Back yes front No.

2. does the MA09 sit on the standard k10 engine mounts

Engine yes, gearbox no.

3. were they only sold in japan

Correct.

4. what is the MPG like?

About 28 ish. Not great for a little car.

5. is this the model that had aircon?

Most of them had aircon. You would be lucky/unlucky to find one that didnt.
