You can use a box out of an sj or jimny, could even use a 1.6 vitaras with some mods

Hi,

You will have to use rear diff and so on.
Like Gary said, you can use SJ(small Jeep) gearbox. You need to watch out as some of them are 4 speed gearbox.
Some says that you can use Suzuki Carry axel but I would think you may be able to use a Justy rear diff as long as you can connect a prop shaft to it. How about even an Impreza Diff as they are a lot of and cheaply on ebay.
You have to mount an engine North/South direction.
I don't know what clutch, flywheel to use but I have seen so many of SJ with G13B engines.

Good luck
