when you have suffered a crit that has you treat all turns as red manuevers, does the R2 units ability that allows you to treat all 1 and 2 moves as green trump the damage or does the damage trump the upgrade?
R2 droid ability
They're red, it's in the FAQ. (I think).

It is.
Basically, Crit-Cards trump all actual upgrades, unless those upgrades prevent the crits themselves.

Unless it's Swarm Tactics.
Thanks guys
Think of it in application order. R2 is applied to ship first as it is part of the build, that makes all 1 and 2 green. You take a crit and turns become red. This overrides the previous effect of R2.
This thought process works for VI + Blinded Pilot and quite a few other places as far as I can tell. Also then matches with the swarm tactics rulings!

Since you're going to cross-post, I will too 
This is just wrong.
This would actually be nice if it worked this way (well, except for having to remember when all effects came into play so you could order them, that could be annoying), but it's not what the FAQ says. The FAQ is actually rather directly unambiguous on what wins, and why:
Q: If two or more game effects conflict in changing the difficulty of a maneuver, which effect takes priority?
A: An effect that increases the difficulty of a maneuver takes priority over an effect that decreases the difficulty.
The R2/Damaged Engine case is used as an example for this, but it is not itself the ruling. There is no concern or consideration there of timing, or which started first. It's never even mentioned.
