akyakapotter Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 You need to loosen the cable at the handbrake take the car out and pull it on hard so the self adjusters work I had to do it like that and adjust a little at a time on the hand brake it's self till it held Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gilly Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I personally use these pads and they are very good, rear handbrakes are terrible on all ep82/ep91 if not serviced very frequently. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EBC-UltiMAX-Rear-Brake-Pads-for-TOYOTA-Starlet-1-3-Turbo-EP82-89-96-/350880713336?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item51b21eca78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
