Default Handbrakes.

Okay, so I think this is my first post on this forum, (hi) but I have a question. Does anyone have a KSport Hydraulic handbrake fitted to their S2000? I wanted to replace mine for reliability's sake, but wasn't sure if it fit well or if anyone has ever done it before.

The S uses a cable system. Seems like a lot of work to replace. I also would think that a cable is more reliable than a hydraulic o-ring. My $.02

i have not yet done this. seeing as mine wont be moving for quite some time. but the only problem ive found is location for it. the extra cyl really takes up some space so unless your running a gutted interior it may look silly. I am still trying to figure out how/if its worth it for me to run one while being clean still. . . .

On a relability standpoint they are about equal tho. Only thing i can see being better is less of a chance of the cable snapping,seizing,stretching(which mine has done ALot). . .


Dont know if this really helped but Im pretty bored at work this early so i guess it occupied me lol
