was there any thing changed,updated etc from the 1st vr4 to the last prefacelift. what i mean by this is, the car was a new model in 1996 so there may have been some teething problems that were sorted out. just a thought

Recalls, you mean?
And of course the super bridged some of the gap between pre and post.
not recalls just is there any difference between a 96 car and a car just before the facelift came out (non super)
prefacelift auto had 260bhp, facelift auto had 280.
the hubs are different pre and post, as brembos dont fit a pre but fit a post
edit: sorry just saw your last post...understand a bit better. i guess with most cars there will be some crossover points, might have some late prefacelifts with the above^^, there might even be some facelifts out there with pre parts... our old blue galant was a crossover 98 model, and was a complete PITA! to get bits for. it had some facelift V6 parts, and some Prefacelift V6 parts.
.
My early facelift has the type S bodykit, the facelift body shape inc. the bonnet, and the facelift hub carriers. I don't have ASC and TCL as seperate systems, as many pre facelifts do.
Not sure what else could be pre-facelift? Although I think that the AYC system changed slightly at some point.
I don't think enough changed on the pre/post change apart from the above mentioned to warrant any cross overs.
from what I was told by my mechanic is that the first lot of AYC diffs in the 96- Early 97 were problematic and sometime in 97 were changed in some way. Same issues that the EVO 4 had.
I couldn't figure out what was changed between the 2 tho.
Have just peeped in CAPS to see what part numbers come up for the diff on my old leggie(Pre-Facelift) and my Galant(Facelift) assuming that the drivelines are the same between Legnum and Galant.

Any Suggestions??

I think that the pressure switch changed. MPBVr4 is the man to confirm that. I was under the impression that it changed from a normally open to a normally closed switch. I could be wrong though!
thats the kind of info i was looking for . not for any specific reason just seemed like a good thread to start
If there is a known problem with the first generation of AYC diff's you wouldn't expect them to list a seperate part number would you ?Originally Posted by CANDEE
