Decent spanner/socket set, possibly a breaker bar, WD40, and if it's Brembos, a large Allen key, 10mm IIRC, but could be 8mm.

Unless you have braided brake lines, a set of brake hose clamps are good to stop brake fluid loss.

Brake pipe spanner: buy a six sided one, a decent make, NOT a 12 sided one as they will round off the nuts.
Brake fluid: you will lose some.

Wire brush is good.
