways to set up a hydraulic handbrake

1 - T into the brake line going to the rear calipers, this will dramaticly effect your foot brake and not recommended, if anything goes wrong with it you will lose all brakes.

2 - The proper way to do it is too set up a seperate caliper on the rear just for the handbrake, runs on its own hydraulic system
