Are there any side by side shots people have of an S4 and S5 2nd gen? Are the fenders and doors basically the same? Trying to see if an '88 Vert and a '91 vert share those two parts.

 

Only differences are trim, bumpers, mirrors and tail lights. Heres my 87 with S5 trim (minus bumpers)

 

Thanks for the help man, much appreciated.

 

theres a difference between the s4/s5 rear bumpers?
i knew the moulding, tail lights, and front bumpers were different
but not the rear bumper
any pictures?

btw, White Rabbit
yes you can interchange the body panels
such as hood, fenders, doors, etc. (excluding trunk/hatch)

 

S5 bumper has more of a 2nd lip on the bottom, and the obvious molded in S5 trim.

 

I don't see a difference in the tail lights, and do all RX-7s have the circles as tail lights cause those look sexy.

 

^^ Referring to the pic above.

The left is an s4 and the right is s5. Reason why you cant tell the difference is because the s4 has s5 tail lights.

Also if the trim is painted a different colour and has a line through it, it's usually s4. Thats the easiest way to tell.

Here's my old 7, its an s4. Horrible camera sorry.

 

Is that S4 or S5?

 

s4

 

Can't you tell s4 are square, and s5 are circles.......?

 

I realized that, thanks for the information!

 

some of the S5's came with sideskirts too. not much of a noticeable difference but they are there on some. and the turn signals on the front bumper (not the side) are different.

 

can you fit a S5 front bumper on a S4 as a straight swap? or is some modification needed?

 

bump ^

I'd like to know as well.

 

Yes you can, I took my 91' front bumper and switched with my friends 86' bumper. No modifications

 

I want some S5 tails for mine, those are slick.

 

what are the differences between the s4 and s5 mirrors?

 

But I heard there were some problems with the turn lights, etc, when you are swapping the bumpers.

 

S4 aero mirrors have more of a square hard edged cut through them opposed to the sleeker S5 aero mirrors.

 

thanks hey which style has no hole in the mirror cuz i have a pair of s5 and a pair that has no hole in the mirrors

 

S4 nonturbo. S4 non turbo had no holes, S4 turbo were square like the nonturbo with a hole on the inside, S5 turbo and nonturbo are the same they are round with a hole. I think the s4 turbo mirrors are the best.

 

Do the swaps cause problems with the lights?

 

s4 GTU came with tii mirrors
