Difference between 2001 and 2002 the little details

its 4 AM and I'm bored.

I was clicking through Owner Link (honda's owner site, got lots of nifty info you all should check out)

and I decided to compare the difference between my 2001 Civic Coupe EX Side SRS 5-Speed with a 2002 Civic Coupe EX Side SRS 5-Speed

here are some difference I notice: (might be different for other models, didn't bother checking those.)
Engine
Valve Train: SOHC 16-Valve: VTEC-E (2001)
Valve Train: SOHC 16-Valve: VTEC (2002 - hp and torque rating are all the same. compression ratio too. I duon if its really the same VTEC or not anymore. heh. whats up with that. mileage is the same too.)
105,000 Mile Tune-Up Interval (2001)
110,000 Mile Tune-Up Interval (2002)
Body/Suspension/Chassis
Stabilizer Bars (mm, front/rear): 25.4/12.0 (2001)
Stabilizer Bars (mm, front/rear): 25.4/13.0 (2002)
Exterior Dimensions
Curb Weight (lbs., MT/AT): 2553/2590 (2001)
Curb Weight (lbs., MT/AT): 2555/2595 (2002)

these are some little details that people haven't mention before.

yes, aren't I bored? note the rear stabilizer bar is a bit bigger... must help a lot with the crap suspension. heh.

For 2002 even the LX models have a rear stabilizer bar. I wish my 2k1 had one.

Also, the back end of the 2002 model is a little more boxy and less roundy [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]. And the bottom part of the bumper where the exhaust comes out, the part that is cut out isn't as big as it is on the 2001.[IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]

About the rear end being different... I heard it mentioned a few times but I don't really notice a diff. Can somebody post some pics and point out the differences?
