a bit off topic but,
how do you tell if it's a S1 or S2 engine and why is it harder to go from S1 TO S2?

S1 has nice little black fuel rails, S1 has chunky ribbed silver ones.... S1 radiator has no cap but it has a hose running from the passenger side to the overflow tank, s2 radiator has a cap also the thick radiator hose from the drivers side runs to the top of the engine in an S2 but to the block in an S1

Split this from the other thread because it WAS off topic and it deserves to be it's own thread.

The ecoturd engine is a completely different beast to the old buick derived one that we're all blessed with. It's a very different engine, with a very different gearbox and a VERY different ecu. I don't know if the ecotec was used in any Lexcen cars. I thought that the VR was the last Lexcen produced, but I'm willing to be proven wrong.

The S2 Buick was used up until the series one VR's the series two VR's were the start of the ecotec.
 

What's the difference between understeer and oversteer?
Understeer is when the driver is scared.
Oversteer is when the passenger is scared.
