JDM ITRs has higher compression and comes with the OEM JDM 4-1 header, and I think a different exhaust system compared to the USDM ITRs

Re: U.S. Type R vs JAP Type R (skafia)
96 spec had 4lug, smaller brakes, Different header, Lights, ex.
98 spec had 5 lug, larger brakes, 4-1 header, different gear ratio....
But ran similar or same 1/4 mile times, big difference is the braking power!

In Japan, they have 96Spec, 98Spec, and 00Spec Type R's.

Ive never heard of a 00 spec JDM R. Whats different between the 98 spec and 00 spec R's?

Jomo,
From this point on, please refrain from using the word "Jap" as an abbreviated word for Japanese. JDM (Japanese Domestic Market), or JP (Japan), or JPN are abbreviations that are more widely used. Jap is considered derogatory and do not like to be called that. I know you did not intend to offend anyone but just FYI

Re: U.S. Type R vs JAP Type R (skafia)
What is the 96 spec ITr running.....EVO's and Skylines. You guys have a lot of those on the Island right. The ITR would get its *** handed to it but a stock EVO, WRX, Skyline etc (Esp if they are from Japan).
