I am not sure if this helps but I have a ae86 sr5 with drum brakes, and I will convert it to a gts rear end with disc brakes soon. I will have to change the rear end for the 86 but I am not sure about the ae92.

I think freakinbox made a sticky for ae92 brake options, you should check it out.

dude, just read the readme at the top of this forum called "AE92 & AE82 Brake upgrade options" and it'll tell you all you need to know...

I am going to be doing this later this year.
To make it a bolt up without modding it

YOu need the rear subframe and all the arms that go with it with the rear wheel hubs. Along with ebrake cables for it and the brake porportioning block off the firewall of a gts so that the brakes work properly.
Along with a new set of pads rotors and calipers (I suggest flex lines too).

But suggestion is not to get them if you don't use them hard alot, if you plan to auto x the car or drive like a crazy bastard all the time then they should be good. But I've heard about the rear calipers being a pain from the guys who have gts', also heard from alot of people that the disc brake ebrake SUCKS!
