Not finding what I am looking for
As most of you know what I have, I won't go into too much back story. I'll just list the necessary info:
Stock N90 5 Spoke 15" Wheels
Plain J65 Brake system F/R Disk
Here's the problem I'm running into, I'm not looking to upgrade, yet. But I do want to replace the rear disks. All I can ever find on anyplace is rear rotors and pads for the Performance Package. Since I don't have the 1LE, what rotor and pads do I use? And if I want to replace the calipers, what then?

Re: Not finding what I am looking for
1LE ("Performance package") doesn't matter. That's the fronts and only started in like 88. Doesn't apply to your car.
82-88 rear discs are all the same; 10" rotors, cast-iron calipers. 89-92 are all the same; 12" rotors, aluminum calipers. If this is for your 85, it's the cast-iron small-rotor system. And you may be right about having trouble finding them, in general: rear disc parts for both of these systems are getting harder to find all the time.
