OZ has 2.0L making 120hp and 130tq.

Ralliart has 16" rims

OZ has 15" rims

Agreed on the ralliart rims looking better. If I remember correctly, I believe the OZ also does not have the front tower brace... Does anyone know if it has the same supsension?

i know that the springs are atleast different, the RA sits lower than the OZ.

either way, the RA is sooo much better than an OZ.. except i would love to have an 02-03 OZ just to play with/modify

soccer moms in soccer vans beat OZ's.
Ralliarts - Van, no comparison.

o and the ralliarts appear lower because of bigger rims and possibly different suspension, not sure. OZ's are much uglier IMO

The suspension system on the OZ and the ralliart are completely different. The ralliart has a sport tuned, rally inspired suspension. The ralliart also has the front strut bars and it borrow the evo shifter. OZ does not have all around disc brakes and ABS is an option.

Yea, cuz having a completey different engine isn't a big difference.

The shifter, suspension, tower brace (I believe), wheel style and size, and ABS are all added and different on the RA. But all of that is moot really considering that the MAIN difference is the engine.

Plus I think having the Ralliart badge is nicer than having an OZ badge.

Yes, but it came off as that the 2.4L was no more excting then having foglights or a special grille.

Suspension isn't really all that different. Same linkage and all, the OZ just sits a bit higher. All suspension parts are interchangeable for the OZ and Ralliart.

Ralliart also has smoked headlights (OZ is chrome), sideskirts and rear lip (OZ just has a front lip), more aggressive clutch, more aggressive gearing, and better front seats.
