Brian,
You can get all the HAWK HPS part numbers at their website HAWKPERFORMANCE.COM. The complete catalog is accessible at the bottom of their home page. The only listing they show for 900's is for front pads for the 1988 model year.
I have used the HAWK HPS on our Olds Intrigue and my son has them on his 9-2X AERO. They were on his car when he had a track day at Pocono race track. No reports of fading. The wheels were hot enough to turn the SAAB wheel center caps black! Lesson learned.
Usually you can get rotors turned at automotive machine shop or independent repair shop. They can only turn them down to the minimum thickness marked on the rotor. Check the cost because it may be more cost effective to buy new rotors. Zimmerman or Brembo are great rotors that cost less than SAAB rotors. Original SAAB rotors were zinc coated to eliminate rust on the areas not in contact with the pads. I assume they are still supplied with zinc but would check given all the cost cutting going on today.
