Had just got an AW11 MR2 accident car with a quite good condition 4AGE, but wondering if any other parts from the AW11 can be bolt on to sprinter.
I would like to know if there is any chance to swap the diff and rear disc brakes from the AW11 to AE86, I know they have different PCD on the brake but if the front brake can also be swaped with aw11 ones i dun care the whole car's PCD changes from 4x114.3 to 4x100. and how about the gearbox and clutchs? suspensions? surge tank and fuel pump? ........aircond? power window? power mirror?
If the gearbox from aw11 cannot be fitted into ae86, what gearbox shpuld i get?
And would also like to know about the pop up head lights from AW11. coz planning to get the whole aftermarket fibre glass bonnet, guard and full body kits, so I only need the headlight and the parking light, or may be some brackets that hold the trueno headlights.

no offence here, but you dont know ANYTHING about cars do you?
have a look at where the motor is in each car, then report back, save yourself and other people a lot of time.
this reminds me of a nightmare i had where someone converted a sprinter to Mid Mounted engine.

Harsh!! But fair.
The MR2 is mid-mounted. Think of it as a FWD car but with the motor at the back meaning it's transversely mounted.

Gwaijaitat, is your aw11 un-repairable? would be a shame to let it go to waste.

Haha... i know i can't use the drivetrain now, also i found a problem that is the 4age from the aw11, its intake is toward the firewall if after i dropped it in ae86...
well, the motor actually running good, all the things go fine before the accident, but after a crash with a truck and all four corners of the car smashed like shit now, all 4 corners panels and rear boot and doors gone, front left suspension gone. all windows broken except windsceen, front bumper still fine, popup lights also fine, has got a custom made stainless steel exhaust too, but the tips was damaged, fixible..
I know its a waste and i love aw11 too but the repair cost should be more then the market value of an AW11.
