All the 84-85 cars had bigger front wheel bearings,so the rotors are different.Rotor diameter and width are the same,but they wont bolt up to the older style spindles due to the bearing changes.
All the GSL rear brakes are the same.
79's had different front calipers(wedge type)
Early models also had different pitch brake line threads.
