    R33 296x30 caliper
    R32 296x30 caliper
    R32 280x30 caliper
    Z32 280x30 caliper
    R32 280x26 caliper
    Z32 280x26 caliper
    Z32 280x30 caliper

    there r different calipers even on the same model. z32 (not sure about the others) came in iron & alloy as well.

    Need to add what models they are to distinguish them. Any reason why you had two Z32 280x30 caliper, and i am also pretty sure the R32 never had a 26mm wide disc EDIT- yes they did (non GT-R 4WD version).

    Like i said in your wanted thread, have a look at the DBA product list as it will list all the dimensions and different models.

    EDIT: full list attached
    Looks like all rears are the same (unless running Brembos)

    NOTE: even though the R33 and R34 GT-R run Bermbos and their discs match, the mounting points do not. R33 is 12mm and R34 is 14mm.

    I know there is a thread here about them somewhere, even included measurements (also had calipers like RX7, Celica 2&4 pistons) and pics to identify the differences. All the ones quoted above are all alloy, and you can get steel calipers from S14/15 silvias, to suit 280x30 size.

    Z32 calipers are pretty much the same as their R32 counterparts, but also come in cast iron. 200SX's have the cast iron calipers too.
