    Default E brake on an st205???

    Hey all

    Just got my 5sgte st205 running well and its time to give it some ☺ The stock hand brakes basically crap so id love to fit a drift/rally E brake for goin sideways at 4am on the way to work and use it as a staging brake at the lights to build more boost (already have fresh air ALS - not dialed in tho yet) and launch the nutsack off her ☺

    Guessing you'd splice it between the rear lines and the master cylinder with a y and 2 Ts.

    Am I waaaaaaaay off or close?

    How would one go about such tomfoolery?

    Would this rape the viscous centre diff in less than 5 mins?

    Any pointers or past experiences would be massively appreciated as I'm generally pretty useless at this sh*t.

    Thanks in advance

    Chris 😎

    Rear Cv's
    Rear Diff
    centre diff
    viscous coupling

    which will break first, my money is on the diff.
    FYI i believe WRC use a clutch on the rear drive shaft when using the hand brake. they also used $50k xtrac transmissions.

    summary bad idea it will break something.
