front caliper question

I've notice some parts places (including dealerships) only list the 4 piston calipers under 'vert parts. Are they the same for all?

front caliper question

These are all '91s. Aren't they all 5 lugs?

I guess the real question is: how different is the caliper mounting bracket? I don't really care how different it is as long as it bolts up right.

all the 5 lug cars can either use a massive single pot caliper or a 4 pot. although the line to it may be different, you can even use FD calipers
