I'm changing my two rear calipers on my 95 240SX. How do I take them apart from where the cable is attach to the cable mounting bracket and being lock with a lock plate? I got it taken off already where it was hooked to the parking brake lever right on the caliper. The only thing stopping me now is that locking plate. How do you take it off?

You should be able to just unbolt the locking plate and unhook the cable from the caliper. You may need some liquid wrench if its really rusty, as was the case with mine. The reassembly can be a little trickier as the alignment pin on the plate has to match up with hole on the caliper. You can clamp them together with a c-clamp or monkey wrench and then bolt it all together.
