What were the differences in these?
Just had a brief look on the lancereggister and got all confused!
Whats the "best" one if theres such a thing
I.e
Rs2
GSR
Tommy makk.. (TME)
What were the specs/performance/visual differences?

RS is the semi stripped lightweight edition, GSR is just the normal evo with extras etc, tommy mack has colours/stickers/styling to look like the TME rally car

Rs2 - No AYC, has electrics unlike the RS which was used by Rally teams. There are diff specs from the factory though.
GSR - AYC, electrics, normal Evo
Tommy mak.. (TME) - AYC (can come without although v rare), electrics, quicker steering rack, titanium turbo, diff front bumper/alloys,lower suspension, red interior, rarer than GSR and worth a few k more.
Then you have the Monte Carlo TME which is fappin rare etc

The best IMO would be a TME RS or Monte Carlo, no AYC or electrics but these are ultra rare. Next best IMO is the Makinen, boggo RS is a bit too basic i.e no leccys/air con/recaros or anti lock brakes.

controls the amount of lateral movement by adjusting the damping levels IIRC

Nick that bumper looks different to yours (the white mote carlo)?
So is (was  ) your tme exactly the same as one with the graphics or does that differ

Bumper is same Tom just different side. The TME with graphics was an option at about £800 only available on the red ones, nothing different just a few graphics and white spoiler blade.
AYC has it's lovers and haters. Personally I found it fine and ok to deal with,others say it's dangerous. The key to it is trust the car and let it do it's thing, a lot of people have stuffed their Evos by trying to correct the AYC and this is where you will come into probs and maybe end up in a ditch

AYC = From the Evo 4 onwards (GSR models) Active Yaw Control was introduced. It is a type of active rear differential that helps to provide maximum traction to individual rear wheels according to sensed forces on the car and the drivers input.
