it goes inline. with your rear brake line. will need lines made up, or go braided from master cyl bak.

so the foot brake works like normale, just takes the long way around though the hand brake.

And that works with no other problems.

The car I drove with hydro HB the foot pedal would drop when you go on the HB, never actaully needed both at the same time though so it was OK

Any drop in the foot brake with using the Hand brake ?

Isn't that what I just said?

When you use the HB, the pedal would drop.

I'm not sure if all setups do this or if it was just this dodgy brothers one.

I use the stock HB in my drifter, works fine.

This can happen. The typical setup isn't ideal, as the hyd steering stick interrupts the normal rear brake circuit. Not really a problem as plenty of rally cars have it set up like this. If you're worried about it, a more elegant (although slightly heavier) solution is to mount a second pair of small calipers onto your rear brakes, plumbed into a completely separate circuit. It adds a little weight (specially unsprung) but keeps the brake circuit intact, and there's less chance of bias issues etc.

Mega coin though.

ive drifted with hydros and with standard r32 setups and it seems to come down to the quality of the install/intial setup (bleeding) to the quality of how it works and its side affects.
