If it was the engine that was your decision between the diff models Id go for 05. It has as close as possbile to the type-r engine as possible minus the lsd. I think its got the cams and IM?

why are you such an ***, at least be inciteful and informative....and he did mention "gears" and that has nothing to do with the exterior. Get a life and dont try to bully people "online"

Hey dude. He was clearly talkin about the engine/trans thats why he mentioned the 10hp and the possiably of different gear ratios. He didnt say do they look different or anything like that.

The 05 has +10hp over the 01-04 becasue it has different cams and possiably a couple of other things. The suspension has also been stiffened. That's about it performance wise unless larger tires (17's) also fall into this category. K20Z1 = 05+ K20A2 = 01-04

No I am not a hater, I just was stating something that is different on the 05s than the 01-04s. Did I not answer the question asked to the best of my knowledge about RSX's??? Alright then.
