The Rear Caliper

What is the difference the 89-90 and 91-94 rear caliper. Is it the entire assembly or just the torque member. Is there a difference between the ebrake cables?

I know for sure the ebrake cable mounting mechanisms are different (ie, even if the calipers are the same you couldn't put a 93 caliper on an 89 and be able to hook up the ebrake cable and vice versa). Newer style is a hook and loop cable and the okder style is a throttle cable dowel type setup

Aaargh ...I was tryin to avoid messing with the cables. Luckily I still have the 92se donor . Well since this car has the 90se strut I might as well upgrade to the Z rotor.

Yes they are different, I noticed like someone said above that the parking brake cable hook-up is different on 89-91 and 92-94s. Also one seems to be a bit larger than the other.
