i have a 98 rs... what is that considered?

 

You have a 3rd Gen Integra.
RS/LS/GS/SE are DC4's

GSR's and Type R's are DC2's

Theres also a slight difference in Gen 3's. they slightly different from 94-97, and 98-01.

The differences are cosmetic such as the front end(bumper,headlights,cornerlights - parts are not interchangeble ie: 98-01 Headlights in a 94-97 Bumper & Vice versa), and rear bumper(bumper looks different, + different mudflaps) as well as minor things like interior.


So you have a DC4

 

cool thanks

 

The difference isn't only cosmetic there are a few other things in the engine interior and computer.

 

Those arent really based on those years. OBD2 came in 96?97? The VC difference is based on the OBD1 and OBD2 difference

Also, in my explanation im reffering to things that will or wont fit right.

So other differences would be
94-97 red/amber tail lights, and 98-01 All RED tails . They fit on both no problem, theres just that colour difference.
