Issues With Ebrake/handbrake

[spacepants_fb]

Hi guys,

Seems like I've encountered an issued with my r33s handbrake yesterday. I parked the car for about an hour, came back, and when i tried to release the handbrake to drive off, it felt spongy at the bottom point of the release (if this makes sense).

When I tried to engage the park brake, it didn't quite feel right either - it felt "loose" for lack of a better word. It seemed to just happen all of a sudden without warning yesterday, and I didn't seem to have any issues with it until yesterday afternoon. Does anyone have any ideas? Tried to do a site search but didn't come up with any useful info. Thanks everyone.

could be that the cable is on it's way out, or the springs in the hub are a bit sticky.

All good. Found out that the handbrake bolt broke o ff. Replaced and everything is hunky dory!

I had a customers R33 do this about 2 weeks ago, luckily the bolt wasnt snapped just really loose.
