I was just wondering if i should trash them or sell them. Im not sure what exactly they are from but they are powdercoated silver and look nice. I dont think they are any of the desirable calipers.

You're correct. They're the typical iron calipers found on a decade of thirdgens.

LT1's and PBR's are essentially the same caliper, so with the proper backing plates, they will bolt up to a disc rear end. Since your car is a 92, there may be some issues with the e-brake cable, which is self-adjusting. You might consider a search for more info.
