you take the cover off your handbrake.then youll see 2 tabs holding the spring of the button inside the handbrake.you fold this tabs out so as to let the spring fall down inside the handbrake,then you put the cover on.push the new drift button on over the old button and your sorted.thats it:rolleyes:
^^^
or just bang the button on, thats what i doen and its all gravey:D
20sec job max!

thats defeating the purpose.you need to drop the spring or else it will latch on when you pull the handbrake up;)
no it doesn't it only latches on when you push the button out.

Do you find the standard handbrake does the job with one of these when drifting lads?

Would they be worth a try for a less than amateur shit pilot like me at a drift day Ste? I'd love a hydraulic one but i could doing with getting the guts to go to one of the amateur days in the first place:o
get your ass out on track and see how you get one before spending money on parts.
the cost of a hydrowand would cover a drift day, 2 up in nutts!
have a go with the car set up as it is, chances are you will spin alot, thats just means your trying.
i know its a cleche at this stage but its really all about seat time!

At the min for suspension i have Eibach springs and KYB shocks, with Whiteline adjustable arbs, Cusco front strut brace and rear Apex locking collars. She's pretty solid around bends but easy on yer back for the shite roads around here. Standard clutch and LSD atm though, do ya reckon they'll be alright for one of the days?
sound like a good set up alright.
is the diff1.5 way?
it also comes down to how you want to drift too. some people dont use the wand and just power over in the turn but for an early drift the wand is used to scub off speed.
id say the standard handbreak is fine for just a few drift days every now and then as long as it locks the wheels some what

Standard .6way diff:o I'd give the handbrake initiation a go, it seems to be the way most of the lads on here do it. I think the power over method takes talent, i think i'd be think about the expensive of fixin it if i went all out using that method. Even though i'm not to pushed about havin dented panels for a couple of months:rolleyes: I'd just like to give it a go anyways, seems like more craic than belt out doin a million mph on a race track, Nutts is a bit of a trek to go but i'd do it! My friend has an ae86 and he wasnts ta have a go too:)
weld up the diff so and it should be fine.
where you from? most of us make a 2-2.5 hour drive to get to nutts:(

Galway lad, she's a road car too so i won't be welding it im afraid, looking to get a 1.5 or 2 way in future, will prob be a while away yet though, the standard locks up pretty well all the same..
my car is my road car and iv a two way in it. would highly recommend one.
ah would take you about an hour more to get to nutts but its well worth the trip.
