There is very little difference mechanically.  I have a copy of the workshop manual for both versions at home but if you look here:

you will probably find what you're looking for.  The Australian market shared mechanical spec with Switzerland.

By memory (and this is nearly 30 years on mind) there were a number of early cars imported in '83 with UK spec and in different colour / trim combo's. They didn't have aircon either as I recall.
