I dont think there was such a beast. All the awd seem to be automatics

I think he's talking about the little Rav that was available back in the day.

Ohhh ok my bad!
The more I look into this the more I realize why "no one" has done it. I think the transmission issue is the biggest hurdle. I cant find a viable option for a manual trans with an output shaft to the rear. Maritime, you may be right. The whole driveline may need to be swapped from a rav. Engine and all. But that's not too bad of a thing. The 2005 rav had a 2.4L making 160ish hp and torque. The 2L option making 140ish. If I'm going to go through the trouble of building and entire rear suspension/diff setup, may as well wire up a new engine.

the other issue you have to think about is many of those older toyota awd system are an unintelligent slip and grip type. Meaning you will obtain virtually no performance benefit from them except accelerating from a stop up to 40km/h. Take it from me, my '05 Vibe awd system is one of those older types. They are great for a grocery getter but lack any type of permance benefit the newer systems have

The amount of time and money this would take would be better spent with a WRX or sti purchase off the bat IMO

It wouldn't necessarily have to be a toyota diff in the rear. You could always get a custom driveshaft made to fit a honda diff

Would a Subaru or Audi quattro awd system be better for performance year round? Well of course. Basically, the goal is to take off from a stop, in snow, as easily as my old Suzuki (which had open diffs front and rear), and it doesnt destroy parts, I'd be happy. If I can drive it to work reliably, even better. Im not looking for year round performance. Im just a gearhead looking to challenge himself and create something one of a kind in the process.

I actually had thoughts of diffs with lsd options.

I wasn't referring to "dumb awd" systems as sub par per say, at least not in the off road, grip department. Hell, most true 4x4's are or were technically "dumb" systems. I meant for the systems that are not true 4x4 but of the awd variety that lack any "smart" sensor input they are pretty much useless for helping at all in cornering performance and even at moderately high speeds. But as you stated above this isn't necessarily what you're after so it doesn't really matter. I agree that buying the whole driveline from an older model vehicle would be the best bet. You will just need to figure out a safe and sturdy way to mount the system and have it all properly aligned before it is welded in. Then obviously running the engine and trying to somehow have it still connect the the interior creature comforts. You will also be battling with a mechanical throttle vs drive by wire. This sheds light on why many rather chose the path of making a rav4 handle like a yaris rather than converting a yaris to a rav4 (not specific to those vehicles). It is just simpler to adjust handling and suspension dynamics then a whole driveline. Either way it would be an adventure!

Going in the other direction, I saw a 3DR Mk1 RAV4 with a 3S-GTE swap at a rallycross. Insane hardly begins to describe that thing.
I have similar pipe dreams for making an AWD Mk1 MR2 some day, twin charged like a group B rally car of legend. In theory I can do it with the drivetrain from an AWD Previa but it will be Project Binky levels of fabrication to make it happen. |

Yep the AWD for the lifted Yaris with AT tires is not the same need or want as one for a lowered hot rodded engine rally/track Yaris for sure. If you can score a complete engine and rear end from a first gen 2 door Rav4 with an MT and a ECU you should be able to swap it all over with not too bad of work. I am sure your heater fan controls and all that will wire into the old ecu and a cable throttle should be adaptable from an older Echo maybe.

I know that there was a toyota fun cargo 4wd which means its drive train would work with a 1nz, I saw some in Malta, they get Japan Market models, so I'd guess it was available there too. Dont know if a manual was an option or if any of the parts would help you.
