koni adjustables up front/bilsteins in the back.

the po did lower the front a little. headlites/driving lites are a little low.

i got the "S" in the settlement and will sit on it for a while.
i found an S2 and may try to acquire, not steal, it as the owner is looking at 5k for the new head.

before i get too far on the S2 acquistion would the electrics/mapping/anything else for the 3.0l be a problem to stuff the S motor into it without major problems?

im pretty sure the pickups for the sensors are totally different, and the displacement is diff, prob the clutch and flywheel as well. If you could pull it all and replace it all w/ s then yes it would run..

If you swap the DME, harness and motor, you should be ok. It would just be an engine swap.
