There's also a nut on the actual e-brake lever that also tightens it. When I first got my S13 it was pretty loose. I just tightened the adjuster nut and it's locks the wheels pretty hard now.

Ebrake shouldn't be dependent on fluid level. It's mechanical. It's designed to be used in an emergency, if you loose brake fluid.
On the same note, that's what mine does. And I have fresh pads as well. And it stops the car and holds it on a hill, and seems to grab pretty low, but it takes a ton of effort to actually lock the tires. I need to climb under the car and see what's going on with that too.

and when i tighten that, it just makes it harder to pull the brake. still the same effect, just worse. lol

The fact that my car has the same problem as bearback's really motivates me to go fix this issue ASAP.

And so because we were talking about ebrakes and all that Jazz I did some searching. If i was going to build a track car/have a hydro ebrake. I would try to do something clean like this.
(Ignore the gay shift knob)

?? LOL, compared to numerous other Hydro ebrake installs I have seen, that one is very clean. Like I said minus the retarded shift knob.
I dont see what you are trying to convey with your post.
