Clutch Question
So my question is this.. If the S4 and S5 transmissions are interchangeable how do I determine between getting an S4 or S5 clutch kit? If they are swappable does it matter which I use? Do I need the kit to match the trans or the engine and if the trans how do I determine which trans I have? Thanks for any help

ok got ya, but when choosing a clutch kit from RX7 world or Mazdatrix it gives me the option of 86-88 non turbo or 89-91 non turbo.
What's the difference?

hehe, yes I understand what model my car is.... the question is if I am using an S4 transmission on an S5 do I still use the S5 clutch kit or would it need to match the S4 trans

you should use the clutch kit to match the engine its a common miss conception. im sure there is probably no difference in the two kits. however the s5 engine did produce more hp. so i would get the s5 clutch kit because they may have made the pressure plate heavier for that reason. but in the end they will probably both fit on and both work.

Go with a S5 kit as the throwout bearing and fork differs from a S4, at least from the factory. Actually the factory disc and pp are also different from the factory, but aftermarket carries the same designation for both S4 & S5.
