Everything for the front is the same.
Heres a link that will show you the pad model # and what it fits. http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/hawk/apps-Lexus.html

If you search through that site you will see the front rotors are the same also.

The rear pads and rotors are different. At least that site doesnt list the rear rotors+pads for the 1st gen. The front stuff is all the same, I have no clue about the back though, sorry man.

Yeah, kinda sucks. Are you looking for rotors and pads, or just the pads? If just the pads then why not buy them from AXXIS? If your looking for rotors+pads....good luck

i'm looking for rotors and pads. i think i found the pads. here

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Axxis...4644QQtcZphoto

and rotors here
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/LEXUS...40288655QQrdZ1

but they don't have a brand name on the rotors so i don't want them to crack. anyone ever heard of rotorworks? they are about 15 minutes from my house. if i do go look/pick them up what should i look out for in cheap rotors?
