I don't think it is from a starion, their turbos are mounted in an upper position (the cordia's are in a lower position), and revers of the cordia. I have the (JDM) engine's turbo and manifolds on this car. And I didn't know that the Starions came with a G63.
And the writing would be on the wrong side for a starion (at least an A-spec one).
Here is a pic of the starion's valve cover.

Now with the rotors, I'm not sure, that dosn't sound right, they should be equal thickness on both sides, unless maybe it uses two different sized pads on the same caliper.

Sivart look at the picture of my engine bay, notice the words on the Valve cover are backwords.

More pics, including a full frontal for all those that have been waiting. The kit is not mounted, just hanging on the brackets. The red interior is not my doing, I'm planning to paint it back to black.

Valve cover mystery solved. The engine is out of a DSM Euro Van, thats why the head is shapped different with my valve cover writing in the other direction. It is actually a 4G63BT-T.
