Just FYI, in addition to rotor thickness, the calipers and inner wheel bearings are different. Pads are the same.
Power brakes that used 1" rotors were referred to as "J B3" systems. Base 1.25" systems were "J D3". JB5 and above gets into larger rear brakes and hydraulic boosters instead of vacuum.
