Brake rotors

Do 1979-1983 brake rotors fit 1984-1985 GSL? Cause on several sights i have found it says

Front brake rotor 79-83
Front brake rotor 84-85 GSL-SE

so where does the GSL go?

There are a total of 3 1st gen front brake rotors.

79-83 All cars.Has the smaller bearings and long/thin axle stub.
84-85 All 12A cars.Has the larger bearing and short/thick axle stub.
84-85 GSL-SE which has the same bearings/axle stub,but is a larger rotor.

All the 12A cars from 79-85 have the same size rotors/brakes,but the bearings are spaced/sized differently so there are internal differences between the two styles,with the break-point being 1984.
