Whats the difference between the 97-98 white usdm type Rs? and the 00-01 usdm type rs? apart form their colour?

Just asking cos someone was saying that the 97-98 were faster than the 00-01?????

 

No, they are not. There are some minor mechanical and cosmetic differences, but all USDM ITRs are basically the same. '97-'98 ITRs usually dyno 2-3 whp higher than the '00-'01, but the '00-'01 are usally .2-.3 seconds faster in the 1/4 mile. Go figure.

 

Actually the 00's and 01's dyno with higher numbers from what I've heard due to the little bit better intake cam on them.

 

I seem to remember that despite the slightly different '00-'01 intake cam, the '97-'98 dyno higher...

Doesn't matter either way since it is the same car.

 

Ok cool thanks.....

 

Here we go again:
97- no rear wiper, ac optional, radio optional(?)

98- new frontend and rear bumper

00-01 - ti shift ****, faux cf interior

 

OBD-I and OBD-II...

 

They are all OBD II

 

The Yellow one's are the fastest.

 

I know 98+ are.. What about 97?

 

OBD II
OBD I<96

 

Thats weird how the intake cams r suppose to be improved and yet they still dyno less.....

 

97 = The best of the bunch

98/00/01 = Pretty good cars

 

Everyone knows that.

 

The black ones are least stolen, yellow most stolen, CW are in hiding.

 

They don't normally dyno less.....I don't know what he's read or seen, but if anything the 00+ dyno higher in the low to mid 160's as opposed to about 160 on the nose for the 97-98's. Again these are ballpark figures and vary by dyno, conditions, motor, etc. To not cause trouble we can just say they dyno the same and leave it at that
