Hey guys,

After stripping the interior, I can't help but notice how crappy the stock handbrake looks without the centre console covering it :rofl:

I've had a poke around the interwebs, but I can't seem to find any alloy handbrake products to replace it!

Help meeeeeeeeeee? :wacko:

:P

Just get a hydraulic handbrake and either install it or rape it for its handle.

Are we building another track car are we? Im depressed...im still punting my lil GTSt :D

Track car? Me? :thumbsup:

Link to hydraulic handbrakes? That seems like a lot of trouble, especially since I won't be doing any of that silly............ drifting.

You wanting fancy pants gearshift lever or handbrake lever? I'm confused. And a little drunk.

Sorry, first post edited. I'm after a handbrake :D I was slightly drunk when typing it too. Mmmmm... beer.

I have a cusco one in the silvia. troy can attest to it's fancy-ness. it replaces (well slides over) the shaft, and comes with a 'drift knob' too. but I think you probably want something to replace the whole dealie. could be tough to get. maybe just remove the handbrake all together and keep a wheel chock in the centre console ready to go.

hehehe...

I was after something more like this :)

Might grab one of those and just weld the cable attachment to it. No need for a hydraulic brake setup at the moment...

    • @Kinkstaah yeah I initially checked with Chequered as I've used them with a previous car. But they have stopped sourcing and installing Nistune chips. They only do tuning now. I did not want to pull out my ECU and send it away somewhere to have the chip installed. That would mean no driving the Skyline  
    • Should have checked that.  On the plus side, I got my Bluetooth adaptor.
    • Each province differs a bit but we only do mandatory vehicle inspections here for heavy vehicles (Think Ford F350 and up). Those inspections are done by mechanics that are approved by the government. Besides that, it's a free for all as long as the car looks stock.  I asked because I love seeing how engineering differs from country to country. Here in Canada, all designs must be stamped and signed before they can be brought to fruition. (I.E Bridges, structures, Electrical panels, machines, literally everything shy of a wooden table) This can only be done by a professional engineer or professional engineering technologist. Both are protected titles, but the latter having more of a limited scope in what they can stamp. To become a professional engineer, you must complete a 4-5 year bachelors degree in your field of engineering, be part of an engineering order and undergo 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and mandatory continues education. Same story for engineering technologists, but a 3 year associates degree in some form of engineering technology will suffice. If you do not comply, or pretend you're an engineer or technologist, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails and kills someone (I.E Bridge collapse) Off to jail you go for a very long time, your family will be ridiculed on the news, neighbours will surround your home with pitch forks and your dog will disown you.  Same for specialised trades... Example Electricians must undergo 1.5 years of post high school education, 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and hold proper licences. It's for the best, but then we also wonder why we're so short on engineers and tradesmen haha. We also have professional engineers who were only school smart but have no idea how a drill works. They generally go straight into management roles out of school which is also for the best. 
    • Not currently, I'm at the school where we teach people to build bridges and other fun things that involve making, or breaking things
    • I have a friend who has used Chequered Tuning and CMS. Went to CMS when Chequered had a long wait time which is kind of the norm (for good reason). Was very happy - I'm pretty sure the very simple thing you're asking will be simple.
