torx bit size to remove caliper.

I want to change my own brakes but just need to know the proper torx bit size to remove the caliper. I also read through the brake faq a bit. I don't need crazy good brakes just something that is good for the money you pay (average quality). Which ones do you guys recommend?

I prefer to buy the brakes in Toronto and not online.

thought you just needed a regular socket wrench to get em off. unless they did that for canadian lancers. if they did then thats dumb. but yeah good luck finding anything thats not online. im changing my brakes soon and i think im just gonna get a set of drilled rotors and pads on ebay. can't beat the price for all new rotors and pads for the GTS. no other place seems to have front and rear pads for the GTS.

i think i might just get the pads on ebay which are posi quiet pads i think or something like that. if your just doing the front pads then there is a bunch to choose from. i personally like EBC pads as ive had them on my other car and loved em but they don't make em for the rears and i want a complete set. search on google and you will find what fits our cars.
