Following a night of drifting my passenger side rear tire now feels as if the e-brake is on(it kinda just locks up) when i back up.Its only in reverse, it drives fine going forward.I haven't had time to take anything apart yet.Im not sure if the drifting caused it but i started to notice it after a night full of drifting.Also this car is an open-diff.Thanks in advance for your help.

 

ermm, does it make a like a loud grinding noise...?? sort of like big chunks of metal to metal?

 

No not that i noticed

 

welcome to the poor design of the 240sx rear brake caliper


do what i did. loosen the adjusting nut on the ebrake handle (small hole in rubber handle boot), crawl under the car and pull on the ebrake cable at the caliper

for some odd reason, the rear brakes like to stick when backing up. i dunno why yet

 

happens on my integra, happened on my mazda, happens on my dads integra, happened on both of my Z's... just seems like a typical automotive problem

 

Thanks alot guys ill try this tomorrow and let you know.
