Just thought I would start a thread of the differences between the two... mainly because I think other sprinter owners might be interested. Feel free to add any other I missed.
Engine bay: Oil cooler mounted infront of where the A/C condensor usually resides (if it has one).. off a little bracket that supports the bonnet catch. Nippon denso unit.. looks exactly like the transmission coolers found on magna's 
Washer bottle mounted back right corner ( to make room for the intake)
Interior: Dash was identical.. intrument cluster was mostly the same except the tacho goes to 7500, the speedo was a combined miles and KMH (like in my yank spec AW11). All of the warning lights had no text just symbols.
-Steering wheel was similar to AE-86 minus the "TWIN CAM" writing.
-Pedals were the same in spacing ( i thought it might be a bit more sporty ie level accel and brake ala AW11)
-Seats where bucketish.. they resemble the MA-60 is some respects but look lighter (doesnt have hte hard plastic backing) They didnt seem very supportive but might have needed re-bolstering.
-Door skins were vynal as opposed to the cloth ones in the sprinter.. all teh way back to the rear seats.
-top of rear seats vynal
Most people are familiar with the other differences IE
-Vented brakes on front, rear discs.
-LSD (crown wheel is same size)
-EFI Fuel tank and lines.
