Rear Drum to disk conversion - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #17187 8 posts Started by Skate4mindgame
Is it possible to go to an autoparts store and just get all the parts new (not really worried about the price), or am i going to have to find a rear brake assembly off of a 6th gen gt if i can get one.
i don't see why you can't do that, i mean i work at advanced auto and we have calipers, pads, rotors, nuts, master cylinders....ect
You probably won't be able to get the rear hubs though... nor the e-brake drum assembly, and other little parts. Just go to the junkyard. I'm pretty certain the 4th and 5th gen rears will swap in.

I think the all trac's are much different than the regular GT's rear brakes. It doesn't look like that comes with the emergency brake drums. Plus the rears on regular gt's aren't splined for drive axels are they?
Heh just incase anyone was curious, I called toyota to see how much everything would be new (Rotor, Caliper, Ebrake Drum, Ebrake Cable, Backplate) and they want about ...... 816.00 per side just for parts lol
I got all my stuff from toyota it wasnt that bad. Except the rotors i got some brembos off ebay. everything is mostly cheay the only thing I recommeng getting from a junkyard is the backing plates toyota wanted 250 a piece I end up getting them from a junkyard for 50 dollars a piece. Ill have to check but I thing all the hard ware for the rear conversion was like a couple of hundred dollars.
