Default 4th gen accord Nissin or akebono calipers?

Does it really matter if my calipers are Nissin or Akebono?

A)I've already replaced them with aftermarket OE calipers
B) MY car owner managed to lose the manual so I can't refer to that
C) haynes book says nothing about the caliper type.

Trying to buy cross drilled/slotted OE size rotors but if keeps askin me nissin or akebono and i haven't the slightest clue.

What's the best place to find OE size cross drilled/slotted rotors? best i've found on yahoo is 120.00 on 2 sites, but one the checkout link is broken and the other has raping shipping costs.

well I can't help you on the brakes, but Honda does still sell the manual.

I don't see why it would matter for rotors.... for pads it does. theres no way to tell without looking at the calipers. nissin says nisson, akebono has like w or 3 triangles in a circle, some symbol like that
