I'll just use pics from the Members Ride section for this


The main quickly noticable differences are the front bars and the rears.. For more details on the rest, check out the link posted above

Tom, if I'm not mistaked the Pre FL rear shot is not a stock rear bumper and the sides skirts leading into rear bumper isn't stock either

Yeah that white pre-facelift has flares and side skirts which are not S1 gear.

Basically the S2 look newer and cooler ok. I am in no way biased.

LOL, hugh, I'm torn, love S2 rear end, but definitely like the S1 more from the front

Hi Dawso,

you back to the grind too today.

so that means you have it arse about face then......

Hugh, those end caps on that white car are on a lot of cars, I think they were an optional extra or possibly standard on late model prefacelifts, say 1998 cars.

 

[Kitty's VR4]

Hmmm, apologies Hugh, thanks for correcting me brad, you learn something everyday...

Yeah first day back..... Its not so bad though, was a bit of a bludge catching up on 200 emails

I do not have a face like an arse..... Oh wait.... What?

I'm the opposite to you, i like the fl front and pfl rear. Maybe i'm just weird haha

I'm the opposite to you, i like the fl front and Series 1 rear. Maybe i'm just weird haha

Man you really are weird.

But at least its easy to put a facelift font bumper on a prefacelift for that look.

I prefer the facelift front and rear, as its looks more modern in my opinion and the bonet has a larger buldge. But at the end of the day they are mainly cosmetic differences and are both awsome.

 

[Tom]

Atleast there are 2 styles available to suit everybodys preferences without having one lack performance compared to another

 

[bradc]

The auto prefacelift does lack performance though

 

[Guest]

auto series 1's are currently the quickest legnum AND galant in australia.

super vr4 > s2 > s1 (in my opinion, before someone cracks the shits and gets my posts deleted again)

Really?? i didnt know that, its my car, i had always thought they were stock lol.

thanx for using my ride dude, now u didnt get my consent so thats $50 cheers jokes :bigsmile:

 

[Kitty's VR4]

LoL Gareth, your special, bradc pointed out its an option or was the on bums of late pre-fl, I'd never seen it before.... which doesn't mean much......

 

[bradc]

The side skirts are stock too. What isn't stock is the wide wheel arches which are from Type S facelifts.

 

[Guest]

mines a 97 so maybe they are after market. i never really looked that closely at the bodykit before lol. meh ill learn as i go, there's so much extra stuff on this car i find something new every week lol
