I have done some searching and from what I have found, for someone to convert their ST brakes to GT brakes in the FRONT, they would need


GT front

calipers
rotors
pads
backing plates
and lines

is there anything else ? is the hub needed to be swapped as well ? or are the above parts direct bolt on to ST hubs ?

thanks guys

I've also done the ST->GT front swap. You will be fine with the parts you have above. I actually used the ST lines with no problems, and scrapped the dust covers/backing plates.

By bracking plates do you mean the brake Brackets??

All you need are calipers with brackets (and pads of course) and rotors (assuming it's 6gc GT to 6gc ST). Brake lines are the same... backing plates are the same too.
