Hi Rosco, not wanting to burst your bubble but the 4wd box only came out on the 4efe not the TE, so isn't that strong. But I am sure you can beef it up, but if you are talking 200hp atw then you may just lunch it after a short period. Also a guy on Austarlet has actually sourced a box and is in the process of installing it (but on a Starlet) but at least it would give you a good idea. Guys avatar is Hanimii I believe...
Cheers

Its actually tomvale13 on austarletclub that has an EP85 (only one in the country known) and is in a very long process of getting all the 4wd gear, sourcing it all from japan.....very long fustrating process, he is fully rebuilding it so you mite be waiting a while hehe. but another guy on the forum is trying to import a ep85.
Also he is using a 5E engine (1.5L not 1.3) along with either a TD04 or TF035 or some VF turbo lol, he cant make up his mind. anyways if you wanna read about it heres the link.
