Default Identifying Calipers

Last week I had to tow my 00 hatch SFWD project home (from my friends backyard) and noticed that the spare tires I had would not fit on the front brakes. I busted out the measuring tape and sure enough they were the 10.4" rotors. While it was a nice surprise to find out the shell I bought came with a brake upgrade, I have no idea what car these parts came from. I understand that there are 3? different calipers from the various hondas that use the 10.4" rotor right? It is also my understanding that the pads are not interchangable...

With that being said, I would like to try and identify these. I saw no markings on the calipers to indicate a brand or anything (my other calipers say nissin, but these say nothing). I need to get some new pads soon and it would be nice if I could determine which pads I need to order.

Not that I could see. I know my other calipers say nissin on the front of them..but these seem to be totally blank.

I did take some pics but they turned out horribly (garage has poor lighting). I will try to go out and get some better pics in a bit (after I borrow a flood light or something).
