Lets see..
..........Starion....AE86
EFI:......Yes(SPI)....No
IRS:......Yes.........No
Turbo:....Yes.........No
Capacity:.2.0.........1.6
PW........Yes.........No
PS........Yes.........No
But note, ALL are single point injection (wet manifold) unless you have an MPI conversion like dravens brother and myself. This itself is not very straightforward either, and an ECU is required.
VR4 Heads do bolt on. But it is far from straightforward. Thermostat, CAS, Inlet, Exhaust all have to be modified or fabricated. VR4 blocks do not bolt to the Starion gbox.
Parts are VERY rare, especially later model Starions in Oz. They are an absolute ball to drive, and good examples (stock) scare the s13 boys. Modified they can haul ass. Just dont expect it to be cheap to run/modify/own. Reliability is dependant on what you do to them, as turnaround time for repairs are not short as most of the time is spent hunting for parts. Even Repco doesnt have a listing for them which is a joke. Turbos are hard to find also.
Compared to an MA61 is a fairer comparison.
but if the MA61 was modified (EG 1jz/7m-gte) it would only be fair to compare it to an imported widebody 2.6 starion, which would be very interesting to say the least.. [/edit]
