the r1 or r2 i guess, the 3rd gen was the fastest but was fairly static for all 3 years of production. this was more google worthy than forum worthy. try searching.

Nope. Chaste White '94s were the fastest.

All of the US Spec FDs were rated at the same horsepower as they all had the same engine. The base model was the lightest, but the R1/R2 had stiffer suspensions, so Im not sure which was fastest.

Yep, but it's the R1s alright, but only if they're running synthetic oil. IF HE WOULD HAVE JUST SEARCHED we could have avoided another needless thread!!!
