I would like to know all i can about the RZ model.

ANY differences compared to the our version.

This includes performance, and body/interior.

I know the norm, like turbo difference, callipers, suspention.

What else do I not know of? I like to learn as much as i can, so throw me your info.

Was 98 or 97 the last year of the RZ?

what year had the red seats, and what year had the black?

Was it just the Spirt R that had the red stiching inside, or did the RZ also?

Give me any stats you may have too.

And blah blah blah.........

Once We get all the info to do with the RZ then ill start a thread to do with the Bathhurst and others.

Oh and no flameing cause i want to know about a car that is not available here ...got it.

hahaha





Cheers

Shawn

The second one you threw up was just for 96-97 i believe(from what it said at the top).

What was the first year for it, and was 97 the last or 98?

It says 96-97 at the top, and the RZ was listed under the specefications table.. so, maybe '96 or '97 was its first year..
