The caliper mounting bracket is physically welded to the strut.

So there is no version that has a bracket bolted to the strut for the caliper! Or am I thinking of another Corona strut? Or is it the RA40? 
Basicly I want a strut that has a bigger stub axle than the TA22 and also allows me to bolt a Caliper bracket to it! Oh, I also want the strut to fit into the TA22!

I got one that bolts, either ra60 or a ra28, can't remember which one as I have both. it unbolts, if it is the ra60 though, the camber wasn't right on my 28, you'd need control arm mods to make it right. No idea how it'd fit on a ta 22 though.

Ok so the XT130 doesnt have a strut with a removable(read unboltable) caliper bracket?

What's wrong with using the AE86 strut?
Just asking as other than the misinformation about them being weak, I see no reason why it can't fit the bill.

Who said anything about a ae86?
Does the RA40 have 4 or 5 stud?

I did!
Can't the 86s strut work in the TA22? That would solve your welded backing plate issue with the other strut would it not?

I have no idea! What size is the stub axle on the ae86 strut? This is what i'm trying to get around! The stub axle on the TA22 strut is way is to small!
