Are S4 and S5 front subframes interchangeable?

I searched through all 10 pages under subframe and one person said yes.

I don't see why they shouldn't be..I Think I saw that you were looking for a S5 Contol arm KHAN..the S5's have the Non-removeable Ball joint..the S4's,you can Change them out,as they are Bolted onto the Contol arm...and the s5 and s4 Control arms are Interchangeable...(hope that is Info you can use)

^ wow I didn't know that (control arms) thanks! Yeah it looks like I've bent my subframe where it bolts to the control arm. I was told bending it out would weaken the metal so I'm changing the entire subframe. Good cuz I get to replace my control arm bushings which are shot. Sucks that I have to get stock replacements though just cuz they'll be here faster. $125 for two bushings from mazda
