Hi,

I'm new here and I'm hoping someone can help.

I've just picked up my newly imported 1994 Celica which I specified MUST be an SS2, and I suspect it is an SS1.

The reason for this is the information contained on the web page below:

http://hometown.aol.co.uk/duts001/myhomepage/auto.html

Specifically:

>>The way to tell the SS-1 from the SS-2 is by looking at the tachometer. The red line on the SS-1 starts at 6200 rpm while on the SS-2 the red line starts at 7000 rpm. From the rest of the cars appearance you cannot tell the two apart. <<

The redline starts at 6200, and the tach goes up to 8000 (in the [japanese] manual there is a reference that suggests the SS2 should go up to 9000).

How can I be certain whether mine is an SS2 or an SS1?

Apart from spending my budget on a lower spec car mad.gif , this can also present problems with my insurers, so any information or resource which will help me to confirm this and perhaps prove it would be invaluable.

Thanks.
