Okay, this may sound stupid, but on my 90 spirit, the car has 4 wheel disc brakes. Is there a difference in size between the front and the back? the rotors for the back are almost twice as expensive as the front ones. On a side note the e brake is disabled...pads have been took off.

Not only difference in size, but pretty much everything else too. They're both circular and have 5 holes... that's about all they have in common.

Yep, if you have the 11 inch setup, there the same diameter and thats it.

On a 90 it's most likely the 10" setup, the fronts are vented, the rears aren't. The rears cost more due to the extra machining needed for the parking brake's drum brake inside the rotor. Unfortunately they don't sell special rear rotors for cars with non-functional e-brakes....

On the e-brakes...the shoes' backplates rust and the linings get pushed off. Raybestos still makes those shoes and they were not that expensive IIRC.
