dan sorry I missed your post....
So My Australian model does have the A72 (Did Aus actually get A73?).
no
And The Australian dealers changed that naming tittle of the vehicle to LA/LB
no the Chrysler factory "assembled" LA's from parts, or so they say, I dont know how much "assembly" they did but they did give them a new chassis number and complied them to ADR's and attached a ADR plate at the factory in Adelaide.
Or is there more to it than that?
yep more but I dont feel like listing the entire parts book with all the little bits
So going by what people are chasing, and what is popular and in demand, Only the Japanese version is sought after?
um no but there is large interest in "JDM" cars and yank ones have pollution gear up the ..... Id like a 71 dodge colt due to its differences and despite what the tug mutttons say they are different, there is also the turbo Plymouth Arrow (which is not an LC hatch) that would be good to own, but in Lancers its the JDM ones that are the goods....(assuming you wouldnt go to Japan to but a povo spec Lancer that is, cause we have those)
Is that the equivilant of the Japanese version of the A73, and the Australian LA GSR?
no LA GSR's... never imported here by Chrysler
----------------------------------------------
Mine is the LA with A72 (1400), is that also different to the Japanese A72 (1400)?
different interior other than that Ive never looked? but Id assume ours is povo povo pove in comparison to the JDM one
Or is it only the A73 (1600)
A73 1600 only exist outside Aust (unless anyone has one that was privately imported) I wouldnt buy an A73 unless it was a GSR or I wanted to use a NZ A73 to build a replica works GSR but you may as well start with an Australian A72 but youd have more fun if you had a chassis number for an A73 on the car as 99% wont be able to pick if its a GSR or not if its a good replica.
