Could be Altus, or Acera. The had a hex fixing bolt instead of allen fixing bolt. Also had hex bolts for mounting to the studs and M55 brake pads instead of M65 Brake pads. Made in Malaysia not Japan. Common on bikes from $269-429 retail back in the day. The one stamped Japan VIA is probably BR-M737.
 
Deffo STX there are some identical ones on Ebay currently (as per usual).

I think the cable mounting bolt on the top corner rather than behind distinguishes them from the others.
 
Looks like the Alivio's fitted to my Mtrax - BR MC10 or 12. It has the same marking on the back

I think all the Shimano Cantilevers looked fairly similar around that period except some where different colours ie LX where black etc.

Weren't the STX a gunmetal colour?
