since a recent rear brake bleed, tho not immediately after, the parking brake does not actually hold anything, tho the pedal itself does properly "enagage". So if I am not on "even ground".... what do I need to look for? Thank you

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Try This....
Seems you need to adjust the park brake cable. There is an adjustment at the rear wheel. If you have no more adjustment then you will have to remove the park brake lever and reposition it a knotch over to get more travel. There was also a time where the cable would come off the front pulley under the right lower panel. In that case you would have to re install it. There were some simple fixes for that you may have to search it out. They would place a small "L" bracket just above the pulley wheel where the cable is connected.... :thumbup:

Thanks for the information, man that parking brake was annoying, I am very happy I was able to adjust it out with the cable. Thank you.
Just another quick question, I want to get EBC Pads, and my discs are flawless at this point. DO I just install Sintered or Semi Sintered Pads? Which ones? If anyone knows, anything would help.

I installed the more $$ ones on the rear (I forgot which ones). The rear brake does most of the work, seeing as it is worn out when the fronts are barely 50%. Work an extra few $ not to have to do rear brakes sooner.
