Slightly off topic but my 02 WRX is nothing like that... Infact when I get a wild hair and decide to mess around with AWDrifting I go to a gravel parking lot and yank the shit outta my e-brake... I have also used it to initiate on wet pavement in the subby. But thats just because its sooooo hard to get a 227HP AWD car to start a slide... As my friends and I call them they are the noob corrector... You just drive at a turn and press the accellerator and the CD/2xLCDs take care of everything for you.Epik wrote:Lexus/Supra is the same way.. havent broken mine though... **knocks on desk**Eunos Roadster wrote:Subarus are the same way, small drum on the inside if the rotor hat.andysapp wrote:My e-brake is a small brake shoe inside my rotor... it doesn't lock up, only functions as a parking brake. I broke the shoes trying to use it for lockup... and later disconnected the entire system, so it doesn't work at all.
I have to park my car in gear.
e-brake, in your car is it used or just look pretty.

I wish my lawn was emo... Then it would cut itself.
My take on SRT-4s... Yeah they are fast as hell... But I mean its still a neon.
