    Both the s1 and s2 boxes had lsd as std, the s1 box will go into a s2, but the s2 wont go into a s1 because they dont have the threads to fit the front mount to it.

    s1 boxes had a lower final drive ratio so acceration wil be better,

    you will just need to rob the bolts from the s2 to allow the cradle to mount the box, other than that itll fit straight in.
