If so, whats the difference in preformance?Or are they the same car?

different suspension tune, different engine tune, it is an r model, which is the lame way of a 'race' version

Yes. The biggest difference is that the GS-R has a very different engine with over 25 more horsepower. Note that you'll have to rev it past 5,000 RPM to notice the difference, as they behave similarly while cruising. The suspension is tuned more aggressively, too.

Yes, the GS-R is a VTEC engine. The GS is not

In addition to what the others have mentioned, the GS-R to the best of my knowledge is only in a manual transmission.

The GS and GS-R models are almost the same and don`t really have any differences in performance! The interga with the performance difference would be the Interga Type-R which had about 195 H.P. rather than the GS`s 143 H.P.

u guys r noobs,da gsr has 170 hp stock,and a b18c dohc vteca gs model would have a b18c/vtec motorthe gsr has different rims from da gs some different from front end of each,gsr has gsr blades rims.

gs: lower trim, no vtec, est. 140hp(gs usually comes with "web" rims or "fat 5" rims)gsr: higher trim, vtec, est 180hp(gsr usually comes with the "fat 5" rims or the "blade rims")front-end has NOTHING to do with whether its a gsr or not. just the year94-97-short stubby front end97-00-pointy front and looks like it has a lip
