The car is making a grinding noise and it feels like the handbrake is half on.
When it's parked up a slope and the handbrake is released there's a 'clonk' when setting off and it grinds whilst driving. The normal brakes seem to be working as they should. Is it just a case of replacing the brake shoes? --------------------  |

Emergency brakes on the Celica used a drum-in-disc setup for those cars with all-wheel disc brakes. It would be advisable to pull your brakes apart to see if you can find anything wrong (loose shoes, broken springs, excessive wear, etc).
