it would appear its a smaller size rotor. if the size is 255mm for the front then it won't fit your car as the front brakes on the 01 on models is 270 i believe

I believe 16bit is on the right track
From what I can find and remember, the auto NB8B came with 15 inch wheels where the manual came with 16 inch wheels.
My guess the 16s were to clear the larger brakes.

Re: Difference between AT and MT OE Brake Rotors
Auto wasn't available for the 2001 model year, it was introduced in the 2002 model year, and it has smaller brakes (which I found out to my detriment after waiting 9 weeks for caliper brackets to come from Japan, only to find the dealer had ordered auto versions
)


Supreme Blue NB8B, 1:16.98 at Wakefield when stock, but it's not stock any more...
