Guys,

Just wondering who here has installed a drift butotn for their handbrake?

Ive searched....found this thread

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...+button+install

Instructions from nissanboys13 - it says " Using a flathead screwdriver flip the tabs on each side of the handbrake out in order to drop the spring (the standard handbrake button will sink in and stay)" so Im guessing this is the grip?

Im having shitloads of trouble and getting very frustrated at trying to get the grip off.

What is the process?

Help!

Cheers,

Chris

bloody hell chubbs... just get more girly drinks into ya! you'll be horizontal in no time :)

but i understand the theory behind it... when you pull the hand brake up, you dont want the button to latch on and hold it up...

is that correct?

Hehe, i have no idea how too..

But what i do is, i undo those two little clips

and on the side of the handbrake there is a little gap

when you push the handbrake buton in.. wedge a little

screw into it so it stays in!

hehe, then when im done.. i just pull the screw out and

clip it up =D!

Dodgey but works

      If I got a dollar for every flipped commuter missile I've driven past I'd have two dollars   Some people get into wild adventures on the road and I doubt it's gender or ethnicity specific. I'm just glad I don't usually drive during peak times.

      Just got the car back and gave it a good run back home Power wise, whilst it only made a extra 5 killerwasps up top at 7200 rpm, it made more power everywhere from 2500 rpm and kept pulling much harder all the way, to the point of me relearning when to shift so I don't hit the 7200 limiter, with the old intake it seemed to take alot more time to rev out, and, throttle response is also much improved  As I didn't want to remove the bumper every time I serviced the air filter (basically every aftermarket and fabricated CAI has the filter behind the bumper) it currently has a hektic exposed pod in the engine bay sucking in hot air, this will be rectified shortly after some some of my CAD (cardboard assisted design) for a alloy heat shield feed by the OEM intake tube behind the bumper, this will cop some wrinkle black paint, as well as the intake pipe for that totally OEM look... The only fly in the ointment was that the OEM "strut" brace doesn't fit over the rear runner of the new intake with the 2.5 engine is in the engine bay, as the 2.5 raises the engine up by 20mm, it's not a war stopper, and I didn't notice any difference without it in some twisties, but....... MX5 Mania is bringing in some GWR "fancy pants" braces that apparently do fit, if it bolts up I'll grab it, it is also stiffer than the OEM one, which is a bonus All in all I'm happy with the outcome      Fancy pants "strut" brace that gives the required clearance      This is where the clearance issue was, the GWR extends out past this
