A universal hydraulic handbrake (e-brake) conversion lever of the type commonly fitted to MINI Cooper S R53 cars for drift/motorsport use. These kits replace the factory mechanical handbrake with a hydraulic master-cylinder lever that fully locks the rear brakes independent of the pedal, and mount in either a vertical or horizontal orientation; a matching listing ("Universal E-Brake Hydraulic Drift Racing Handbrake Vertical Horizontal Lever") is sold as a universal-fit item rather than one built specifically for the R53 chassis.
