I have a '92 745 with the regina fuel system.
I noticed that there are different types of calipers/rotors for the 700 series.
Does anyone Know what type of brakes for the front and rear does the regina 700 uses.
Thanks

Rotor identifcation is fairly easy, much simpler than caliper id.

I find the easiest way to identify your calipers is to go to an online retailers site where they have pictures (or use the pictures in teh FAQ) and pull a tire on the car to compare the pads.

BTW, if your car has tabbed ears it will be really obvious... they stick up from the bendix caliper and have a pin through the hole. Additionally, bendix calipers actually say "bendix" on them with the logo. It's small but it's there, I believe on the long side of teh caliper if I remember correctly. Hopefully it won't be rusted over.

good luck,
rt
