Turbo starter on NA car?
I'm in desperate need of a starter and the earliest I can get one from the dealer is Tuesday. A friend has a spare turbo starter, spare auto starter and a spare 12a starter. Would any of these work on my 5speed N/A?

the 12A starter may be a slightly loose fit but i could be thinking old school 13B truck/sedan starters, though those will interchange with a turbo transmission and not an n/a. the turbo starters won't fit an n/a transmission, they are oriented backwards.
only one way to find out.

The starters are different and the splines are too...the flywheels are a different size so this adds up to NO.
Only thing that would be interchangeable is a AUTO N/A starter with a TII starter.The auto flex plate and TII flywheel are the same over all physical size and geared the same.,
