Ok, Just have to make sure. I'm ordering new discs and pads for all corners tomorrow, I just have to make sure I get the right one for rear. SO Here's a picture of the rear "discs", I'm thinking this is WITH a hub. Am I correct?

Ok, It looks bad. It's been unused for 6 months. But you don't wanna see the shocks It has right now. They look they're ORIGINAL :D

Well that's why I'm restoring it, right?

Disc without hub...

As for make, well its only the rears, and they're all fairly similar....

Personally, I'd go for the brembo's, if i was going to put standard ones on.
