As far as I know at least on the RSX/Integra Type-S. The S has over the base model... a 6 speed tranny, slighty higher compression, higher performance cams and I slightly different Intake Manifold well alot different its metal instead of plastic. The only real Type-Rs in the states were available in the 97,98,00,01 years of the Integra, all other cars with Type-R on them are wannabe punks who wish they could graduate HS.
