Are 95 front calipers different from 93/94?

Looking at mazdatrix website they have different part numbers and very different prices for front calipers from a 95 vs. a 93/94 front caliper (http://www.mazdatrix.com/j-1brake.htm). Are there differences in 95 calipers from 93/94 calipers?

VERY interesting - I've never seen that!

I know the '95s have the smaller ABS pump, but I didn't know about a redesign of the caliper. I'll have to check my '95 service highlights and see if it says anything.

There is no difference AFAIK...(I have a 95). Perhaps the parts numbers reflect a new caliper vs a rebuilt one....

That's what I would think, because if you look at the part numbers they are very similar to the rebuilt ones listed above (with the "99Z")... but why would they bother to list them seperately on their website like that? Strange.
