the problem is our ebrakes are WEAK. not very useful for drift, and IMHO you can probably do without ebraking it...

There is a company that makes a hydraulic ebrake. It taps into your rear bake lines and uses your brakes instead of the shoes. It works awesome. Its a company in Cali. I think its called CNC, or ccn or something. Just do a search on the web. It works great for ebrake initiated drifts... Way better than the stock ebrake. The drift button works awesom too...

we tried the cnc one before the wilwood setup, they kinda suck if you don't have separate calipers for it.

it isn't just the quality of the setup, but the fact that a cnc one plumbed straight into your car screws up the braking pretty badly, and makes it stick funny. not super safe. i would run the stock ebrake setup until you wear it out and find it a limitation. then start thinking about another setup. and clutch kick ftw!
