are 1986/87 5ktq brakes really different from other years?

I just looked at the caliper on my '86 Coupe GT, and I can see why I thought that.  It says "54" on it, and
also Girling.

I didn't compare this side-to-side with the 5kt caliper, but maybe I should.  I gues these are different
calipers?  Is there a "Girling G54" and a "Girling 54"?  Or what?

Or, if I read super-into what you wrote, is there a G54 and a G54/G60?  Probably not that one.

Thanks,

Ken
