5 lug rear rotor?

I was hoping someone can tell me if there was a rear brake rotor that was single planed and 5 lugs?

Or were only the turbos 5 lug, and they only came in vented rear rotors?

thanks

As far as I know, the T2's didn't come with vented rear rotors. I don't believe any FC came with vented rears. What do you need them for?

I found some info here that says that the turbo model had vented rears and that the A and B model didn't but it doesn't say what the bolt pattern was.

okay so it says on a 88-91 tech manual that the STD models had single planed rear rotors that were 10mm thick and that the sport, turbo and Convertable models had 20 mm rotors. I assumed that they were vented.

And on earlier ones 86-88 it doesn’t even list vented rotors so I’m guessing during this time it never came with them. But they were all 14inch rims and I think those were all 4 lugs.

searching I found
14x6 w/ 114.3x4 bolt pattern (Base, Luxury, 87.5-88 SE)
15x6 w/ 114.3x5 bolt pattern (GXL, Sport, GTU, 91 coupe)
15x6.5 w/ 114.3x5 bolt pattern (convertible)
16x7 w/ 114.3x5 bolt pattern (Turbo, GTUs, Infini IV)

only the non 14" wheels had the 5 lug pattern and they all seem to be non-base models so they have vented rears.
