There were a variety of small changes over the years (eg. wheel size or perforated leather on the seats) but the basics are:

95 - OBD2; targa available
97 - 3.2L engine w/6spd transmission
02 - new headlight design

I know the headlights were the same up until 2002, but was there any differences in the side skirts/ front bumper from 95-01?

no difference in the exterior of the 91-01, except for the front lip and targa, and colors changed as well
02 had the new front bumper, hood, headlights, sideskirts, rear valance, and taillights, and i think the trunk was a tad bit different in shape

There were other changes too. Wheels changed size/design in '94 and color in '97. They phased in the color-matched roof in '94-95 with the NSX-T (removable roof panel).

The trunk was the same shape, but they added a small spoiler lip that attached to the trailing edge of the trunk lid.

And the brakes changed, and the abs system and lots of little things, but again, I think all of the major changes have been covered.

the c32b only had 3 more hp over the c30.
the targa adds about 100lbs and reduces chassis rigidity

Assuming you're comparing the most common models, i.e. a six-speed NSX-T for '97 and a five-speed NSX Coupe for '94, bone stock, the difference in typical 0-60 and 1/4 mile times is approximately .4 second (5.3 vs 4.9, 13.7 vs 13.3).
