Has anyone ever fitting a hydraulic hand brake to their 6G?
Is there any way to tap into the existing oil lines and isolate it to the rear callipers only or do I need to install a second calliper?

Isn't it really bad to lock up the rear end on an AWD setup? I know it's a completely different car and completely different use, but for ken block, I know that when he pulls on the handbrake, it also disengages the drive shaft. Which makes sense since if you lock up the rear on AWD you'll end up binding stuff in the transmission or rear end.
