OOOPS i was going too fast. i was saying that it had been done, so it is not impossible and in fact it just as easy as civic swap integra brake.

This is what i did.

I print out the kocho's instruction and diagrms and i study over it for two hours, along with my repair manual. Then i image it in my head with all the process and necessary tools. the next day i went to junkyard and hunt for v6 camry and i did find one. So i tell the worker (most of yard that with newer cars in southern california is that you told them what you want and they will get you parts) i am doing brake swap so i want the complete rear spindle unit with brakes stuffs, (brake caliper, hand brake cable and axle carrier) along with UNCUT brake line. (this unit usually cost you 200-250 per pair)

In most of case, you will find the brake disc are rusted like hell and the pad is bad. So you will need to spend another 100-300 to get new brake pad and discs.

when you intall the brake unit you will need to buy a special tool for brake line.
