The Type II and NSX calipers are interchangeable.
The Type II was only made from 93-95 in the coupe and 94-95 in the GS sedan. Take your pick.

Type II has dual piston calipers for increased stopping performance. The NSX caliper is identical, so no need to get it unless you just want the caliper to say "NSX"

The 91-96 NSX calipers are a bit smaller than the Type II calipers. The Type II has 38mm and 42 mm pistons (I think), vs the NSX 36 and 40 mm

Just the front two. The rear is the same for all 91-95 Legends in either trim.
