The easy way to tell is that the newer ones have a much wider slot to accomodate the thicker rotors on the later models, and a slightly different casting, with a "blanked off " connection.
..plus recon newer version is nearly 3 times the price!

Cheers Spacast, I'll double check them visually, should be the same though as 2.4 was a 93 and my 3ltr is a 94.

Should be. Make sure you get the right pads for them. The earlier pads fit but overhang the disc rotor by a mm or two.
