what are you asking? the difference between the models or the difference between the transmissions.

hey nevermind the rest of these guys, i love how everyone has the time to go into a post and reply and say "search," when they could simply just help you out. Well if you're asking about the transmissions, yes you already know that the MR has a 6 speed transmission while the other evo's have a 5speed, i don't remember what post it was but i remember seeing the evaluation of the two gear ratios side by side, pretty much 1st and 2nd were close, from there, you can see that the 6 speed was shorter, especially when going into 5th, the 5th gear for the 5 speed is right in between the 5th and 6th gear of the 6 speed. For all purposes, honestly i prefer the 5 speed even though 6 speeds kick azz. I love 6 speeds, but i guess what i'm hearing from a couple of people is that the 5 speed is more of a "RAW" transmission is what i'm hearing, what that means? i really have no clue, but whatever, they're both good. From what i've seen watching best motoring vides when comparing the 5 speed and 6 speed, it seems that the 5 speed did better on tracks with lower speeds like tsukuba. I hope that answers what you wanted to know.

check out my link, I actually searched for him =) It shows a nice Excel graph of how the 6 speed compares to the 5 speed by showing rpm/mph.
