View Full Version : hydraulic handbrake
(prepares to be owned) Just wondering if it's possible to use an OEM lever instead of the hyd. one supplied, for a more OEM stealth look.
I was thinking it would have to be just the cover and the m/c pots would probably be in the way of a tidy hidden installation, can you move/relocate them?
Cheers kids :thumb:

you can, i've seen cylinders attached to the rar of the standard brake set-up. You'll need a cable to pass an mot
Ooh. Yeah I know I need a cable for the MOT. Was just thinking (for my Volvo drift car to be daily driver) Would be nice to move the cable handbrake to the right and have an identical looking hydraulic one in place of the std. Easy to grab and with no M/C etc on show the light fingered scum and what not probably wouldn't even notice it. If I'm making sense lol
Cheers man :)
