Abbreviations
For all the new people to the forum, how about a little primer on all the abbreviations.
As this site has grown, more and more people have started using abbreviations, especially since text messaging went crazy. It's obvious that AP1 refers to original, "real" S2000 with the 9000 rpm red line (LOL), but what does AP1 and AP2 stand for?? Perhaps the moderator could post a list of all these now common terms for the new people to our forums. Would make it easier and friendlier navigating the site. Lots of people coming over from nissan, mazda, and other honda's who may be unfamiliar.

My point was the information is out there. There was lots more info as well. Quick and dirty and really the OP was looking for what AP1 and AP2 means not what the difference in the specs. Over all the meaning of AP1 and AP2 was it is a designation of the Chasis type.
