My e-brake is a little weak. I just had a complete brake job, calipers, resurfaced rotors, new pads, the works. I'm kind of confused about the adjustment for disc brakes. Anyone know how to adjust it?

Let your car roll back and keep pullin the e brake till it gets tight.

Thats the answer to your question man. It tightens it up.

Ok wait..
When you do that... what does it tighten...
Does it affect the pedal? like make it stiffer?

Just the e brake cable.
