Default Caliper Question

I'm trying to figure out if I have "Akebono" calipers or "Nissin" calipers... Hopefully someone can help me out.

I have a 92 Accord LX, and I'm looking at the calipers, but there are no brand names like the ones i'm looking for. I have part numbers:

"AD57
23-14
2224

B132"


I did some searching and found that these:

"AD57
23-14
2224

A102"

Are Akebono. Common sense would tell me that they would be the same brand, and probably the left and right, but I'm not sure if the person who posted their information was/is correct...

Anyway, I call NAPA, and they are no help to me what-so-ever they just tell me to look for the name, and yeah...

Anyone know what brand calipers I'm using going off the numbers I provided above (my part numbers are BOLD)?

Thanks in advance

Akebono caliper first:


Nissin caliper below:


Notice the difference in the caliper slide pins (#16). Which kind do you have?

I know this is in the FAQ, so if anyone has images of the two calipers they might want to post them back up again.

Okay, I did make this. Might not work for everyone, but hopefully it helps.

https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-accord-1990-2002-2/90-93-calipers-pads-akebono-versus-nissin-2631662/

(Link now includes photos.)

That's the info from the parts catalog for each USDM 1990-1993 Honda Accord. Hope it helps out.

Also the Nissin ones say Nissin on them and the Akebono ones have three little triangles on them.
