Well my guy doing the 1/2 bridge on my motor just found out its an s4 motor. I went downstairs and weighed my rotors, sure enough 10.5#s. So I paid $1300 for a blown up ******* s4 peice of **** motor, that was suppose to be a fresh s5 motor. It did come with all s5 externals, and 1 busted rotor, 2 busted housings. Sweet! Hopefully he can find some s5 side irons.. S4 irons like to break around 400rwhp.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/angry.png

hmm i keep thinking my engine is s4.



what turbo did s5s have? ht18 or hx18?



kevin.

It had a bnr stage 3, s5 hyrbid/s5 exahust manifold

Is there really a differnce in s4 and s5 irons...........I cant see any difference.



The port size is the same........are S5 thicker around the oil filler or something? Just wondering cuz I recentley blew a S4 around the dowel pin on the rear.

s5 irons are reinforced on the rear iron around the dowel pin near the oil pedestal. Front iron is also reinforced.

no i mean stock turbos on the s4 and s5 were what? cause i have a turbo from my engine that was stock and would help me figure out what engine i have./

Well I guess Jim will no longer be the only one with an FD motor in his FC. Its on... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

Stock turbos on ALL FC's were Hitachi HT182S-S.



Only thing that changed with the S5's were a different exhaust housing.

That is all.

no ... s4 were hx18









and....el im using s4 housings on my s5 engine....

rotor housings? That doesn't matter. I will be using my current s4 rotor housings. But then again you aren't aiming for 550rwhp+...

yeah im using s4 housing with s5 irons





and no im not aiming for 550rwhp....you are...congrats?

Let me know I have 2 spare sets of plates if you need them now...unported

lemme get those, in fact you pay me to take them off your hands, its only fair https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



kevin.

Nah I already sold Revvin a set of housings, he got a pretty good deal, now if he needs a motor, he has first dibs.

Damn Camel loves to hook me up. I would not have ANY possiblity of having a running car this summer if it wasn't for him. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

camel roxors.



kevin.

If you need anything let me know. I may be able to convince my mechanic to make another engine cradle. He has a jig based on mine.



Let me know if you want one and I'll twist his arm to make another.

ok, I am still going to get an FD motor from one of mike's friends for a backup motor. I will give you a pm later on down the line when and if it happens.

Damn that car will be one hell of a money pit when its all said and done. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/ohmy.png

Not the stock S4 turbo is HT18 not HX I have one sitting here now as a paperwieght.Came off my 88 TII motor.

can you guys believe how far behind i am to this fag? it's not even funny anymore!

Well I lucked out; My irons are s5 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png My home scale must just be off with weight of the rotors. And to think I almost pieced together an FD motor https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

STFU NOOB! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

ive got an rew fc front subframe, i'm not gonna use

that is so tempting since i have a complete FD.... hmm

The primary port (on the combustion chamber side) is smaller on a Kouki - it opens 10-degrees later, but that really doesn't matter if you're going to port the housings. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



The Kouki side housings have significantly larger ports (on the manifold side) it's like 1/8" wider.



The Kouki stat gears are hardened, so that's a big plus for strength.
