dc2 type-R vs vti-r weight

[_paybk]

i have read on the forum that the type R dc2 is slightly lighty, why is that?

Basically it has no sound deadening or bonnet lining or boot carpet, a thinner windscreen and lighter radiator, and no sunroof unless the original buyer was a moron.

some1 confirm for me, but i think type r's in general dnt have sound deadening but i would say it could be the complete engine is slightly lighter aswell

Yeah flywheel, and the intake manifold would be lighter than the Vti-R dual runner intake.

Purely IMO, but as a purists car it's unnecessary weight placed high in the chassis.
