The front pads and rotos are easy, two bolts each one to take the calipers off to change the rotors. But the back brakes need a special tool that twist the caliper piston as it pushes it in because of the emergency brake cable. The special tool cost about $25, other than that all you need is hex (allen) socket and possible a pressure bar depending on rust, some big set of pliers to expand the caliper in the front and possible a screwdriver to get the pads off. Its not as bad as it sounds, but you might want to take it in the change the back brakes because of the e-brake. The good news is that you don't have to worry about changing shoes in a drum like all the cheap ass american cars.
