Clutch Diff: s5 vs s4

i noticed there are two clutch kits on clutchmasters. one for the s4 and one for the s5. (listed differently though). can anyone shed any light on if there is a difference or if they are just trying to charge s4 guys more money.

I think he meant DIFFerences between the clutch for a S4 or a S5, not the 3rd member.

Weird.

N/A's are the same, but TII's lost about 5mm diameter from S4 to S5's... they shrunk from 240mm to 235mm if memory serves. The larger S4 clutch plate should fit the S5 flywheel though.
