To all the US GT owners. Do you people ever have to change your drum brakes?

The ST204 parking brake does indeed use a drum-based braking system. Notice how the rear rotor on your guys' GTs is so big in the middle? That's because the inside of it is like a drum. It makes contact with shoes internally when the e-brake is engaged.
I believe I read somewhere that only the dealer carries shoes for the rear e-brake assembly, and they cost around $80. I dunno how correct that is though. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
