ebrake adjustment

and i did search for this first and i checked the FAQ's. im just wondering how to adjust my ebrake so that it locks up again, i just changed all my brake pads and after doing this my ebrake only slows my car, it doesnt skid anymore like it used to. How do i get it to do this again, since im still a newbie drifter i use my ebrake alot to help initiate.

There is a small bolt under the lever inside the boot, you will see an adjusting hole. Just slip a socket, not sure what size, into it and adjust.

If you pull on your ebrake handle with 44 lbs of force, it should go up 6-8 clicks.
