if it were me, I'd at least try to get the factory parking brake to work before ripping the whole system out for lt1 rear brakes, your cable probably just needs to be adjusted would be my guess. worst case you need new shoes (i would tend to doubt that) then get another set of calipers and to the dual caliper hydro setup on top of that

I wouldn't mess with it and just keep the stock parking brake... up to you.
It is easy to remove TCS. You just remove the module and replace the throttle cable. The tricky part is the throttle cable with cruise control isn't available so you need to get it from the junk yard. If you don't care about cruise, new cables are available, I just got one.

i am going to use 98-02 calipers as that is what his brackets are made to fit, was originally going to use them to swap to ls1 rear brakes but i decided it wasn't worth it. got the calipers (and the rest of the components) used off this forum last year
i know the gktech stuff, they are big in the drifting world for budget angle kits for 350z's and stuff like that

And yeah they do but they also have DIY hydro handbrake kits with lots of brackets and options to make it work in just about anything. And lines too.
