s4 or s5?
new to the forums but i see a lot of "s4 and s5" flying around, how can i tell if i have an s4 or an s5? my car is an 89 gtu/gxl (don't know how to tell that either) 13b engine non-turbo. Very baffled by the classifications on this car, but i love my rx, only had it for 2 weeks and my wife is already sick of it

86-88 = s4
89-91 = s5
You have an S5
They are the same car. They have some key differences, such as different intake manifolds, and the S5s have the more desirable tail lights. It's a common thing to swap the S5 tails into a S4. S5s also have the rubberized radio surround that is more durable than the plastic one found in S4s.
They both came with 13b, n/a and turbo.
Theres a lot more info in the FAQs.
