3rd Generation ES 300 dual piston brakes on a camry?

I picked up a pair of dual piston calipers from an ES300 at the junk yard today. I want to put them on my 3rd gen Camry. Do I need anything else besides the calipers pads and rotors? I didnt bring the correct tools to get the piece that attaches to the struts. Do I need that piece? Thanks

I don't even know why I ask silly questions sometimes. I always seem to find a post right after I ask. ASG14 already laid all this out. I think Ill be doing the swap seeing as how my current Camry is a 4 banger. I do have a v6 Camry as well but Im still trying to get a title for it..... So I guess its back to the junk yard. I think I may pick up another pair of twin piston calipers also if anyone is interested.

Best bang for the buck and a big difference over stock calipers. I got stainless steel brake lines and the stopping power is great!

Already have stainless braided lines, but I cant wait to get these calipers on. Thank God for cheap ass Toyota and their interchangable parts. Makes for some wild custom upgrades, and some wicked sweet rides.

my gen 3 94 camry v6 le already has dual piston front calipers, if you have a i4, the rotor and caliper, brake pads might not be interchangable.

Is there anything else needed besides rotors and calipers to upgrade a Gen 4 4 cyl to the Gen 4 V6 brakes? I already have 15 inch wheels.

"Gen 3/4 Cam and Gen 1 Sol use the SAME rotors. "

I have front dual piston calipers with the caliper bracket sitting at home. I'm also curious was to what else was needed. The link provided seems to say I only need the gen3 banjo bolt, washers and gen3 v6 brake pads. It doesn't say I need new rotors...so I wanted to make sure if I still need them?
