I know I need the following stuff

Caliper
Rotor
backing plate
ebrake hardware
GT brake lines

but my question is what ebrake hardware do I need?

http://www.trademotion.com/partlocator/ind...playCatalogid=0

the link above gives the option of front cable. parking brake control, rear cable and shoes.

I also buying aftermarket brake pads and rotors that are for the GT so is there anything I am forgetting?

Thank you in advance for your help with this,

Lazurus

Let me start off with, nice car! I have the same thing going on right now. I went to get new brake cable for my ST and they are disco'd can only et them from Toyota at $130 a side plus tax. I just picked up a GT parts car and I will be swapping the brakes over. There is a small write in the how to section if this helps, parts needed are listed.

Sorry to hijack your thread but I have the same question. Just to make myself clear: the e-brake cable consists of two parts, long cable (bolted to brake handle inside the car) and Y-split cable.
Do you have to replace both or just the Y-cable?
I'm planning on doing the swap this weekend and it would be handy to know the answer.
Thanks!

What you need to replace are as follows:
Hubs
Discs
Brake Calipers,
E-brake lines (only the 2 cables, not the Y-split)
E-brake internal components
