Default 91/95+ rear caliper difference?

Sorry if this has been asked before ( i am sure it has) I searched but couldn't come up with much. Planning on upgrading front brakes on my 90 LS400 to 95+. The question i have is are the 90-94 calipers same as 95+ calipers? Just wondering in terms of brake bias ect.

Well, they have a different part number, so there is a difference of some sort...

From what i recall, they changed the brakes to be larger in 93 as well, as opposed to the 90-92 models... I could be off on the years though

Should not be an issue for brake bias, lots of people have swapped to the 95+ calipers and i cannot recall a thread of someone needing to swap the rears and change the prop/bias valve or master.

There is a member here who has a gen 1 with the license plate FITTED that has made his own rear caliper bracket to fit oversized willwood calipers.
