S4 & S5 Differentials Interchangable?

yeah, as long as you stay N/A or T2, and don't try to swap gearing (for example a 3.9 pinion won't work with a 4.1 gear, and a T2 diff won't fit into a NA housing).

Maybe this will help
N/A 4.1 diffs are interchangeable only with any N/A 4.1 diff
N/A 3.9 diffs are interchangeable only with any N/A 3.9 diff
T2 4.1 diffs are interchangeable only with any T2 4.1 diff.
Series does not matter as long as it is a FC... only the diff size and gearing matters.

i see...
why are they not interchangable? seems kind of stupid for mazda to produce so many different differentials. usually its the same differential with different gearing.
different diff size?
different holes for ring and pinion on diff?
also is the T2 diff larger than na ones?

When Mark refers to the differential, he is only refering to this, no?
He isn't talking about the carrier and the case, which make up the entire assembly.
Mazdatrix also has a page on swapping diffs:
