Brake caliper question.

Hi, my '91 corolla GT-S is going to need new brakes all around very soon. I can handle this myself, But I just need to know if the caliper piston pushes back into the caliper, or spins back into the caliper like some Mazda's & Ford's? I just need to know if I have to go out & buy that special caliper piston twisting tool.

the fronts push in but i am pretty sure you have to twist the rears in (due to e-brake)
