The GKTECH Hydraulic handbrake setup with remote lever allows for the fitment of a hydraulic handbrake lever in situations where a traditional hydro design cannot fit.
Whether it is because of the shape of the centre console, the parking brake, or the gear shifter, the remote hydro can be a solution for when a traditional style hydro isn't.
The remote hydro relocates the master cylinder to a secondary bracket connected by a sleeved cable. This secondary bracket is then located approximately 600mm behind the handle, out of the way.
By relocating the master cylinder this greatly reduces the size of the bracket at the handle end, allowing it to fit in more applications.
Cable length included is 555mm (this is the measurement between the handbrake cage and master cylinder bracket).
With our CNC machined aluminium handbrake handles the whole unit is lightweight although very strong after a significant amount of FEA to ensure loads were evenly distributed across the handbrake assembly.
Our handles are now available in silver, black, neo chrome, blue, pink, purple, gold, orange and red.

FAQs
Will this fit my car?This is a universal item that may fit any car. In saying that, it's always a good idea to inspect your own car to see if you have room to fit it. Note that we do sell car specific handbrake mounts to suit a range of Nissans, Toyota 86 etc. (sold separately)
How do I know which size master cylinder to choose?
Typically the 5/8 master cylinder is proven on an S/R/Z chassis running the single or two pot brakes, the lever feel with this master is balanced, having a longer more typical throw to gauge feel while still efficiently locking the rear brakes.
The 3/4 master cylinder is larger, so when used in that same setup the lever feel will be more direct, firmer, and require less throw to lock the rear brakes. However, if you are running larger brakes/wheel tyre setup then the standard two pot and 235 width tyre and do require a bit more bite, we would suggest this master cylinder.
What's the difference between this V2 assembly vs your lowline unit vs the remote lever verrsion?
The lowline unit is as the name suggests, low. If you're tight on space in your center console, this unit is compact. Alternatively, this remote unit means that the only the lever needs to be mounted within reach. With the use of a master cylinder with a remote reservoir you can position the reservoir wherever is convenient for you.
