You could adapt it, but there are much better options available for no more effort. GZ20 brakes aren't anything special.

Sell the GZ Soarer rotor's and calipers and raise the money for a Corona/Hilux/Pug combination, very well covered in this forum billions of times.
If you really must try the Soarer stuff (which is very unlikely to fit) compare the rotor thickness, height and centre hole diameter with a Pug 605 rotor, and then compare the Soarer caliper with a Hilux one. If they all match up you can use them.

Oh...
He was talking about the Hilux calipers, Pug rotors, Corona struts front brake conversion.
Or in my case Hilux calipers, pug rotors, corona struts, crown hubs, corolla inserts & possibly sprinter coilovers
