2-Pass is always VBR. It can be constrained via VBV though.

Wrong. Unless you explicitly pass "--slow-firstpass", which my GUI definitely does
not do, x264 will automatically run the
first pass with "turbo" settings.
So it's perfectly fine to pass the same settings for both passes and let x264 decide which settings can be lowered during the
first one
Of course it's up to you. You can always add the "--slow-firstpass" parameter to the "Advanced Options" edit box, if you really want a SLOW first pass.
