Default Front rotors from a different generation??

Does anybody know if the first generation front rotors are the same as the 2nd generation front rotors? Wondering if they are unchanged from 2001 rx300 vs. the 2004 rx330? I found some new rotors a guy had in garage but not sure if they will fit my 2004? Any ideas or experience with that?
Thanks for your time.

They won't fit, the 1st gen RX rotors are a lot smaller. Unlike other Toyota/Lexus with 296mm rotors like the 1st gen RX, 2nd gens have a proprietary rotor with a size of 319mm. Best thing to do is to upgrade to the 2010-2015 RX350 calipers and rotors, much better braking system than stock.
