DIY: Hydraulic Handbrake Install

[E30steez]

Have a question for the op. Where exactly did you tap the brake line and where? Thanks! Pics would be awesome

[Jezza]

Where the unions are is basically where I tapped in. Second to last picture of the post.

[E30steez]

Where did u buy the adapter/double threaded at that goes on the mc. And if so what's the part number?

[Danny915]

Part number for everything you need is in op. I did this few months ago and this was only write up I used. Read it again, everything you need is listed

[E30steez]

Alright cool. That's all I needed to know

[E30steez]

One last question does anybody know where mr horsepower got that bracket and hardware kit?

[Danny915]

If you order from asd it's included

[E30steez]

Asd just sells a mc and bracket kit? I want to make my own e brake using the hardware mr horsepower did

Currently installing in an e36, its a little close to the dash lol..

hmm now I want one of these set up for no good reason. Question, instead of using hard lines, why not use flexible lines like this one?

I would think cost savings would be the motivator to use hard lines.

[Jezza]

Use hard lines as much as possible. Even with steel braided flexible lines the handbrake felt mushy.

I am pretty sure, but to clarify, will I see any huge noticeable issues with my ABS or rear breaks the way I have my 96' M3 plumbed?

Its a 2 to 1 back to 2 inline setup.

This is more than less directed at mikeday, but i mounted my wilwood cylinder on its side, similar to how he did, and now i am having a helllll of a time bleeding it. Any tips?

This may sound idiotic, but seriously, park it crossways on an incline with the Driver side raised. Or... It may work to bench-bleed the master and re-install it.
