I know there are the little gears on the brakes them selves to twist to adjust. I am getting nothing out of that is there a part where you can adjust the ebrake line? or whats the best way.

Haven't done it myself on a Supra, but most cars have the adjuster at the base of the hand brake lever. Check there for a nut on the end of a long threaded rod.

yeah i have found that but i was wondering if there is just any where under the car. but i just went over the cygus and found the part that tells me i have to remove the center console to do it. so i guess on my day off i can do that lol

I think thoes are the only 2 ways to adjust the e-brake. Might be time for new shoes???

Take rear wheels off, take caliper mount and caliper off in 1 piece, take rotor off. Then you need to open up the parking brake shoes with the star wheel adjuster, like you would on a typical drum brake setup. You'll want to open the shoes up till theres a slight drag on the shoes. Dont fuck with the cable unless its broken

^this. I have mine adjusted to where 4 clicks locks the wheels to where I can't manually spin them anymore. Once you get the hub off, just take a flathead to the star wheel.

 

[alucardunit1]

what way do you spin the star wheel when you have the hub off? up or down

Dont know look at the threads after you take the disc off
