R1's are the 93 "sport" model. The R2's are the 94+ "sport" models. The 93 FD's have some inherent flaws that were fixed in the 94+ models.

No. That is not the 93' R1 flaw. That would be a rotary problem in general. If it is coolant seals your motor is toast, you need a rebuild. You can usually do a test by either smelling the exhaust for a sweet smell like coolant, or an air pressure test.
