Springs are too small a diameter for zx too. Rotors look extra wide to me.

Google search comes up with these calipers for a Holden XB:

Maybe someone could ID the struts from the part numbers stamped into the strut tube?

I might be able to if they were even used in N America. Ten digits starting with 54302-????? for RH and 54303-????? for LH

Girlock.... I wonder if related to Girling Brakes bought out by Lucas (prince of darkness) in 1938.

The only stamping at the moment that I can find is 8X28. Fairly large stamps used. Nothing identifying the brake pad. The rotor measures 24 mm across. Dr Google was no help to me..
