The engine compartments are basically the same.  I think the reason might be 
that people are not afraid to play around with an older (less expensive) 
4kq.  The basic expense would put the cost of the conversion on a 90 plus the 
car itself into a different bracket where the real thing (Ur-q) is 
affordable.  That's the only reason I'll be doing it on my 4kq.  If I 
had the money I would much rather buy an Ur-q.
Other than that it's the same job for both cars.
