02 RS and 02 wrx rotors and pads

I have been looking to by power slot rotors, and bobcat pads but the vendors I am considering, only list them available for 2001 and earlier rs's, and 02-03 wrx's.
I always thought the brakes were the same for the 02 RS and WRX, but before I buy them I want to be sure.
So, anyone know for sure if '02 wrx pads and rotors are the same as the '02 RS?

Thanks alot

For MY2002, (and all other years actually) The RS and WRX share rear rotors. The WRX has larger front rotors though. Worth noting is that subaru 4 pot rotors are also the same as WRX rotors.
