Can some one tell me how you know the diff betwen the 13b (S5) and just the 13b just by lookin at it in the car

FrestyleFC3S 01-31-2004 08:56 PM

between s4 and s5...you can look at the thermostat housing....its plastic = s5....metal = s4



if looking at turbo engines.... the s4 turbo is ht18 and smaller.... s5 is hx18 and larger ... i believe thats correct at least



the alts are diff..but i dont know exactly

rx7kid2gtt 01-31-2004 08:59 PM

ok i have 89 na GTU do you think it is S5 or S4

talk to me in chat

FrestyleFC3S 01-31-2004 09:00 PM

ive never seen your car...therefore i cant make a decision?

Leetheslacker 01-31-2004 09:01 PM

if its 89, then its s5.

unless there was a motor swap in the past, which I wouldn't understand why someone would swap a s4 in, I'd guess S5 if its a 89.

did thay only come turbo ?

FrestyleFC3S 01-31-2004 09:03 PM

also....since its nA...you can check out the 5th and 6th port actuators.....



s4 is electrical....s5 will be mechanical...i dont know the visual differences here though
