So ive done searching around and looked on a couple of older topics about the rear disc swap but from really couldnt get the information i needed. Now i know you need rear backing plates, rear brake calipers, rear rotors, and rear pads, but do you get these fora 6 generation gt model celica. Ive also read that you need the parking brake cable or assembly, has anyone just went to there local toyota dealership picked up the parts and installed, i know getting from the dealer is going to be on the expensive side but what do you think i should do. Any information would gladly be helpful.

As for "6th gen rotors" you can easily get rotors from any parts store, just ask for rear rotors for a GT is all. Same for pads.

A junk yard is definitely going to be your best bet. There's an auto wrecking place here in Portland that will ship as well, and IIRC the 2 or 3 6GCs they have might both be GTs. Rose Auto Wrecking

Also try MazToy Auto Recycling 503-667-6818 they might also ship but if they don't I can help you out.

You can also search "rear brake assembly" or something to that affect at http://www.car-parts.com
