OK so Joneblaze says he has a DC4. Fair enough, but what MAKES it a DC4? I thought it may have been the different front end etc, but his is 94 stylez.. What gives man? Any particular differences? OR is DC4 the GSi and DC2 is a VTiR???

Never knew, and never wanted to ask for the fear of being ridiculed. Now I dont give a shit so i'm asking lol :)

FANX! :D

Hi madgrk,
Mine's a '94 VtiR. It says DC2 under the bonnet. I've seen other GSi's but they are tagged as DC4 under the hood.

is VTEC the only difference between the 2 cars
(dc2 got stock strut brace as well, i think???)

B18B (GSi) vs. B18C (VTiR) engines (AKA = VTEC), ABS system on VTiR, Exterior differences (colour coded side door moulds on VTiR), Driver and Passenger airbag for VTiR compared to Driver-only for some GSi's. Also "Series 1" GSi's came with 14" hubcap steelies, "Series 2" with 15" alloys. VTiRs came with 15" alloys. Can't think of anything else... :roll:

EDIT: PS: VTiRs came with stock front strut brace.

mine's '94 and has no airbag at all :p

but yeh, series 2 Gsi's also come with ABS i think
and yeh, the issue of a sunroof has to come up here somewhere as well ;)
*i think* series 1 Gsi's and Vti-R's have sunroof's stock, but its an option for series 2 Gsi's

Wasn't the Gsi just a cheaper option for people who didnt want to spend the extra $$$ for the Vtec?

it was just a different model, with a lower spec in many ways... like a Holden Commonwhore Omega vs a Holden Calais...

I've always found the naming scheme bizarre...

The Type-R was the model with the modified chassis - stiffer bits, thinner bits, the whole shebang; yet it shares the code with VTi-R, the model far more similar to a GSi.

I bought a DC4 yesterday, its sweet. Just wish it sounded better, other than that I have no complaints. So I'm guessing DC2's must just be amazing.

DC4 was also the only one that had the option of an automatic transmission - so it wasn't only cheap people. Everyone who preferred the auto tranny could only get the DC4.

Hope you enjoy your new teg!

That is basically the only significant difference between the two model. They are both 4 stud, and both can have sunroofs.

Unless somebody has engine-swapped a GSi, if it has a VTEC engine, it is a VTi-R.

DC4 - Non-Vtec > B18B2/1
DC2 - Vtec > B18C2

Thats the only difference between the 2, and i think interior design (ie. seat colour pattern) is slightly different correct me if i'm wrong.

There pretty much the same car, if u really want the vti-r dc2 look
Swap over seats and door trims, remove spoiler/sticker on boot if its the gsi one.
swap over engine to b18c2, vti-r brakes and rad support dc4 tag to the dc2 one

.... i recon if you sold off the b18, parted the wreck and added 1 or 2 k you could buy a dc2, would save you a heap of time and effort.
