Tigger wheel is inside the block on the z18xe rather than on the end of the crank. Like the x18xe1 | |

When i trained as a vehicle technician/mechanic during my apprentiship i got taught the term fly by wire, where rather than the throttle body butterfly flap being controlled by ur foot and a throttle cable an electric steppamotor controls the flap and ur throttle pedal is a sensor which detects thottle pedal posistion which then the ecu uses this info to control throttle body flap movement and fuelling etc | |

i believe the term fly by wire is misused when it comes to cars, fly by wire is used to describe a plane where controls are electronic driven rather then traditional hydraulics | |

X18XE1 is a cable throttle and Z18XE is fly by wire. Don't know of the other differences though. | |

i think one of the differences in x18 and z18 is the head gasket is made from different stuff | |
