i just installed a hydro in my fb and i bled the sheet out of it and it still will not lock the wheels i have pressure new pads and rotors i am at a loss

 

Dude, what are you talking about? Take a few minutes and form complete thoughts, and we'll all have a better shot at helping you out.

 

Must be a drifter...............

 

Translation: He installed a hydraulic e-brake on his FB. He cant get the rear wheels to lock up. He already bled the air out of the system. He has new pads and rotors.

 

What hyrdo did you get - both brand and type (dual caliper with it's own reservoir, or a pass through style)? What size master cylinder is it using?

If you have a pass through style, how does the foot brake feel?

What type of pads do you have on the rear? You want a very basic "street" style pad - anything that requires the brakes to be heated up to work (like track pads) will not work for a hydro as you're never running long enough to get them up to temperature...

 

Maybe take this to the racing section? Doesn't seem applicable to 1st gens in general.

Plus we don't know jack about hydro ebrakes for drifting, at least I don't.

 

Maybe you need to adjust the rod that goes into the master cyl.

 

There are several of us here who drift, if he checks back we can try to help him. It's being installed in a 1st gen so it's as applicable as anything else isn't it??

He probably would get a better response in the Drifting section though, I will agree with that

 

I'm also assuming he has a pass through style, not the dedicated reservoir, with single rear calipers still. Really hoping he has a disc brake rear end too...
