is there any difference other than the motor/tranny?

ie: suspension or brakes or something?

If there isn't much difference, i might try to find a cheap rsx and just throw a k24/20 frankenstein in there.

The Type S's brakes and suspension are a little bit firmer...

i'll put it on full coils, so i don't care too too much about shocks... but that's it right?

interior is cheaper. S comes with leather and nicer appointments

i see. So type S have leather front seats? I do want a nicer interior though...

I know alot of people like leather seats, but i personally hate them. O_o
