It is surprising that it need a brake booster. If anything, the vacuum valve needs replacing.

If you get new rear rotors, get new shoes and hardware at the same time. Most people seldom use the Ebrake, relying on Park, so the cables could be sticking a little.

Depending on mileage, the O2 sensors could just be dirty. The rear O2 sensor seldom fails, there is a code for that. But I would look for vacuum leaks and a plugged PTC valve at the turbo intake.

Price? Get it as cheap as you can. Remember, the Tbelt is good for 105K miles and the tensioner is replaced with the belt. You also will want to invest in a backup coil to keep in the trunk. Do NOT run with regular gasoline.
