s5 thermostat housing plastic piece on N/A's

[TitaniumTT]

HOUSINGS Ted, not the neck, the ENTIRE waterpump housings (which includes the waterpump along with the neck) ARE interchangeable. Reading comp.......

The only potential difference between two n/a waterpump HOUSINGS might be the therm sensor threads are different and a coolant hose might be in a slightly different location. Both of which are easy fixes.

On my RE, I fit an S4,5, and S6 waterpump housings. S6 needs longer studs and S6 e-shaft pulley to work though.

NO, THEY ARE NOT.
The water pumps are specific to the water pump housings.
You cannot fit an S4 water pump to and S5 water pump housing and vice versa.

Also, one of the combinations will not fit due to the front oil cover not having the correct "dent" to fit.
(I think S4 water pump housing fits on an S5 front oil cover but not the other way around.)

SO YOU'RE STILL WRONG.

Like I said before, stop spreading misinformation if you're not sure.

OBVIOUSLY the necks and the pumps NEED to be kept with the same waterpump housing, that's why I said the "housings" are interchangeable. As in the ENTIRE housing. Admitadley not the best choice in words, perhaps assembly? You take an S4 waterpump, an S4 T-stat neck and an S4 waterpump housing, now you have an S4 Waterpump Assembly. Take that and stick it on an S5. The S4 assembly WILL fit on the S5 front cover, how do I know? Because, a good friend of mine has done it.

Also, the S6 waterpump assembly will fit on a cosmo. How do I know this, becuase I've done it. If you want to get your panties in a bunch ted, you're wrong in saying they are not interchangeable. Maybe waterpumps and housings aren't, I am CERTAIN of that, but assemblies are. Stop spreading misinformation.

Jeez, are we done now?




If you're planning on making a water neck out of steel, I would make certain that it is coated EXTREMELY well. There is a chance that it could create a wee bit of electrolsis. Probably me just being paranoid from so many years (almost 20 now) being in and around the marine world.

Yep, but you're wording implies EVERYTHING is interchangable.
I KNOW the S5 "assembly" with NOT fit on an S4 front oil cover.
Why don't you admit you're _)@$%_)$ wrong.

Your wording implied NOTHING wsa interchangable, which is also wrong.

I never argued that.

Coming from you, that's hysterical. You have that problem. Like I said, are we done now?

I think I worded my replies a lot clear than yours.
I still think your English skills stink.

I never argued that.

How convenient...
You post such BS, it's not even funny.
You claim I've *NEVER* backed down and "I'm always right."
I've admitted I've fucked up a lot of times on the other forum - it's convenient that you don't seem to recall any of those times.
I've never see YOU admit you're wrong - pot calling the kettle black?
There's even a recent post about distributors and points that I've cleared admitted I fucked up.
Open yours eyes before you go accusing people WRONGLY like you're doing to me.
