from memory i dont think that they have different holes in the boot......the base of the wing is same for both models me thinks....same goes for the GTR wing too....dont quote me on it but i dont think that the holes are different at all

i normally see a S2 wing on S1's your going in the opposite direction....

Ok so I ended up buying a series 2 boot lid and wing to bolt on (hinges too).

I bolted it on and the boot lid would not latch shut. After some investigation I noticed the latch bit that bolts onto the lid is a different shape. I bolted the series 1 latch onto the series 2 lid and it now latches shut.

The only problem is that it now sits about 20mm too high at the rear. I found that I can adjust the latch on the car side by loosening 2x bolts and sliding it down.

I think this helped a little but not enough..

Does anyone know if there is any further adjustments that can be done?? Or could the hinges be different etc??

HELP!!!

Just changed my s1 wing to a s2 and found that the pointed ends of the s2 wing are longer than the s1 one by an inch or so. Maybe the s2 lid is slightly longer than the s1 one, thus not allowing you to fit in flush on your s1. Just a guess through inspiration from the wing as I could be wrong.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
