Also remember the RS has power NOTHING. No power for windows, mirrors or locks. Usually they do not have a spoiler or radios and speakers. No armrest or sound deading in the car the trunk will be bare and do not come ABS.

Do you also have leather and a stockish looking sub in the trunk? I wasn't sure if there were any SSL (sun, sound, leather) GSRs in 03. Could also be an aftermarket sunroof.

Anyway, the 03s also do not have a helical limited-slip front differential installed. The engines didn't have MIVEC, and you have the smaller hot-side on your turbo. Another little thing that you won't have is the cabin-air filter which I highly suggest installing.
