Sorruy Monkeybone, we have AP1's in the UK and Europe, an AP2 is the 2.2litre American version, here we have the facelift version but it still has a 2Litre engine, and is not designated AP2.

Sorry mate but you're wrong...
Have a look under the bonnet of any 2.0 litre facelift model and you'll see it just says AP1, Honda only change the chassis code with a facelift when there's a different engine involved... is what they've been doing for the last 30 or so years with all models.
people just refer to them as AP2s cos all the americans and american webshops do, but if you're buying engine parts you might go wrong cos you'd have needed the AP1 bits.

Officially two variants exist: the initial launch model was given the chassis code AP1, while the AP2 designation was given to vehicles produced from mid-2003 onwards.
The 2004 model year incorporated several revisions to the S2000 and was given the chassis designation of AP2 (note: this designation was never used in the UK although the improvements to the vehicle were applied).
The AP2 also included the introduction of a larger version of the F20C for the North American market.
I did find this on another forum:
