Not sure on that one

It will only have one of these if u get a carb version, which arent very common i do not believe. Most of hte 84's are EFI (if not all)

depends upon the car, some do some dont. There is an option number to look for that will let u know if u have an LSD or not.

TC06 i believe was standard on these cars

JA Starions ran from 1982 to 1983. JB came out in 1984. Unless you have a very late build JA.

125kw at the flywheel

No... starions have ECI injection. They are not carbie.
lsd?
If it's a JA.. no. If it's a JB.. maybe. Have a look.
to5 or to6 turbo?
Most likey a TC06 turbo.. unless it's an import engine. Post some pics.

The JA has a scoop on the bonnet and 14" wheels standard! Probably the easiest way to tell what model, but everyone seems to have JA bonnets now...!?

Which beast did you get? Is it the two-tone one from Madeley or Landsdale? if so, I've seen that one, driven it, looked under the bonnet, etc.
Starion nutter since 1988...
1983 JA, 1984 JA, 1985 JB (all rego'd, all running :D )

Check the numbers on the right front strut tower - that will identify what the chassis was originally.

For some reason people have tended to modify Starions over the course of their life and "sometimes" panels, parts etc get swapped from JA/JB/JD series

ps - what colour is the car?
