They're like 12 or 16 inches long with a 10mm banjo fitting on one end and a reverse flare fitting on the other.

Yeah, the lines should be the same on the ST and GT. The GT brakes are just a little bigger. The calipers are also slightly different, they require different pads.

Brake Parts: $170
Pads: $35 (did the fronts at the same time +$35 more, also did front rotors +$100) Bushing that I ruined trying to get it apart: $25 Mine too forever to do becase everything on my car was rusted and seized up. Make sure you get all the spindle bolts and other hardware off the donor car in case you need to cut stuff off like I did. |

So far I have spent $115. I have the whole assembly from both sides unbolted and removed, and I have the brake lines and E-brake lines.
