RB25DET S1 S2 engine difference

Just got a new engine to drop into my 33. Came with a s2 engine and engine im putting in is a s1. Wondering if theres any difference between the two beside the coils which i can just swap over. Injectors, intake, accessories, etc all good to just plug straight into my s2 loom? Or should i just swap over the intake manifold side with my s2, just want to save some time.

alright sweet, changed the coils around, its already got a cas in the new engine so i assume the plugs are the same if they are different?

 

im pulling the engine with the gearbox on it, is there a way to stop the oil coming out the back of it? i know with my mates subaru we just used a lid off a spray can to block it off so no oil comes out the end. Anything similar i can do or do i need to drop all the oil (i changed it recently so would rather keep it)

all done, just had to swap out throttle bodys and the bracket for the throttle cable pretty much, they had slight differences, tps being the main thing. CAS was the same half moon.

Cars running good, water temps wont go higher than 70degrees though, guessing thermostat only thing that would cause it?

    • Does that price include the rack time to straighten the frame and body and replacement of parts and paint, as well as the noise and emmisions testing  The last engineering certificate I had done, albeit about 15 years ago, was around $1000 for a few inspections and the certificate 
    • 😂 thanks guys. The diagram i had did not have the breather on it at all. Much appreciated.  
    • Geez, engineers fees have definitely gone up. Mine back 2007 cost me all of $300. Mind you, I had to go back to him a few times to get him to write the correct things on the report after he'd inspected it. Things like wrong exhaust size, wrong wheel sizes, etc etc.
    • Can we see a scan of the original quote? The problem with engineers (and by this, I mean, all engineers across all engineering industries) is that there are "engineers" and there are "engineers" (you'll have to imagine the two different vocal emphases on those two versions of the same word. Engineering is a mindset - your farm kid who spent his life rebuilding the tractor will likely make a good engineer. The farm kid who spent his life taking photos of butterflies.. perhaps not. But on top of that mindset, the modern engineer has to learn how to write so that there is absolutely no way of being misunderstood. Proposals/budget estimates/quotations are one place where this is absolutely vital. You have to delineate your scope of supply with extremely hard boundaries, and anywhere where there is any possibility of not being able to have such a hard boundary, you need to write language that will cover you from scope creep, cost overruns, the inevitable interference of the client or their "engineer", etc etc. Now, if your clients are the BHPs and the Rio Tintos of the world, and similar, then you get good at this. If you are an automotive engineer, pitching work to the great unwashed masses, your skills in this area might not be well developed, because you're only dealing with knuckle draggers trying to get a big block legal in a Torana. And when I say "might not"....I'd suggest there's a better than even chance that any such skills might be completely absent. So, we might be able to look at your quote and see what the opportunities are for rebuttal.
