Default hydraulic handbrake systems

ive recently found a company in australia selling some really nice upright rally style units so i contacted them about maybe a group buy or me purchasing multiple units and having them for sale..i was just wondering how much interest there would be in something like this ..

that shit looks like overkill for drifting.
More for a rally app.

you'd be surprised, when i was at formula d with enjuku i saw alot of cars that were switching to this kind of setup. i think because drifting and rally rely on the hand brakes so much i forsee this becoming the norm. no more crapppy e brake buttons getting stuck and causeing you to spin@!!!!!

a lot of formula D drivers use a hydro ebrake as it is more responsive and gives a harder lockup

i dont want to start quoting prices just yet but soon i should have something .. were working out prices on a diy kit complete with lines and mastercyl.. shipping from australia might cause a little problem but i dont forsee it being much .. if all goes as planned ill have 30 kits in my hands by march .. but that all depends on price and profit..ill keep you guys posted as soon as i figure it out..
