I have toyo proxes fz4s on my car. I'm worried that there may be something wrong with the ebrake cause if i pull it up while moving, it'lll just slowly come to a stop, rather than chirping the rear tires. Is that a problem or is this normal with sticky tires?

 

I need to know about this too. My car can move with some force if with the ebrake up.

 

Remove your center console and tighten the cables, they get stretched out over time, kind of like a girls...............

 

could also be shitty pads

 

chaning pads very soon, if that doesnt work, i'll check the cables. Thanks!

 

I better check mine out too. I did check the ebrake tension and adjusted it so it comes up all the way at 6-9 clicks. But I tested it while I was driving around 20mph and it very slowly slowed the car down.

 

Not that relevent, but I live out here in the desert in Arizona, one night I'm going about 55 and its like pitch black save for my headlights. Freaken Javelina comes running out and I start to slow down to like 45, The bastard waits till I get to him, then walks into my lane and stops. I now what a deer in headlights mean. As soon as my headlights fell on him he froze. I stomped the brakes, the abs kicked in, you could hear the random chirps the tires were making. Split second later I realised I wouldnt stop in time so I yanked the E-brake, The back tires screamed like a bitch and I slid to a nice jarring stop. Very good E-brakes :D

 

Pads / shoes
