Does my accord have Akebono calipers?

I have a 1993 LX.
Is this model Akebono caliper or is it the EX?

you need to look at teh caliper.
the leading/front edge of it will say nissin if it is nissin. if you cannot see it with the wheel on you need to wait til next week til you have the extra ten minutes to take it off.
