No difference between GT and S4 calipers. Nicole has a set for sale.

Why do you need a caliper? If it leaks, you can rebuild it with minimal effort and cost.

I have a new one, never mounted. Can't remember if it's left or right side. I'll pull it out and let you know tomorrow.

What model year? 1990 and later have lettering embedded into the coating, while earlier versions have raised lettering.

Do the S4 calipers have the bleeder screws on the opposite side from the 951 version of the caliper?
Or are they the same orientation?

DOn't know what you mean. There are 2 bleeder screws on the S4 calipers (front and rear).

Nicole is right. The casting changed in 1990, eliminating the raised lettering. But the specs are the same.

Nope. GTS's have different sizes, but S4 and GT's had same piston sizes.

I'm not sure about that - piston sizes also changed at some point - I would assume that was at the same time as the casting changes, but I could be wrong.

S4s and GTs had the same piston diameters but they made some changes at some point in '89. Prior to the change in '89 the pistons used a scraper ring dust seal and the sides of the pistons were flat. After the change, the pistons received a new dust seal and they had a groove cut all the way around for the seal.
