I just installed my Cusco Drift ****. I would have taken pictures, but I would have to borrow my sister's digital camera, and she lives across town.
I had to remove two pieces. First, the steel sleeve that goes around the button, and then the spring that holds the tooth in the ratcheting gear. This same spring pressure holds the tooth against the sliding mechanism from the button, so I had to wrap mechanics wire around those to hold them together. The final product works great. If anyone would like help on how to do this, PM me.
Now, we just have to work on making the rear wheels lock up better. Can someone please come out with some shoes that bite better?

yea, i was interested in getting a drift **** too, but i just use tape since i spend all my money on suspension and tires..hehe. But, I might get one in the future...
Locking the rear up better...try better brake pads. This should make a pretty big difference. I know our ebrakes are very weak, thats why I hardly use mine while drifting. I usually use a feint motion or just power to get loose. If you don't have a mechanical LSD, you should invest in that first. I will be getting some Endless/Zeal drift pads pretty soon. I will post a review when I do.

I usually adjust my shoes one click off full tight when I change to my drift tires, but they seem to wear down incredibly fast. I'd say I get about 5 good lock-ups before I can start to feel it wearing down

yea, I started to use my ebrake alot more at the past event we had in AR on Sat. It seems to work better than I thought. But its definately different than my 240sx. The Z ebrake seems to work best at higher speeds.
