if you just need to know what side is what....then simply put them up to the car, the way they should face when installed, and make sure the bleeder screw is at the top for each side.... If you are trying to figure out if they are z32 turbo or non turbo, then i dunno, u have to check a brake spec. book, like from Centric or Bendix..., that might have a caliper dimension u can use to measure. or look for a stamped part number, and try to find a match.
