There is another difference that is performance oriented, if not suspension per se.
The TLS has a faster steering ratio than my '99 TLP. It was quite an adjustment from my '95 Prelude. I look forward to eventually replacing mine with new TL/TSX to restore the more driver's oriented chassis settings.

TLS rear sway bar is 1mm thicker than the TLP
TLS rims is 17 vs TLP @ 16
TLS has a wider turn radius than the TLP
RUMOR (things I'm not sure about):
TLS has firmer springs (if so...then can some1 say the numeric differences?)
TLS has firmer shocks (same as above. Saying "YES" doesn't help...give us values).

I thought there were only the TL and the TL-S available for the second generation. I guess Canada didn't get the TL-Premium version. What's the diff. between the TL and the TL-P ?

TL = TL-P
TL-S also has torque-sensing steering system instead of speed-sensitive steering in the TL-P
Also, different seats (perforated and firmer in the Type-S)
Higher compression ratio, resulting in 35 more horsepower at 260, compared to 225.
It's not proven, but some people say they have different exhausts systems, too. I think they are the same. But I don't know for sure. They sure look the same, that's for damn certain.
