Thanks for the helpful advice to new members.

I ran a hydro ebrake on my RICER DD… it worked well. I never had any issues with the pedal feeling weird, or it sticking. I kept everything pretty fresh, aka fluid/lubricating the moving parts on the ebrake/etc… but really, there isn’t TOO much that can go wrong. I don’t nessicarily condone it, but it worked for me.

Granted, my daily driver was my daily drifter… so it wasn’t exactly useless.

EDIT: THAT BEING SAID…

If you’ve got a stock 240… there is a LOT of things you can spend your money/time on before a hydro ebrake, that will have a much more dramatic effect on your car.  
Suspension, brakes, bracing, power… etc. Even better yet…spend the money on TRACK TIME. Nothing will help you improve more.
