Hawk Rear Brakes

[gp4124]

My electronic handbrake calipers are supplied by HiSpec. You simply have a button switch to locate either on the dashboard or I installed mine near the gear lever.

I also have a hydraulic handbrake.

I’ve ordered Hi Spec electronic for my Stratos, very curious to hear how well they work

Thanks

I am really pleased with the HiSpec Electronic Handbrake Calipers. I have used the spot caliper together with a separate 4 pot HiSpec Ultralite caliper. I have opted for a hydraulic handbrake in addition to the electronic caliper as the electronic button is really only for parking.
I decided upon the spot caliper as I felt the single piston electronic option is really for front engined VW Golfs or similar cars. I have fitted a 13/16" rear master cylinder with a 5/8" front master cylinder and my brake balance bar is now around the central 50/50 position and fronts lock up just before the rears. Previously I had too much rear brake bias, not a good situation.
I have posted some photographs in a separate thread if you are interested.
The only problem I have is that I cannot get the handbrake warning light to work, the led on the button works but the output wire from the controller does not do anything.....
