DA is 85mm. DC is 80mm. EF is 80mm but I think I remember reading someone had come across 80 and 85mm in EF?...

Edit: EF meant to say 80mm

I can confirm that EF and DA use both the 80mm and 85mm and it seems the only way to know which one you run is by measureing them as it does not seem to be year or chassis dependant.

Correct.
i think this is the case also.

i asked the Service manager a while ago, and he said the size of the RTA is kind of random... could be either.

Pretty sure all EG and DC I've come across are 80mm. Everything else seems to be a lottery, lol

Yep that's my understanding, it was raised somewhere in the "EF 101" thread I think.
