Default thing that makes brakes act like parking brake

does anyone know what part would disable the front brakes leaving only the rears active. This is supposed to make your brake pedal act like your parking brake so you can pull crazy-er turns. I'm also kinda interested in the hurst line-lock system that lets you do a burnour without messing up the rear brakes, but I'm more concerned with finding an item like the one I described first. any help is, as always, greatly appreciated. thanks

ur stopping power wouldn't completely be horrible, like not safe to drive on the streets. Your read brakes only do 20-30% stopping. Just get a line lock.

He's right. But I would look more into the line lock... I don't think your suppose to use it with ABS.

well this feature would only be used when I may find it necessary to whip the rear end of my car around in a tight j-turn. I never use my parking brake for that kinda stuff because...well it just seems kinda rough on them. The system I heard about allows you to turn the front brakes on and off with the touch of a button, very similar to the line lock system, and you could use it at a moments notice. eh, whatever, I just though it would be fun to pay around with. I guess a line lock is a much better idea for my auto-tranny-having-ass.

I'm not saying I can't do these things presently, rather that I want to facilitate the process. I've done tons of crazy stupid stunts in my car, but I feel bad pushing my car and it's quasi-crappy transmission. I want to make life easier for my baby. you guys understand
