Difference between S2 and RS2

[alg]

Did they come with specific "Aero" type windscreen wipers from the factory, to cope with the higher speeds better?

No aero wipers

As I read in RS246.com:
"...other modifications included a revised exaust camshaft and manifold and larger bore exaust system with metal catalysts"

Mouldings at the bottom of the doors are different.
Different PCD and wheels.

"connecting rod bearing shell" is the same for ABY and ADU - 034105701B

To be more specific, ETKA now shows the rod bearings for the 3B, AAN, ABY and ADU to be the same, i.e.:

034 105 701 - lower, yellow
034 105 701B - upper, yellow/violet

i

think that should read 1 tooth less, the wheel on the timing belt is smaller, thats why it turns faster. And the bearings are different as there are purple upper/big ends.

[lind4hl]

no the bearings for the rods

Didn't know about the water pump, part code is different, one blade less? ok.
Bearings.. you mean wheel bearings?
