    Default Differences between ADM sprinter and JDM Levin

    Hey Folks,

    I am new on this forum. I am currently looking at a ADM 4age sprinter at the moment and I would just like to know the differences between this an a JDM levin apart from the engine obviously!! I have owned plenty of JDM ae86's already back in Ireland but I am new to the sprinters!! Also would I need an engineers report or anything like that for the engine change when I go to get a RWC on it? The shell I looked at is the cleanest shell by far I have ever seen and I have seen a good few!! I look forward to your replies and thanks in advance!!!

    Gearbox has the slave cylinder on the other side.

    More simplified bumpers.

    S series diff instead of T series diff.

    Drum rear brakes instead of mostly discs.

    Unvented front brakes, but otherwise the same diameter with an identical thinner calper.

    Different trim and fabric colours/options.

    Lower tech equipment, no chance of power windows, mirrors, or steering.

    Obviously you get 4ac motivation instead of 4age, so therefore you get a fuel tank with no baffles to suit a carburettor system.

    Different taillights.

    Different Grill.

    Different Dash cluster.

    Fuel lines run different across the transmission tunnel on a JDM car (to avoid exhaust)
    Exhaust hangers on gearbox mount in different position
    No bolt bolt holes for heat shields on ADM car
    No bung holes for power window/mirror looms to run through the shell (however the doors still have them -_-) in ADM car
    Doors have side intrusion bars on ADM car
    Windscreen is longer on a JDM car, to use a ADM windscreen you also need the ADM lower windscreen trim to cover the gap
